By splitting the Northgate PD property into two separate ownerships, each property will be less than 40 acres, a threshold for Development of Regional Impact review. The major change between the original Northgate Master Plan and the proposed Gateway Plaza and revised Northgate Master Plans regards the elimination of multiple family and office /medical uses in favor of all commercial land uses. 3. Concurrency and Facility Capacity Traffic generation between the two projects, Gateway Plaza and Northgate PD (noted below) provide for the same cumulative traffic generation as the original Northgate PD approval, i.e., 33,282 average trips per day total. 18,971 ADT's are allocated to Gateway Plaza for up to 235,000 square feet of commercial development. All PD's such as Northgate were vested when the City adopted concurrency management in 1992. Other facilities and services required by the Gateway Plaza PD are available or, in the case of drainage, required per regulation. City wastewater, potable water, fire, police and solid waste services will be provided. 4. The proposed commercial uses are consistent with the Future Land Use Plan Planning Recommendations - Page 1 Element of the Comprehensive Plan which reflects a designation of 1 -4 High Intensity Development. 5.

A traffic circulation plan for the site shall be submitted with preliminary subdivision plan. Such plan shall reflect internal circulation within the overall site and as well as transportation requirements necessary to provide adequate circulation in the immediate area and between adjacent property.

Smith Canal, i.e., bridges between the two developments, shall be shared on a fifty -fifty cost basis between the property owners of respective sides of the canal.
