Everett: Downtown zoning workshop
Everett’s Planning Commission plans to talk about changes that could affect downtown business at 6:30 tonight in the eighth-floor hearing room of the Wall Street Building, 2930 Wetmore Ave. City officials are considering code changes that would allow more uses in downtown basements or other odd building spaces. These changes are intended to help bring more businesses into downtown as well as help property owners lease unusual spaces.
The city also might review the definition of “microbrewery” to include boutique distilleries or wineries, so these types of uses could be permitted in the downtown core, as long as they accompanied a small tasting room or other retail space. Commissioners do not plan to make any decisions tonight.
