The Everett 12-story tower

Ten-year resident opposed: the building is twice as tall as everything around it, the site is small, existing trees and bird habitat matter, and the new Oregon Street access would be problematic on a busy block.

Opposed resident detailed a shading calculation (2.5 hours of lost daily sunlight), argued surrounding parcels are IM-zoned at lower heights, flagged density and floodplain/DNR questions, and said the site's four failed prior proposals warrant skepticism and a traffic study.

Registered in favor of the item and declined to speak.
