21.13.110 MDD5.
A. Purpose. The purpose of the MDD5 zone is to provide opportunities for community gathering, multifamily living and locally-oriented goods and services, enhanced by proximity to Marymoor Park, while supporting existing buildings and uses. Over time, as buildings reach the end of their useful economic lives or property owners decide to redevelop, a transition will occur, consistent with the vision for the Marymoor Subarea.
