(1) The City will periodically evaluate the effectiveness of the SMP update for achieving no net loss of shoreline ecological functions with respect to shoreline permitting and exemptions. At the end of the first full year after adoption, and at the end of every other year thereafter, the Shoreline Administrator shall prepare a report documenting shoreline substantial development permits, special use permits, and variances, including the exempt use activity approvals and the locations and effects of each by type and classifications. The report should include activities involving development, conservation, restoration, mitigation, and enforcement. It should summarize the net change of developments (including new development and decommissioning of structures and protected areas) using indicators, such as linear length of stabilization and flood hazard structures, number of overwater structures (e.g., piers and docks), road length within shoreline, number of water body road crossings, number of levees/dikes, acres of impervious surface areas, acres of vegetation, acres of permanently protected areas, or areas with limited development. Compliance and enforcement activity will also be tracked.

(2) The Shoreline Administrator will, to the extent feasible, coordinate with other City departments or adjacent jurisdictions to assess cumulative effects of shoreline development. [Ord. 4314 § 2, 2016; Code 1970 § 29.01.840.]
