preparing a Development Permit
Application fbr dw City of Eftonds prior to
his/her submittal of a development permit to
the City.
The puipose of the Checklist is to emble
City staff to determine whether any potential
Critical Areas are or may be present on the
gubject property. The infomadon needed to
eproplete the Checklist sbauld be eagly
available frem observations of the site or
data available at City Hall (Critical Areas
inventories, maps, or soil surveys).
Aa applicant, or his/ber representative, must
:fill out the cbecklist, sign and date it, and
submit it to the City. The City will review
the checklist, make a preemsory site visit,
and make a determination of the subsequent
steps necessary to corEplete a development
permit application.
With a signed copy of this form, the
applicant should also submft a vlcM4 mW
or plot plan for Indivi diW lots of the parcel

Project Name: L I Permit Number: I I
Site Location: L23700 - 104th Avenue W. I Property Tax Acct #: 1 3627 033 032 00 00 1
Project Description:
Non -Project Specific
Determination: Study Required:
During review and inspection of the subject site, it was found that the site appears to contain
and/or is adjacent to a Steep Slope Hazard Area pursuant to Chapter 20.15B of the Edmonds
Community Development Code (ECDC). To determine if a Steep Slope Hazard Area does
exist, a topographic survey prepared by a Licensed Land Surveyor delineating Steep Slope
Hazard Areas must be completed. Any slope of 40% or more with at least 20 feet of rise will
be classified as a Steep Slope Hazard Area. A 50-foot buffer is required from both the top and
toe of the slope. A 15-foot building setback is required from the 50-foot buffer.
For development of any kind which is proposed within the critical area, 50-foot buffer or 15-
foot building setback, it must be shown that the'development will not adversely impact the
Critical Area or its buffer, by doing one or possibly both of the following depending on the
outcome of the study:
I . For development proposals which will occur within the 50-foot buffer, but no closer
than 10 feet from the top or toe of the slope, the 50-foot buffer requirement may be
reduced to 10 feet if a study is completed by a licensed geologist or geotechnical
engineer which clearly demonstrates that the proposed buffer alteration will have no
adverse impact upon the site, the public or any private party. All Critical Area Studies
must be completed by a licensed Geotechnical Engineer (as defined in ECDC
20.15B.020.Y) or under a three party contract where the City hires the professional
required, and the applicant pays for the study (pursuant to ECDC Section 20.15B. 140).
2. If development must occur within the critical area, buffer, and/or buffer setback, and is
not identified as an exception per ECDC Chapter 20.15B, a Reasonable Use Exception
and Variance must be obtained pursuant to ECDC 20.15B. 170A and 20.15B.040C.
All proposed development of the subject lot must meet the requirements of Chapter 19.05
(Building Permits - Earth Subsidence and Landslide) of the Edmonds Community
Development Code.
If the property owner wishes to apply for a specific development permit which they feel
would not impact the Critical Areas located on the site, they may submit their proposal to
the Planning Department for review. If the Planning Department finds that the proposed
development permit will not adversely impact a Critical Areas or its buffers, a conditional
waiver may be issued on a project by project basis.

HICKMAN PARK FENCE, 23700 104 TH AVENUE SW NOV 13 2009
EDMONDS, WASHINGTON OUILDING DEPAR7MENT
CITY OF EDMONDS
INTRODUCTION
TIiis technical memorandum summarizes our observations, conclusions, and recommendations
related to proposed fence installation within a critical area at 23700 104th Avenue SW for Hickman Park,
a recently constructed public park in Edmonds, Washington. Our services were provided in accordance
with Task Order No. 09-20 with the City of Edmonds (City).
We understand that a portion of the proposed fence is to be installed within an identified critical
area pursuant to Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC) Chapter 23.40; specifically, some of
the fencing will be located within areas of steep slopes which are classified as erosion and landslide
hazard areas. The proposed fence is a 6-ft high chain -link fence supported by 2- to 3-ft deep posts spaced
every 10 feet.
At the request of the City, Colin Turnbull of Landau Associates visited the subject property on
November 12, 2009 with City representatives Brian McIntosh and Rich Lindsay. The purpose of the visit
was to assess the proposed installation regarding compliance with City development and building permit
requirements as contained in ECDC Chapter 23.40 and 23.80.
OBSERVATIONS
Hickman Park is a 5.6-acre parcel bounded to the north and south by residential properties, to the
west by undeveloped land, and to the east by 104 1h Avenue West. The Park is relatively flat, with the
exception of the northwest comer that is bounded by a slope that rises in height towards the west. The
crest of this slope is occupied by residential properties built on relatively flat areas. The toe of this slope
is relatively flat and is currently used as a wooded trail within a part of Hickman Park. Generally, the
slope is relatively well vegetated with low brush, ivy, and a few scattered young and mature coniferous
trees (6 inches to 3 ft in diameter) with occasional mature deciduous trees. However, loose, sandy, fill
130 2nd Avenue South a Edmonds, WA 98020 - (425) 778-0907 * fax (425) 778-6409 * wvvw.landauinc.com
soil from past grading activities, presumably from residential properties along the crest, was observed
along the upper half of the slope extending for a distance of about three lots east of the northwest property
comer. In addition concrete and asphalt rubble (partially buried by fill soil) along with yard waste
(recently cut tree limbs and branches)'was observed on the surface below two lots located east of the
northwest property comer. Along the slope crest, some residential property owners have constructed
short (less than 4 ft in exposed height) retaining walls. In particular, a 20 ft Iona, mortarless, concrete
rubble wall with a 10-degree batter has been built on the slope where the slope is at its greatest height,
near the northeast comer and appears to have been there for some time. The wall shows no distress in the
form of bowing of settlement. Based on the survey line stakes and line present on site, the location of the
wall face is about 2 ft within Park property. In the same area, a short, timber (pressure -treated wood),
crib -block wall has been constructed on the slope crest and a chain -link fence has been constructed up the
steepest slope section by residential property owners. Both the crib -wall and existing chain -link fence
show no signs of distress (undermining, leaning, etc).
Based on visual approximations, the slope is about 30 ft high and with a relatively uniforlil grade
of about 60 percent. The properly is located in an area mapped geologically as being underlain by
Advance Outwash which typically consists of sands, gravels, and cobbles (Minard 1983). At the time of
our site reconnaissance, we did not observe any evidence of severe erosion, active landsliding, or other
recent instability within or immediately adjacent to the slope area. Such evidence would include irregular
topography, bare soil scarps, groups of toppled trees, backward leaning trees, and/or springs and ground
water seepage on the slope.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
It is our conclusion that the fence installation location is within both an Erosion and a Landslide
Geologically Hazardous Area as defined in ECDC Chapter 23.80.020. However, it is also our conclusion
that the fence installation does not pose "ail unreasonable threat to the public health, safety, or welfare oil
or off the development proposal site". We suggest, however, that the fence line be adjusted in the
northwest comer to be installed in front of the existing concrete rubble wall, offset about I ft from the
wall toe, rather than along the currently surveyed property line to avoid disturbance and additional
loading to the wall crest. We further recommend that fence posts not be located within the root mass of

HICKMAN PARK FENCE, 23700 104-rH AVENUE SW NOV 13 2009
EDMONDS, WASHINGTON I�UILQING DEPAR7MENT
ciTY OF EDMONDS
INTRODUCTION
This technical memorandum summarizes our observations, conclusions, and recommendations
related to proposed fence installation within a critical area at 23700 104th Avenue SW for Hickman Park,
a recently constructed public park in Edmonds, Washington. Our services were provided in accordance
with Task Order No. 09-20 with the City of Edmonds (City).
We understand that a portion of the proposed fence is to be installed within an identified critical
area pursuant to Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC) Chapter 23.40; specifically, some of
the fencing will be located within areas of steep slopes which are classified as erosion and landslide
hazard areas. The proposed fence is a 6-ft high chain -link fence supported by 2- to 3-ft deep posts spaced
every 10 feet.
At the request of the City, Colin Turnbull of Landau Associates visited the subject property on
November 12, 2009 with City representatives Brian McIntosh and Rich Lindsay. The purpose of the visit
was to assess the proposed installation regarding compliance with City development and building permit
requirements as contained in ECDC Chapter 23.40 and 23.80.
OBSERVATIONS
Hickman Park is a 5.6-acre parcel bounded to the north and south by residential properties, to the
west by undeveloped land, and to the east by 104'h Avenue West. The Park is relatively flat, with the
exception of the northwest comer that is bounded by a slope that rises in height towards the west. The
crest of this slope is occupied by residential properties built on relatively flat areas. The toe of this slope
is relatively flat and is currently used as a wooded trail within a part of Hickman Park. Generally, the
slope is relatively well vegetated with low brush, ivy, and a few scattered youn,- and mature coniferous
trees (6 inches to 3 ft in diameter) with occasional mature deciduous trees. However, loose, sandy, fill
130 2nd Avenue South a Edmonds, WA 98020 - (425) 778-0907 e fax (425) 778-6409 e www.landauinc.com
soil from past grading activities, presumably from residential properties along the crest, was observed
along the upper half of the slope extending for a distance of about three lots east of the northwest property
comer. In addition concrete and asphalt rubble (partially buried by fill soil) along with yard waste
(recently cut tree limbs and branches) was observed on the surface below two lots located east of the
northwest property comer. Along the slope crest, some residential property owners have constructed
short (less than 4 ft in exposed height) retaining walls. In particular, a 20 ft long, mortarless, concrete
rubble wall with a 10-degree batter has been built on the slope where the slope is at its greatest height,
near the northeast comer and appears to have been there for some time. The wall shows no distress in the
form of bowing of settlement. Based on the survey line stakes and line present on site, the location of the
wall face is about 2 ft within Park property. In the same area, a short, timber (pressure -treated wood),
crib -block wall has been constructed on die slope crest and a chain -link fence has been constructed up the
steepest slope section by residential property owners. Both the crib -wall and existing chain -link fence
show no signs of distress (undermining, leaning, etc).
Based on visual approximations, the slope is about 30 ft high and with a relatively uniforin grade
of about 60 percent. The property is located in an area mapped geologically as being underlain by
Advance Outwash which typically consists of sands, gravels, and cobbles (Minard 1983). At the time of
our site reconnaissance, we did not observe any evidence of severe erosion, active landsliding, or other
recent instability within or immediately adjacent to the slope area. Such evidence would include irregular
topography, bare soil scarps, groups of toppled trees, backward leaning trees, and/or springs and ground
water seepage on the slope.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
It is our conclusion that the fence installation location is within both an Erosion and a Landslide
Geologically Hazardous Area as defined in ECDC Chapter 23-80.020. However, it is also our conclusion
that the fence installation does not pose "an unreasonable threat to the public health, safety, or welfare on
or off the development proposal site". We suggest, however, that the fence line be adjusted in the
northwest comer to be installed in front of the existing concrete rubble wall, offset about I ft from the
wall toe, rather than along the currently surveyed property line to avoid disturbance and additional
loading to the wall crest. We further recommend that fence posts not be located within the root mass of
an established tree. Select fill debris at fence post locations should be removed and all yard waste should
be removed as well to allow plants to re-establish and provide surface stabilization benefits.
ECDC Chapter 23.80.060 requires that alternations of geologically hazardous areas or their
associated buffers may only occur for activities that:
