The purpose of this letter is lo respond to the Structural Elements of the City of Edmonds,
Development Services Department, letter dated October 14, 2002. Item numbers correspond to
the line numbers of the letter:
Item#5
I met with Mr. Henderson and inspected the items outlined in reference (a), specifically, the ridge
beam, the second -floor joist blocking and the shear wall nailing patterns.
Ridge Beam
Recalculation of the collar ties indicates that a 2x4 HF#2 post between the 2x4 above and the
Ridge Beam under each rafter is required. Mr. Henderson placed a 2x4 HF#2 post as required.
Floor Joists
Since there was no rim joist or solid blocking, solid blocking was installed between each floor joist
within 1 foot of the end of the joist.
Shear Walls
Mr. Henderson opened a section of approximately 8'X8' on the north side of the second floor. The
nailing pattern was inspected along a seam between OSB panels and found to be satisfactory.
Based on the above discussion, the structural portion of the remodel is satisfactory

To Whom It May Concern:
The purpose of this letter is to respond to the Structural Elements of the City of Edmonds,
Development Services Department, letter dated October 14, 2002. Item numbers correspond to
the line numbers of the letter:
Item#5
I met with Mr. Henderson and inspected the residence at the above address. At that time, I asked
Mr. Henderson to provide me with a copy of the City of Edmonds Letter, a set of plans for the
residence to include floor plans and elevations (if not to scale, then with dimensions). I was also
given pictures that were taken during the remodeling of the second floor.
I received the above information and plans in a timely fashion. I performed a lateral analysis of
the residence (See enclosure 1). 1 also performed a partial gravity analysis of the structure to
include the roof, upper floor floor joists and header in the main floor bedroom. Based on the
above information and analysis, the following will need to be accomplished:
Ridge Beam
Laminate 2-2x12 HF#2 beams along side the existing 2x12 HF#2 Ridge Beam using 1-16d @
6"oc (staggered) and use a 2x4 HF#2 post between the 2x4 above and the Ridge Beam under
each rafter.
Floor Joists
Mr. Henderson to pick a section where the size and type of joists and either the rim joist or solid
blocking can be inspected. If there is no rim joist or solid blocking, solid blocking will need to be
installed between each floor joists within 1 foot of the end of the joist. , - . .".. 1. -

Do you feel that you have fully responded to my letters and have no need to
ftirther respond?
Is your no -response order to your staff still in effect?
Is the Mayor in agreement with your answer or non -answer?
No response to this letter will be taken as an affirmative; and I will
understand that you and your staff will not respond unless legal action
against you forces you to respond.

Duane Bowman I)EVELOpMENT SERVICES
You can deny until you're blue in the face, but as usual the facts prove you a liar.
Your goal always seems to be to first deny any wrongdoing and to put as much blame on
me as possible.
You state, "We are not asking you to open up the walls." Then just exactly what does,
"Owner shall contact City Building Inspector for inspection — CERTAIN WALLS,
FLOORING ETC SHALL BE REMOVED TO EXPOSE CERTAIN ASPECTS OF
WORK" mean?
This is just another attempt of your office to cause unnecessary problems for me. It's an
extension of the do -not -respond order that you gave your staff.
Again... how many other residents have you given that order to? You and your staff s
attitude is, "Hey, this guy has no authority over us and can't hold us accountable for
anything we say and do; and no one reading his letters will hold us accountable either.
So just threaten him until he knuckles down. We cando and say whatwe wish."
To how many other residents have you denied stating that they would have to open up
walls when IN FACT YOU HAVE DONE EXACTLY THAT?
You are correct. I do not believe that you are trying to work with me. It's more like you
are purposely harassing me. You and your staff have repeatedly lied. You are colluding
against me and continually make things more complicated and difficult. Why do I have
to spend time writing this letter if it isn't directly related to your lying?
T t," w
1-o what's going through your heads now, "Do not respond." Avoid answering as
0 1 W
much as possible. Do not, at all costs, admit any wrongdoing and always blame him as
much as possible. He can't do a damn thing about it and no one else can either.
You make an effort to inform others of your last letter to me but you don't make an effort
to check to see if, in fact, what you are stating is true or not, and neither does any of your
staff or anyone reading the letters.

Over a year and a half ago, you stated that you require me to meet the minimum
requirements. You stated that if I have a civil and structural engineer inspect my building
project and put their official stamp on the paper, then you would consider that acceptable.
That was done by Reed and Associates over a year ago. You were informed that the
building was opened up and corrections were made; and that if you wish, Reed and
Associates would meet you at the sight before it was closed up. You chose not to, even
though it remained open for weeks.
Now you're saying that you want to go back to where we were two years ago; and you
now want me to again open the building up for inspection.
The carport has been looked at many times by your office. It is clearly visible and can be
easily seen by driving down the alley. Mike Snook looked at it two years ago.
I believe that this is another complication brought about by your order to your staff to not
respond to me. I believe that, again, your office is colluding against me on this matter;
and I am preparing a paper for the ACLU in regards to it.
I ask you again, has the City of Edmonds Building Dept. ever in Edmonds history
notified a resident that its staff is ordered to not respond to a letter directed to you by a
resident such as I? And have you ever demanded a fine for every letter a resident writes
to your department? I have asked you these and many more questions concerning your
department's actions and non -actions, but you and your staff still refuse to respond.
