RE: PLAN REVIEW COMMENTS FOR PLAN CHECK # 2008-0025
ST
NELSON MOTORS PARKING LOT AT 7512 221 PLACE SW
Dear Mr. Perry:
I have reviewed the above building permit application for the Planning Division and found that
the following information, corrections, or clarifications will need to be addressed before review
can continue:
Pedestrian Walkway.
1.A condition of ADB approval (ADB-07-83) indicated a
requirement for the inclusion of an appropriately identified pedestrian walkway
within the parking lot according to ECDC 16.60.030.B.3(a). Please indicate such a
walkway on the site plan and describe how it is set off from the surrounding
pavement by use of alternative texture, color and/or composition.
Lighting.
2.Please indicate the type and height of the proposed light poles on the
north, east and west boundaries of the site. According to ECDC 16.60.030.C.3, poles
may be a maximum of 25 feet in height but must minimize glare. Glare can be
minimized through the use of cut-off fixtures or by using lower poles along property
lines. Please indicate whether or not the suggested light bollard at the top of the steps
is to be included with the plan.
Landscape Plan.
3.Several issues need to be addressed prior to final landscape plan
approval:
a.Square footage. As described in the ADB approval for the project, a minimum of
472.5 square feet of interior landscaping is required (27 stalls X 17.5 sq ft of
landscaping per stall per ECDC 20.13.030.E.1). Please indicate the amount of
interior landscaping provided. The Site Plan delineates three landscaping
triangles as L/S which should be included in the calculation as would the north
and south planting islands adjacent to the central parking stalls. Those areas
identified as 4 diagonal painted lines adjacent to the central stalls could be
applied toward the interior requirement as well, if landscaped (if necessary).
b.Irrigation. Per ECDC 20.13.020.E, the parking lot must be irrigated. Please show
the location and details of the irrigation system on the landscape plan.
c.Landscaping bond. Please provide a cost estimate for the installation of all
landscaping materials, plantings and irrigation systems. This information will be
used to determine the appropriate landscape bond (ECDC 23.13.040).
Please make all submittals to Marie Harrison, your Development Services Permit Coordinator,
Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 4:30 pm; we are closed Wednesdays. If you have any
questions, please contact me at (425) 771-0220.
Sincerely,
Mike Clugston
