RE: PLAN REVIEW COMMENTS #4 FOR PLAN CHECK # 2008-0156
VIOLATION AT 21010 76TH AVENUE WEST
Dear Steve:
Thank you for submitting the updated site and landscape plan showing the replacement of the
landscape buffers adjacent to the parking lot. Before I can sign off on the permit, however, the
following information needs to be clarified:
1. Deck: Per comments from the Building Division dated April 30, 2008, please show the
western deck and stairs on the site plan. Also, indicate how the structure meets
setbacks for the location. The BN-zoned parcel has a street setback of 20 feet adjacent
to 76th Avenue West. The south side setback adjacent to another BN parcel is 0 feet.
The north side setback, normally 15 feet since it is adjacent to an R-zoned parcel, was
reduced to 0 feet as approved in variance V-1-85. The rear setback, however, is still 15
feet since it is adjacent to an R-zoned parcel on the west and this setback was not part
of the variance request in 1985. Therefore, if the structure does not meet the above
requirements, it will have to be removed. A variance for the deck would not be
appropriate in this case since it was built without a permit - it would be a self-created
hardship.
You may redline your existing plans or submit three copies of your updated site plan (one
reduced size) and two sets of any updated pages of the building plans. Please make all submittals
to a Development Services Permit Coordinator, Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 4:30 pm,
except on Wednesdays when we are closed for permit review. If you have any questions, please
contact me at (425) 771-0220.
Sincerely,
Mike Clugston, AICP
