Dear Mr. Kim:
I have reviewed the above building permit application for the Planning Division, and it was found that the
following information, corrections, or clarifications will need to be addressed before review can continue.
Site Plan:
1.Refer to the enclosed sample plot plan and plot plan checklist for the items that should be
shown on your site plan. Please revise your site plan so that it includes all applicable items listed in the
checklist, including the following changes:
a.Topography on the site should be shown at 2-foot intervals. Additionally, the steep slope area on
the southern side of your property south should be shown at 2-foot intervals and labeled as a
Landslide Hazard Area.
b.The legal description is stated on your site plan as Homeview Addition No. 2, Lot 23. However, the
dimensions provided do not match the dimensions of Lot 23 of this subdivision (see attached).
Therefore, please confirm the legal description of your property and provide the correct dimensions
of all four property lines.
c.Show and label the existing fence.
d.Provide the lot area.
e.Your building plans indicate the proposed length of the deck including the stairs as being 55 feet;
however, the length is labeled on your site plan as being 35 feet. Please correct this discrepancy.
Setbacks:
2.Your property is located within the RS-12 zone. The minimum required side setback from
the western property line is 10 feet; however, the proposed deck and stairs are shown as being 5 feet
from the western property line. Therefore, please reduce the size of the proposed deck and stairs so that
they remain a minimum of 10 feet from the western property line.
Lot Coverage:
Lot coverage is defined as the total ground coverage of all buildings or structures on a
3.
site measured from the outside of external walls or supporting members or from a point 30 inches in
from the outside edge of the eaves, whichever covers the greatest area. The maximum allowed lot
coverage for properties within the RS-12 zone is 35%. Please provide lot coverage calculations on your
site plan. These calculations must include the footprint of the existing residence, the footprint of the
proposed deck and stairs, and the footprint(s) of any other existing structures. Additionally, please show
that the proposed lot coverage will not exceed 35% of the net lot area.
Please make all submittals to a Development Services Permit Coordinator, Monday through Friday, excluding
Wednesdays, between 8:00 am and 4:30 pm. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at (425) 771-
0220, ext. 1224.
Sincerely,
Development Services Department - Planning Division
