On behalf of the Planning Division, I have reviewed the above resubmittal of building permit application.
During review of the subject submittal, it was found that the following information, corrections, or
clarifications need to be addressed. Please respond to the following items, so that I can complete my
review:
Accessory Dwelling Unit
1.: During review of your floor plans, it was noted that the proposal still
includes the installation of a kitchenette in the basement. While the stove has been replaced with a
kiln, the City considers this space to be a second kitchen, and thus a covenant must be recorded at the
County stating that you are aware that an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) permit must be approved
separately from this building permit application if you intend for the basement to act as a separate
dwelling unit apart from the main residence. Even if you do not intend for the basement to act as an
ADU, the purpose of getting this statement recorded is to protect any future owners from thinking that
the house contains an approved ADU. I am enclosing the City’s ADU handout as well as the
covenant that must be recorded at the County. Please review and sign these materials. Note that
signatures must be notarized and signed in black ink. Also note that due to the County’s restrictions
on margins, the covenant must be printed on legal sized paper and cannot have writing located within
the margins. You may either get the covenant recorded at the County on your own for $62, or you
may turn it in to the City to record it at the County for you for $82 (the County’s $62 recording fee
plus a $20 City surcharge fee).
If you are interested in applying for an ADU permit, you are welcome to contact me on application
procedures.
Please make all submittals to a Development Services Permit Coordinator, Monday through Friday, 8:00
am 4:30 pm. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at 425.771.0220 ext 1223.
