RE: PLAN REVIEW COMMENTS FOR PLAN CHECK # 2009-0427
TH
SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCE DEMOLITION AT 520 – 7 AVE. S
Dear Mr. Schmaus:
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:
Geotechnical Letter
1.: Since the residence is located within the minimum required 50-foot
buffer plus 15-foot building setback from the top of the steep slope, a letter is required from
your geotechnical engineer addressing the removal of the residence. The letter should state
that your geotechnical engineer has reviewed ECDC 23.40 and 23.80 and that the removal
of the residence is in compliance with the requirements of these critical areas code chapters
and will not compromise the stability of the slope. The letter should provide any
recommendations your geotech has for site stabilization, consistent with the requirements
of ECDC 18.30, during and after the demolition of the residence. Will any stock piles be
stored on site during the demolition? If so, where does your geotech recommend that they
should be located, and should they be covered? Should a silt fence, or other method for
temporary erosion control, be placed near the top of the slope to avoid materials going onto
the slope during the demolition? Any additional recommendations your geotech may have
regarding the removal of the residence should also be provided within the letter.
Please make all submittals to a Development Services Permit Coordinator, Monday through
Friday, 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
