Dear Mr. McCorkle:
I have reviewed the October 20th resubmittal information for the referenced building permit
application for the Planning Division. The height and elevation questions I had with the previous
round of comments were resolved — thank you. However, before I can sign off on the permit,
please address this one additional concern:
1. Landscaping gap on eastern property line: On the Planting Plan (Sheet L-2.0),
please incorporate additional Type I landscaping in the area where the northernmost
`hazardous pine tree' is to be removed. With the removal of that tree, there will be an
approximately 40 -foot gap in the landscaping between the proposed Douglas Fir and
the existing row of deciduous and fir trees which obscure the fagade of the existing
building.
Per ECDC 20.13.030.A, Type I landscaping is intended to provide a very dense sight
barrier to significantly separate uses and land use districts. The Type I requirement is
noted on the associated Site Plan (Sheet A-1.0) but plantings of that type were not
identified on the Planting Plan.
It may be possible to simply redline the necessary changes on the existing plan sheet. Otherwise,
please make all submittals to a Development Services Permit Coordinator, Monday through
Friday, 8:00 am to 4:30 pm. If you have any questions, please contact me at (425) 771-0220.
Sincerely,
Mike ClugstonrAl P
