RE: PLAN REVIEW COMMENTS FOR PLAN CHECK # 2011-0152
PATIO REPLACEMENT AND RETAINING WALL AT 505 PARADISE LANE
Dear Mr. Bodine,
I have reviewed the above building permit application for the Planning Division. Before I can
sign off on the permit, however, the following information needs to be clarified in a written
response:
Critical Areas: As you know, the replacement patio and proposed retaining wall are
located at the top of a steep slope which has been identified as a critical area (erosion
and landslide hazard areas). As a result, you will need to submit a report by a
geotechnical engineer describing the impact of the patio and retaining wall on the
critical areas. The geotechnical report must include the requirements found in ECDC
23.40.090 and 23.80.050, and specifically address the development standards found in
ECDC 23.80.060 and 23.80.070.
Please submit three copies of your updated site plan and two sets of any updated sheets of the
building plans. Please make all submittals to a 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 Clugston, AICP
