RE: PLAN REVIEW COMMENTS FOR PLAN CHECK # 2011-0243
SFR 17804 VISTA DEL MAR
Dear Mr. Miller,
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:
1. Geotech report: Please have the project geotechnical engineer revise the associated geotech
report to address the critical areas requirements for erosion and landslide hazard areas found in
Chapters 23.40 and 23.80 of the Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC). Specifically,
please address the development standards in ECDC 23.80.060 and 23.80.070 and identify on the
site plan the required building setback (ECDC 23.40.280) and the slope buffer selected (ECDC
23.80.070).
2. Height calculations: Please verify the elevation of Point B of the height rectangle. It is
currently identified as `159.50 feet' while it appears to fall between the 158' and 159' lines of
topography. Also, since the "average level" for height is determined by the smallest rectangle
which encloses all of the building, please move Points C and D east to abut the proposed house —
the uncovered steps are not included in this case. Make any changes to the average grade, actual
height, and maximum height as needed on the site plan (Sheet 0) and elevations (Sheet 9).
You may redline your existing plans or submit three copies of your updated site plan (one reduced size)
and two sets of any updated pages of the building plans. Please make all submittals to a Development
Services Permit Coordinator, Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 4:00 pm. If you have any questions,
please contact me at (425) 771-0220.
Sincerely,
Mike Clugston, ACP
Associate Planner
