RE: PLAN REVIEW COMMENTS FOR PLAN CHECK # 2014-1126
NEW SFR AT 7309 164TH PLACE SW
Dear Mr. Bosler:
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 and through submittal of updated plans:
1. Zoning: Please update the zoning designation on Sheet C1 from RS -10 to RS -12.
2. Datum point: On Sheet C1, please label which permanent monument was chosen as
the datum point for the height calculations for the building.
3. Rockeries: On Sheets C1— C3, please show and label the short and tall rockeries
described in the associated geotech report dated August 29, 2014. Also, since some
grading is proposed north of the house, add to Sheet C2 the geotechnical
recommendation from the report which states: "No fill is [to be] placed above existing
grade within 10 feet of the short rockery."
4. Lines of elevation: On Sheet Al or A2, please show and label the lines of average
original grade, maximum allowed height, and proposed height of the structure.
5. Garage encroachment: On the site plan (Cl), the main structure and projections are
shown to meet the required RS -12 setbacks or exceptions (patio, eaves). However, it
appears that a corner of the garage wall may actually encroach into the south street
setback (Sheet A4). Please verify and revise as appropriate.
All referenced code sections are available here:

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 (8:00 am to 12:00 pm on Wednesdays only). If you have any
questions, please contact me at (425) 771-0220.
Sincerely,
