NEW RESIDENCE AT23917 74AVE. W.
I have reviewed the above building permit application for the Planning Division, and it was
found that the following information, corrections, or clarifications need to be addressed before
review can continue:
Proposed dispersion trench in thewetland buffer
1.:The proposed stormwater
dispersion trench is located within the35-foot wetland buffer.According tothe
Edmonds Community Development Code(ECDC)23.50.040.F.8.c:
Storm water management facilities, limited to outfalls, pipes and conveyance
systems, storm water dispersion outfalls and bioswales, may be allowed within
the outer 25 percent of a standard or modified buffer for Category 3 or 4
wetlands only; provided, that:
i. No other location is feasible; and
ii. The location and functionof such facilities will not degrade the functions or
values of the wetland.
Please have the consultant’sreview thestormwater improvements inthe wetland
buffer and provide an addendum to the Altmann Oliver Associates report dated
February2, 2015addressing thetwo criteria referenced above.If the functions and
values of the wetland would be degraded by the location of thestormwater facility,
the consultant will need to propose mitigation based on the requirements of ECDC
Section 23.50.050and Sections 23.40.110 –130.
Wetland buffer:
2.Please revise sheet C2 of the stormwater pollution prevention plan and
locate thefilter fence along with construction fencing on thewestern boundary of the 35-

3.Please amend the average building elevation and maximum building
heightnumbersshown on the elevation plans(SheetsA1and A2) to reflect the elevation
numbersshown on the site plan.
Please Note: Additional comments from the Building Division and Engineering Division
may require additional changes to the site plan beyond those discussed above. A revised
site plan addressing the above cited issues should be completed once you have received
comments from the other reviewing divisions.
Please submit three copies of your revised site plan (including one reduced copy) and two copies
of any revised building plan sheets to a Development Services Permit Coordinator. Our office
