RE: PLAN REVIEW COMMENTS #2 FOR PLAN CHECK # BLD20170398 & BLD20170399
NEW SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCE AND DEMO AT 20902 HILLCREST PLACE
Dear Mr. Houston,
I have again reviewed the above building permit applications for the Planning Division. Please
address the following comments in a cover letter and through the submittal of updated reports
and plans with changes called out. My second round comments are in italics:
Datum- oint: Addressed. On the Site Plan, please label the datum point used as the
basis for the height calculations along with its elevation, whether actual or assumed.
The fire hydrant or water meter east of the lot would be solid points of reference (see
Handout B41 for guidance).
2. Height calculations: The southwest height corner elevation shown on the site plan
indicates '394.25' while it should probably just be '94.25' and identified in the height
calculation call out. Please verify and update as necessary. Also, update the building
elevation sheet (A 3.0) to show the proposed height of the building (appears to be
121.37').
3. Lot coverage: The lot coverage appears to calculate out as 17.1% as opposed to 16.9%
- please verify and update as needed.
On the Site Plan, please verify the calculated structural lot coverage and update as
appropriate.
4. Geotechnical report: Unaddressed. 1 spoke with Mr. Free but haven't seen the
updated report yet.
Please have Mr. Isaacs update his January 20, 2017 report to address the proposed
demolition and construction in accordance with Chapter ECDC 23.80. The report must
be prepared in accordance with ECDC 23.80.050 and specifically address the
development standards in ECDC 23.80.060 &.070. The determined setback and/or
buffer needs to be shown on the Site Plan as well as the TESC and Stormwater plan
sheets (A.02 & A.03).
5. Notice to title: Partially addressed. The City will file but the documents have not been
received.
Pursuant to ECDC 23.40.270.13, sites with field -verified presence of critical areas
and/or critical area buffers for which a permit application is submitted must record a
notice of the existence of the critical area and/or critical area buffer against the
property with the Snohomish County Auditor's Office as a condition of permit
issuance. Attached is a Notice of Presence of Critical Areas for the subject lot; please
have it signed and notarized. Prior to issuance of the building permits, this form must
be recorded with the Snohomish County Auditor's Office. Options for recording
include:
a. Provide the City processing fee of $100 plus the County recording fee of $76 for
each lot ($73 for first page and $1 for each additional page), for a total of $176,
and the City will record the notice for you;
M
b. Take the covenant to the County and record it for the County's recording fee of
$73 for one page plus $1 for each additional page, and return a copy of the
recorded notice to the Edmonds Planning Division with the Auditor's recording
sticker on the copy.
All referenced code sections are available here:

Please submit two copies of any updated plan sheets and reports. Make all submittals to a
Permit Coordinator, Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 4:30 pm (8:30 am to 12:00 pm on
Wednesdays only). If you have any questions, please contact me at (425) 771-0220.
