Dear Mr. Thienes: ,
F It ( i
tr
1 -:E
Associated Earth Sciences, Inc. (AESI) has prepared this letter to summarize the work that has
been completed' at the subject site. The demolition of the derelict structures has been
completed in accordance with the recommendations of AESI and the permit requirements
established by the City of Edmonds.
jWork on the site began on February 17, 2004 with the required pre -construction meeting.
ef
Erosion control measures including the silt fence along the west side of the property, the
quarry span construction entrance, and the gravel roads, were completed by the contractor
under par -time observation by AESI.
AESI completed a site visit on May 5, 2004 and observed that the derelict structures had been
removed to the concrete foundations. All voids and depressions had been backfilled with "hog
fuel" . The erosion control measures noted above remain in place and are performing
adequately.

our opinion that• the permitted demolition work may .proceed at any tune, provided that the
following conditions are met, -
1. Prior to commencing work, a pre -construction meeting should be held with Associated
Earth Sciences, Inc. (AESI) to review the approved plan and permit requirements, and
coordinate inspection/demolition activities.
2: Access and site preparation, site demolition, and' restoration work should be completed
during periods of no rainfall. If significant precipitation occurs on a given workday,
work should be suspended, the site stabilized, and work should not, resume until
precipitation has stopped.
3. All work must be executed in accordance with the approved permit documents.
4. AESI will provide daily construction monitoring on a part-time basis, as the work
progresses. Daily field reports will be provided to Thienes/Williams Architects, PLLC
with copies to the City of Edmonds.

RE: 15604 751h Place West
Dear Mr. Thienes:
GARY HAAKENSON
MAYOR
This letter is written to you as representative of Cheung Calvin Trustee and the subject property. As a
follow-up to your telephone message to me yesterday, the purpose of this letter is to confirm the
Fong's decision to demolish all three buildings/out-structures on the subject property by the City 's
established deadline of February 22, 20040
As you are aware, there are currently two demolition permits associated with this property:
o Permit #2003-0647 for the house and carport and,
Permit #2003-0648 for the shed and utility building; the work on both permits must be
completed by February 22, 20040
However, due to the property being located in the designated Meadowdale Landslide Hazard Area, if
the Fong's geotechnical engineer of record prohibits work to be completed from now until spring of
2004 (due to wet weather conditions) a letter must be submitted to the City stating this determination.
If such a letter is provided prior to February 22, 2004, the City shall extend the life of the existing
demolition permits to June 1, 2004. Note, this date is not arbitrary as the dryer season for Meadowdale
has been established by City Ordinance'to be from May Is' to September 301h which gives the Fong's
31 days to complete the demolition work (i.e., May Is` to June 1s1, 2004).
If you or the owner have any questions regarding these date requirements and actions contact me at
425-771-0220 extension 1226. If you wish to meet in person please call in advance for an appointment
as I am not always immediately available.

RE: 15604 75s' Place West
Dear Mr. Thienes:
GARY HAAKENSON
MAYOR
This letter is written to you as representative of Cheung Calvin Trustee and the subject property. In
response to your request for an official determination on the three vacant buildings at the subject
property, the City Building Inspector met the property caretaker and performed an inspection from the
exterior of the building, to determine if any of the buildings or appurtenances were considered to be
dangerous as described in Chapter 3 of the 1997 edition of the Abatement of Dangerous Building Code
(ADBC). Based on this inspection the following is my determination
♦ Regarding the building on the southwest portion of the property; the building • may remain
provided it is secured (doors and windows boarded) from unwanted entry by children, vagrants
or animals. If the owner chooses to board the building the work must be done by December 19,
2003. Failure to meet this deadline shall result in a determination of dangerous building
pursuant to ADBC Section items, 9,12, and 17 (copy of code enclosed) and appropriate action
shall be taken by this department.
♦ Regarding the building on the southwest portion of the property; the building may remain
provided it is secured (doors and windows boarded) with the exception of the porch --which is
determined to be dangerous according to ADBC Section 302, items 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, and 9, (copy
of code enclosed) and must be removed. If the owner chooses to remove the porch and board
the building, the work must be done by December 19, 2003. Failure to meet this deadline shall
result in a determination of dangerous building pursuant to ADBC Section items, 9, 12, and 17
and appropriate action shall be taken by this department.
o Regarding the building on the northwest portion of the property, this building is in a partial
state of demolition. The majority of the roof structure is removed exposing the interior of the
building to weather and animals. This building is determined to be dangerous according to
ADBC Section 302 items 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 15, 17, and 18 and shall be abated by complete
demolition by first obtaining a demolition permit from the City. The owner is required to
obtain a demolition permit by December 1, 2003 and have the work complete within 180 days
of permit issuance. If the geotechnical engineer of record prohibits work to be completed until
spring (due to the site location in the Meadowdale Landslide Hazard area complex) a letter
must be submitted stating this determination.

Questions concerning requirements of Oripinal,^aermit
1, Silt Fence — Discussed the requirement for the entire property to have a silt fence:
A. Geotech suggests fence at each strvdture rather than the entire property length.
B. The silt fence ditch digging can cause it own silt problem so one only in the affected areas would reduce the

potential for silt.'
C. The road covering is screened thus eliminating the silt from that process.
2. Road covering —There is a conflict between N2 of "Methodology &Sequence" that calls for 4' to 8" screened P

I visited site on 11/6/03, to verify if any dangerous buildings existed at 15604 75`h
Place West. I was met onsite by the caretaker, Milt.
The first building that was looked at was located on the Southeast portion of the
property. The building appeared to be structurally sound, except for the porch and porch'
cover on the South side of the building. They both appeared to be hanging away from the
"{

k: It f„ building, which appeared to be hanging down. Most of the windows had been broken

The third building was located on the Northwest side of the property, and
appeared to have been partially taken down. Most of the roof was gone, and there were
several stacks of lumber that appeared to have been salvaged from the building.
It appears to me that only the northwest building could be considered a dangerous
building, due to the fact that a portion of the building had been previously taken down.

RE: 15604 75 h Place West
Dear Mr. Thienes:
October 23, 2003
In response to your letter dated March 26, 2003 received by the City on October 16, 2003 I have the
following response:
1 • Regarding nondisclosure of information on the property sale, the Fong's may want to contact
their real estate agent who presided over the transaction.
2. The City has adopted the 1997 edition of the Abatement of Dangerous Building Code under
City Ordinance #3215 (a copy of the ordinance is available from the City Clerk for a fee). This
code allows the Building Official to determine that a building is dangerous, declare a public
nuisance and require it -to be abated by repair, rehabilitation, demolition- or removal. The
Fong's obtained a permit to demolish, if they have changed their mind and now desire to repair
or rehabilitate the structures, a building permit is required prior to the startof work.
3. A design professional is not required in order to file a demolition permit application, however,
the City will grant an extension for filing the demolition application to November 14, 2003
including all applicable permit fees. If the Fong's decide to repair or rehabilitate the existing
structures, I shall require that a letter be submitted by November 14, 2003 describing the scope
of work for the project and schedule of work (start and completion dates). The repair building
permit application, including full plans and fees, shall then be submitted by December 15,
2003.
4• ECDC 19.00.010F1, establishes the time frame of demolition permits at 180 days (copy of code
section enclosed).
If any of the established time frames cannot be met the City requires that a letter be provided with an
alternate submittal date. If you or the Fong's have any questions regarding this letter please feel free to
contact me at 425=771-0220 extension 1226. If you wish to meet in person please call in advance for
an appointment.

Re: Stop work information letter 8 Oct 03

41iir vC e:✓,n✓Ir✓d
Dear Ms Graf:
This letter is to acknowledge receipt of this letter by Vivian Bennett and 'Tommy Fong, present
owners, and to make some comments and questions concerning the letter:
1. When the Fongs purchased the property, they had no knowledge of the "Stop Work Order" and
fiirther their application for demolition was made with no knowledge of this "Order" and the
subject did not come up during the considerable time it took to get their permit. It seems curious
that during all the communication with your department this subject did not come up.
2. Your second paragraph indicates that a permit is required to do demolition. We understand this.
What is not understandable is your implication that the Fongs are required to demolish the
I
tructures. If that is the case will you please supply a copy of the ordinance that requires it.
3. In your third paragraph you state that a new application must be filed by October 22. The Fongs
received the letter yesterday. That date is impossible to meet particularly when the necessity for
demolition is in question. Nothing in your letter to Aldridge indicates the necessity to demolish
the structures; only that a permit is required for demolition. The Fongs are not capable of
applying for the permit on their own and I will be out of town until 27 Oct. Clearly your
requirements need a professional to perform the application.
4. I also have trouble understanding the period that the permit the Fongs obtained was valid only
until the work cut-off date this year. Usually permits, especially as complicated as that one, are
valid for a year. I find no rational reason that the permit should not be valid for another working
season. Are you sure you are correct?
In conclusion the first step is to show that the Fongs must demolish those structures. We should be
provided paperwork showing this requirement.
Thank you for assisting us in this matter.
For VW= Bennett

Demolition Permits #2003-0647 & #2003-0648
To Whom It May Concern:
The purpose of this letter is to inform the property owner of the subject parcel, that the subject
demolition permits expired on September 30, 2003 without project approval. For background
information on April 27, 1998 a Stop Work order was issued on this property for demolition
work commencing without the required demolition permit (see enclosed copy of stop work order
and City letter dated 4/28/98). In response to this Stop Work order, demolition permits were
issued to Calvin Cheung Trustee, unfortunately since the demolition permits have now expired,
and the work is not complete, the property is again in violation of the code.
Pursuant to my authority under Edmonds Community Development Code Chapter 19.05 which
regulates property located in the Meadowdale Landslide Hazard Area, I shall require that the
current property owner obtain new demolition permit(s) and complete the work subject to
geotechnical approval. The demolition permits shall be conditioned to include the following
required of a geotechnical engineer: 1) the geotechnical engineer shall determine start of work,
2) required temporary erosion control, 3) protection of exposed soils and hydro seeding, and 4)
site winterization requirements after work is complete.
For convenience I have enclosed two permit application forms and indicated the areas that need
to be completed and the required permit fees. Please complete the forms and return to the City
Building Department with full payment by October 22, 2003. Be advised, the demolition bonds
associated with the subject permits shall not be released until the work is complete to the
satisfaction of the City.
If you have any questions regarding this directive please immediately contact me at 425471-

RE: 15604 75s' Place West, Edmonds
April 28,1998
The purpose of this letter is to notify you that a "Stop Work" Order has been placed at property
you own at 15604 75a' Place West, (ownership verified by Snohomish County Assessor's office),
The stop work was placed because demolition work had commenced on buildings without the
required demolition permit(s). This is a violation of Section 106 of the 1994 Uniform Building
Code and Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC) Chapter 19.05 and is subject to
penalties as outlined in ECDC 19.00,080 and ECDC 20,1106
As you know from your meeting on 1/22/98 with City Officials, the property is located in the
designated Meadowdale Earth Subsidence Area and is subject to strict development requirements
of ECDC Chapter 19.05. Therefore, the stop work shall remain in force until a demolition
permit is issued by the Building Official. Please be advised, the typical Meadowdale permit
process is six months to one year to obtain permits and groundwork is limited from May 1' to
September 30th. In order for the demolition permit to be issued at a minimum, the City shall
require that you enlist the services of a licensed professional geotechnical engineer to provide a
detailed report as outlined in the Meadowdale packet. This report shall be reviewed by third
party review and full review fees are paid by the applicant. A demolition plan shall also be
required that details existing structures to be removed and provides temporary and permanent
slope protection or site restoration in accordance with the geotechnical engineers'
recommendations. Note, double permit fees and investigation fees will be assessed upon permit
issuance since work started prior to permit issuance.
Our records indicate that you have already purchased a Meadowdale Earth Subsidence packet
and we recommend that you provide a copy to your geotechnical engineer for review. To
reiterate no work that requires a permit shall continue at 15604 75`h Place West, Edmonds, until
further notice from the Building Official,
On a sidenote, Jim Waite, Water/Sewer Supervisor has informed me that a City maintained
grinder pump is located on site. He would like the opportunity to remove it at your earliest
convenience, please call him at 425-771=0235 extension 649.
If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at 425-771=0220.
