Dear Mr. Kleven,
I have re-reviewed the above building permit application for the Planning Division and it
was found that the following information, corrections, or clarifications will need to be
addressed before review can continue:
08/15/06: These are the exact same comments I had for the last two reviews – please
note that the Planning Division cannot approve your building permit application until you
address these items. If you have any questions about the information that is being
requested, please contact me at 425.771.0220 extension 1778 and I would be happy to
go over it with you again.
1.Setbacks: The minimum side setback in the RS-12 zone is 10 feet. However, as
shown, the proposed deck is located 8 feet from the south property line. Please
revise the plans and site plan to meet the minimum 10-foot setback requirement.
2.Height: The plans show that the proposed deck has a height of 6 inches to 8 feet.
Please revise this figure (if it changes) due to the new location of the deck.
Accessory structures cannot exceed 15 feet in height, as measured from average
original grade. Please clarify: was the height figure provided measured from
average original grade?
3.Geotechnical Report: Thank you for providing a geotechnical report, required
because this site is on/adjacent to a landslide hazard area. However, there is
information missing that is required by the Edmonds Community Development Code,
Chapter 23.80 (Geologically Hazardous Areas). Please review the following code
Page 1 of 2
sections (attached and available online) and have the geotechnical engineer touch
on the following areas:
a.ECDC 23.80.050.C: The geotechnical engineer needs to make a statement that
they have reviewed the deck plans and the site plan (a copy of these needs to be
included in their report). Please review attached code section…
b.ECDC 23.80.070.A.2: This section deals with the alteration of critical areas.
Because your plans are IN the critical area, the geotechnical engineer needs to
make statements regarding items in this section of the code, assuring that as
designed and sited, there will be no impact to the critical area and to neighbors.
Please review attached code section…
Thank you for your cooperation. Please redline plans or submit three sets of revised
plans/documents (affected sheets only) with a written response to each of the above
items. Please make all submittals to the Development Services Permit Coordinator
(Marie Harrison) Monday through Friday, 9am to noon or 1pm to 4pm. If you have any
questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at (425) 771-0220, extension 1778. I
look forward to working with you on this project.
Sincerely,
CITY OF EDMONDS
Gina Coccia, Planner
