Dear Applicant,
I have 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:
Height Calculations:
1. The height calculations provided show an Average Elevation of 75.16 and a
Maximum Height of 105.16. Sheet A1.1 shows a Max Height of 106.16 and an Actual Elevation of
105.58. Please revise height calculations to be consistent and to meet code. Please make sure that the
elevator penthouse and the chimneys do not exceed the height limit, except as provided in the height
exceptions below:
ECDC 21.40.030.C.3:
Elevator penthouses, not to exceed 72 square feet in horizontal section, or three feet in height, for
that portion above the height limit;
ECDC 21.40.030.C.4:
Chimneys, not to exceed nine square feet in horizontal section or more than three feet in height,
for that portion above the height limit. In RM districts, chimneys shall be clustered. No multiple-flue chimney shall
exceed 39 square feet in horizontal section. The first chimney shall not exceed nine square feet in horizontal section, and
other chimneys shall not exceed six square feet in horizontal section;
Setbacks:
2. The site plan appears to show a slight projection (windows) on the east and west sides of
the building into the setback area. Please revise site plan so that nothing (besides permitted
exceptions) goes into this setback area.
Landscaping:
3. Please review the attached ADB meeting synopsis regarding the conditional approval
of file number ADB-2006-0028 attached and respond to the following items.
a.The ADB required additional landscaping between the landscape wall and the east property line
to screen the block wall from the property to the east. They would also like the Pinus Nigra
relocated. Please revise the landscaping plan as necessary.
b.The ADB required that the planter area between the two garage doors on the north and the south
ends of the building project twice as far as shown on the plans. Please revise the landscaping
plan as necessary.
c.The Planning Inspection fee for landscaping is equal to one percent of the landscaping estimate
($65 minimum charge). Please provide a landscaping estimate so the inspection fee can be
calculated.

Lot Coverage:
4. Just to clarify, are the decks included in the building footprint area provided (2800
square feet)? If not, please add the deck area to the lot coverage figures on the site plan and make
sure that the total lot coverage of all buildings/structures does not exceed 45% of the lot area (or 2970
square feet)
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 (Theresa Umbaugh) 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
