Dear Applicant,
I have reviewed the above building permit revision for the Planning Division and it was found that the
following information, corrections, or clarifications will need to be addressed before review can continue:
Maximum Height:
1. Unfortunately, it looks like the roof plan will have to be revised to meet the height
limit. Sheet A3 “Roof Plan” shows a flat middle portion of the roof. After checking into this further, I
was told to explain that pursuant to ECDC 16.30.030.A, footnote 1: “Roof only may extend five feet
above the stated height limit if all portions of the roof above the stated height limit have a slope of four
inches in 12 inches or greater.” Because not all portions of the roof above the stated height limit have
that pitch (the middle part is flat), then it will need to be revised. The middle part could be flat, but it
could not exceed 25 feet, so it would be a sunken depression in the roof. The rest of the roof could
have a 4/12 pitch (or greater) up to 30 feet in height. As we discussed at the counter, I would be
happy to explain this further and to help you come up with a solution that would meet the code.
Once you decided how your project will can the height limit, please submit a profile or elevation
sketch for review just to make sure we’re on the same page. The roof could look something like
this… I’ve made two crude sketches below (assuming the pitched portion is 4/12 or greater):
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). 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
