RE: BLD-2007-0022 (First Review)
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:
Reduced Site Plan:
1. Please submit a reduced size site plan that is to scale. Please also check the
location of the north arrow.
Rear Setback:
2. Please change the rear setback line on the site plan to 15 feet (5 feet shown).
Height Rectangle:
3. Please clarify how you obtained the elevation of “Point D” – please review the
following code citation and respond in writing. If this is not how you obtained “Point D,” please revise
and update all height calculations accordingly. Please also update height calculations on the
elevations.
Chimney Height:
4. Please review the following code citation, highlighted for emphasis, and
revise/respond in writing:
ECDC 21.40.030 Height.
A. Height means the average vertical distance, from the average level of the undisturbed soil of the site
covered by a structure, to the highest point of the structure. (See subsection (C) of this section for
exceptions to this rule.)
B. “Average level” shall be determined by averaging elevations of the downward projections of the four
corners of the smallest rectangle which will enclose all of the building, excluding a maximum of 30 inches
of eaves. If a corner falls off the site, its elevation shall be the average elevation of the two points
projected downward where the two sides of the rectangle cross the property line. (See subsection (C)(1)
of this section for exceptions to this rule.)
C. Height Exceptions.
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.
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
