Silver City – Retaining Wall
nd
15719 72 Avenue West (RS-12 Zone “Lot B”)
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:
1. The height of the retaining walls shall not exceed three feet in the setback area, as measured
from top of wall to original grade. The topography lines shown on the site plan appear to be original
grade, and if this is the case, it appears that the top of the wall is higher than three feet above original
grade (which is not permitted unless a variance is first approved). When we last spoke, I was sure
that you mentioned these walls are cut into the slope – could you please prove this on the site plan by
showing the original topo lines? If you are already showing the original topo lines, please reduce the
height of the portion of the walls in the setback area to remain under three feet in height.
Thank you for your cooperation. Please provide a written response to the above mentioned items. And,
please redline your plans to reflect any changes – or, if you are submitting new plans, please submit 3
site plans (one must be reduced size) and 2 sets of the changed pages of the plans. Please make all
submittals to the Development Services Permit Coordinator (JoAnne Zulauf) 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
