Project Address: 19620 815 Place W
During re -review of the above noted application, it was found that the following information,
corrections, or clarifications are needed. Please redline plans or submit two (2) sets of revised
plans/documents (affected sheets only) with a written response to each of the items below to a
Permit Coordinator.
1) 8/28/07 Please provide general roof framing plan for the kitchen, stair and living room area
only. I am still confused by the written roof framing description. The kitchen layout and
skylight plan shows the ridge and rafters but what is supporting the ceiling joists, what
happens at the living room/stair area etc. More information is needed for me to know for sure
the walls being removed are non-bearing. Provide general roof framing plan to show that the
walls being removed are non-bearing.
2) 8/28/07 response states that there are no new walls. It is my understanding that there will be
new interior non-bearing walls between the kitchen and dining room. Please provide typical
wall detail for these walls. Provide typical wall detail for proposed walls (i.e. 2x4 @ 16" o.c.,
double top plate, etc.).
3) ok
4) ok
5) ok
6) 8/28/07 Please clarify response. So new stairs and landing will meet current code (7 %" max
rise, 10" min run and 36" landings? Also, door at the top of the stairs will be 36" minimum?
After reading the response to this original correction I also realized that the front door will be
replaced. Current code requires a minimum 36" side hinge door for the main exit out of the
building. A 61"French door would not meet this. Please also clarify on response. According
to your conversation with Ann Bullis, Assistant Building Official at the counter, it is not
possible for the new stairs to completely meet the current code. Provide stair detail for proposed
stairs (rise, run, handrail, headroom, etc.) and clearly show the stair that will be 1116" higher.
Please also supplement the detail with a written request for modification from the code
explaining the reason the stairs can not be constructed to meet current code. Also, a 36" door at
the top of the stairs to maintain the landing and stairway width is required. If this is not possible
please also include this in your written request for modification.
