Project Address: 6920 172 nd St SW
Scope: Addition, SFR, VB Construction, Plumbing and Mechanical included.
Please be advised that the building plans for the above referenced project have been disapproved
for the purposes of obtaining a building permit. During a review of the plans by the Building
Division for compliance with the applicable building codes, it was found that the following
information, clarifications, or changes are needed. Reviews by other divisions, such as Planning,
Engineering, or Fire, may result in additional comments that require attention beyond the scope of
this letter. Items that recur on this list appear in italics.
A complete review cannot be performed until the revised plans/documents, including a
written response in itemized letter format indicating where the 'clouded' or otherwise
hi2hli2hted chan2es can be found on the revised plans, have been submitted to a Permit
Coordinator.
Resubmittals must be made at the Development Services Department on the 2 d Floor of City Hall.
Permit Center hours are M, T, Th, & F from 8am-4:30pm and from 8:30am-12pm on Wednesdays.
General:
The proposed project is required to meet the minimum prescriptive requirements of the
Washington State Energy code as indicated on page 7 of the submitted plan. The new
space must also elect additional energy credits from table R406.2. With a proposed space
of 912 square feet, you will need to select 1.5 applicable credits from the table and
indicate on the plans.
2. The proposed addition exceeds 500 square feet and will require "whole house"
mechanical ventilation in accordance with M 1507.3. If this is intended to be an "ADU"
the system is only required to ventilate the new portion, if this is truly an addition the
system must accommodate the entire home. Please indicate on the plans.
3. Carbon Monoxide detectors are required on each level of the home and outside every
sleeping area. Please indicate on the plans.
4. Interconnected smoke alarms are required to be installed as part of the project. The
alarms are to be located inside every sleeping room or area, outside each sleeping area
and a minimum of one alarm on each level of the home. Please indicate the smoke
alarms on the plans.
Additional comments may be generated upon the second review.
Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.
Sincerely,
Eric Carter
