RE: Plan Check: BLD2018-0936
Project Address: 7727 168th PL SW
Scope: Retaining Wall
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 highlighted changes 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 2nd Floor of City Hall. Permit
Center hours are M, T, Th, & F from 8am-4:30pm and from 8:30am-12pm on Wednesdays.
General:
1. The plans do not appear to have included any details of how the proposed retaining wall will be
constructed. The GeoTech report provided with the submittal is supplemental to the plans. Please
indicate on the plans the specifications as required by the GeoTech and or Engineer of Record.
The designs must be stamped a Washington State licensed Engineer and also have been
approved by the Geotech as well.
2. The attached Special Inspection and Testing agreement will also need to be filled out in its
entirety prior to permit issuance.
Additional comments may be generated upon the second review.
Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.
Sincerely,
Eric Carter
City of Edmonds
