19. Provide topography elevations along the west side of the alley. Based upon a visual inspection
of the alley, it appears as though the alley slopes to the west. Please revise Section A -A to

by a project on the west side of the alley. The City will not require another full -width overlay
unless this section of the alley is re -graded. Utility trenches shall be patched per City of
Edmonds standard detail E2.3.
Sheet 2 of 2 — Development Plan Notes & Details

1. The existing water meter box is shown to be the datum or benchmark for this project. The water
meter is located in the sidewalk on 5th Ave S. As this meter box will be removed during
construction an alternate datum should be established, specifically for confirming height calcs.
Please contact the building division with any questions.
2. Please revise the site plan key notes as follows:
#2 — Revise to read: Existing Sidewalk See Civil
#5 — Add reference: See Civil
Page 4 of 5
Nordic Center — M20080319
#7 — Should this be 4" concrete slab instead of sidewalk? The reference is to the area in front of
the trash enclosure
3. Add note that a separate encroachment and/or street use permit is required for objects shown to
be located within the City right-of-way.
4. Please provide a section view from the driveway looking to the north at the planter area and to
the south at the trash enclosure area. What is the height of the walls and/or curbing shown.
A-2.1 Garage Floo
I . A 24' wide drive aisle is required for 2-way traffic. The plans currently show a drive aisle width
of 15'. Please revise accordingly.
2. Please confirm how many parking stalls are required for your development. Standard parking
stalls shall be a minimum of 8 1/2' wide x 16 1/2' in length. Reduced width or compact stalls are
to be a minimum of 8' wide x 16 1/2' in length. Some stalls shown do not meet the minimum
requirements. Also, per the Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC), you must first
show/demonstrate all required full size (8.5' x 16.5') parking stalls can be obtained within the
parking area. If this can be demonstrated the ECDC will allow for up to 50% of the stalls to be
reduced width (8' x 165).
A-5.1 Elevation
1. It appears as though the roof overhang at the front entry area, as shown in the East elevation,
extends beyond the property line. Is this accurate? Please provide copies of any easements or
agreements you may have with the adjacent property owner.
A-S-3 Detnik
1. Please revise detail 12 to show the parking stall width for a standard stall to be 8 '/2' wide,
measured from the face of the column to the center of the painted stripe.
L-1 Landscape Plan
1. Please add a note that references the civil plans for tree grate location and requirements.
2. Also, add a note that a separate encroachment and/or street use permit is required for objects
shown within the City right-of-way.
