When: Wednesday, September 6, 2006, beginning at 7:00 P.M.
Subject: Edmonds Elementary Playground & Field Project: Continuance on the
application (File Number ADB-2006-75) by the Edmonds School District
for the Edmonds Elementary Playground and Field Project located at
1215 Olympic Avenue in the Single Family Residential (RS-12) zone.
The Edmonds School District has made an application to the City of Edmonds for improvements
to the Edmonds Elementary playground and field. This is a land use application that is reviewed
by the City of Edmonds Planning Division who makes a recommendation to the Architectural
Design Board (ADB). The Architectural Design Board reviews the design of the project and
makes the final decision. This is just a courtesy letter to inform you of the proposal.
The Planning Division has recommended approval of the proposed playground and field
th
improvements. On July 12, the Architectural Design Board held a meeting to discuss the
proposed improvements but they have continued the meeting in order to obtain some clarification
on the project and to request that the applicant propose an alternate location for the outdoor
student seating area. The applicant has provided the City with a revised site plan, clarification on
the proposed improvements, and has shown an alternate location for the outdoor student seating
area (see attached for the location of the improvements).

The September 6 meeting is a continuation of the July 12 meeting and will address the
proposed improvements to the Edmonds Elementary playground and field. Two of the items, the
walking path and the outdoor student seating area (‘amphitheater’) are not part of the current
approval. At this time, the applicant is asking the ADB to approve the following:
Installation of 8 park benches and 3 picnic tables
2 sets of 3 tiered bleachers at the existing baseball field
2 tetherball poles and 1 3-tier hoop
Asphalt for the basketball court area and installation of 4 hoops
Asphalt for sidewalk/safety improvements on-site
