Subject: REQUEST FOR CLARIFICATION TO YOUR RESUBMITTAL FOR YOUR ACCESSORY
DWELLING UNIT PERMIT APPLICATION, FILE NO. ADU-2007-55
Dear Mr. Wright:
Staff has reviewed your resubmittal dated September 24, 2007 for your land use application for an Accessory
Dwelling Unit (ADU) located at 17909 — 75' Place West and has come across a few items requiring clarification.
Please respond to the following items so that staff s review of your application can continue:
I. Please respond to the attached comments dated October 10, 2007 from the Engineering Division
regarding the parking requirement for the proposed ADU. The third parking space for the ADU must be
at least 18 feet long from the face of the garage to the property line. Note that the edge of the pavement is
not necessarily at the same location as the property line. Please provide the distance from the face of the
garage to the property line at the shortest point.
2. In your resubmittal, you stated that the proposed size of the ADU is 688 square feet and the livable area
of the main residence is 1,453 square feet. It appears that the unfinished area over the garage was
included in the 1,453 square feet for the main residence; however, the calculations must only include
livable area. Therefore, please revise the floor areas for your application with the area of the proposed
ADU and the area of the remaining livable space within the residence, which must exclude the garage,
workshop, and unfinished area over the garage, but can include the area of the utility room.
Please note that your application will be placed on hold until a response is received regarding all of the above
items. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me at (425) 771-0220, extension 1224.
Sincerely,

Engineering has reviewed the resubmittal for the subject application and provides the
following comments.
The additional parking space required with the ADU shall be located entirely on private
property. For this reason 1 need to have an accurate site plan showing there is enough room
within the section of driveway located on private property to locate the parking stall.
The dimension provided on the site plan for length of driveway appears to be from face of
garage to edge of pavement. Please ask the applicant to confirm and show on the site plan the
distance from face of garage to the property line, which will not necessarily be at the edge of
pavement.
Again, the driveway will need to meet the minimum requirement of 18 feet or the applicant
will need to propose an alternate parking space location per City standards.
Thank you.
City of Edmonds
