MEMORANDUM
We visited the site on July 20, 2011 to meet with you and a representative from the City of Edmonds to
observe and discuss the cobblestone patio that had been partially constructed along the steep slope behind
your house, and arrive at resolutions that would satisfy you and the City's concerns regarding the
potential impacts of the recent construction activity on the adjacent slope. We met with you and Michael
Clugston, AICP with the City of Edmonds.
The cobblestone patio behind your house was partially completed when the City of Edmonds placed a
stop -work order on the project, citing lack of a permit and potential impacts of the patio on the steep
slope. We have since provided you with a mitigation plan to address the City's concerns. The plan was
summarized in our letter to you dated April 27, 2011 and included the removal and reconstruction of the
patio, the installation of a pin -pile wall along the top of the slope to retain the patio, along with drainage
improvements. You have expressed concern that the provided mitigation plan was economically
unfeasible and requested that we provide a less costly alternative that would still satisfy the City.
During our July 20`1' meeting with you and the City representative, it was agreed that the majority of the
patio would be left in place. The portion of the patio located within the setback from property line would
be removed and replaced with stepping stones. Only the portion of the previously recommended pin -pile
+ 'Mr. Allan Bodine

wall along the patio itself would be installed. We estimated that a total of 6 pin -piles would be needed.
The pin piles would be lagged with 12x4 pressure treated timber boards and the void between the boards
and patio would be filled with topsoil to act as a future planter. The exposed portion of the wall would be
a minimum of 18 inches high and the gap between the wall and the patio would be a maximum of 12
inches wide. The pin -piles would consist of 10 -foot, 2 -inch diameter galvanized water pipe sections. The
existing steps that lead down to the steep slope would be entirely removed. Michael from the City seems
satisfied with these recommendations. We should be retained to observe the installation of the pin -pile
wall and the final conditions of the patio after these recommendations are implemented.
We trust this memorandum should satisfy your needs at this time. Please contact us if you have any
questions or require additional services.

Re: Building Permit #2011-0152
Dear Mr. Clugston,
June 7, 2010
We are abandoning our plans for the retaining wall. The project is just too costly
for us to continue forward.
As for the patio and sidewalk, the original plan submitted had been approved, but
now it is disallowed. We are a bit confused by the City of Edmonds permit
processing procedures.
Enclosed are three copies of our revised patio plans to hopefully comply with the
current codes for the City of Edmonds.

We have provided part-time construction monitoring fdr the new 2 -foot tall pin pile retaining wall
with timber lagging along the top of slope at the your residence located at 505 Paradise Lane in
Edmonds, Washington. We previously. prepared a .geotechnical . evaluation letter for the retaining
wall titled "Geotechnical Engineering Letter --Bodine Property - 505 Paradise Land — Edmonds,
Washington," dated April 27, 2007. We also provided a memorandum dated August 24, 2011. We
have been requested by Jim with Bodine Construction to address a comment made by the City of
Edmonds regarding the potential surcharge from the riew wall onto the existing concrete rubble
block wall that is now located directly in frontof the new wall in the northeastern corner of the
property.
It is our opinion that Zany surcharge onto the existing concrete rubble wall from the approximate two
feet of fill behind the timber lagging is insignificant. The average setback is approximately 12 to 24
inches, but since the pin piles being only three feet apart, they are acting as a retaining structure and
are buffering the rubble wall from the added surcharge. The new pin pile wall is .acting -as a
subsurface pile wall that picks up most of the surcharge and transfers the loads to the competent
material before it can impact the rubble wall. Also, the two feet or so of backfill that was placed
