RE:Planning Division comments for file »Payne Sign Permit
Greetings,
th
Street SW
freestanding sign8010 212
Thank youfor submitting a building permit application for a at
RM-2.4
in thezone. I have reviewed the above building permit application for the Planning Division and
it was found that the following information, corrections,or clarifications will need to be addressed before
the Planning Division review can continue.
1.Sign Type:
Pole signs (that is, signs supported by visible polesper ECDC 20.60.020.L) are not
permitted in the RM-2.4 zone. How do you plan on disguising the poles? Will the sign be buried up
to the sign face? Will the poles be wrapped around the base with another material(for example,
brick)? Please explainand revise your plans as necessary.
2.Landscaping:
ECDC 20.60.045.G requires landscaping to be installed around the base of the sign
(the amount is twice the sign area, so 11.33x2=22.66 square feetrequired). Please show this
landscaping area on the site plan and indicate the proposed species that you’d like to use.
:
Please submit a written response to the above, along with any revised plansto your Permit Coordinator
. All code citations can be found at:www.EdmondsWA.gov.If you have any questions,
Marie Harrison
please do not hesitate to contact me. I look forward to working with you on this project.
