Project Address: 620 Sunset Ave
During review of the above noted application, it was found that the following information,
corrections, or clarifications are needed. Please redline plans or submit three (3) sets of revised
plans/documents with a written response to each of the items below to a permit coordinator.
City of Edmonds handouts,standard detailsand development codecan be referenced on the City
website.
GENERAL:
1.Please provide a cover sheet that shows the existing and to be removed structures along with
erosion control measures & easement areasand another plan sheet specific to utilities.
Easement boundaries should also be shown on the utility plan sheet, but reference to specific
recording docs can remain on the cover sheet.
2.With the previous building permit application, aSanitary Sewer Easement Release and
Easement Grant Agreement was recorded againstthe property –AFN 201205110112.The
grant of the new easement included language about the building being located upon the
easement. Another Sanitary Sewer Easement Release and Easement Grant Agreement will need
to be recorded against the property establishing new easement language specific to the proposed
development and excluding language that indicates construction upon the easement. The new
easement will need to maintain the easement for access that was recorded under this agreement.
Please submit a draft easement for City review. As previously discussed, the easement will
need to be recorded prior to final occupancy approval.
3.Please lighten the hatching of the driveway area as shown on all plan sheets to make it is easier
to see the utility systems and pertinent information.
4.Revise approval block to state “City Engineering Division” instead of “City Engineer”.
5.Submit 3 copies of a revised drainage report that specifically addresses the proposed
development in the narrative.
6.Storm tightline systems and retaining wall are shown to be crossing the sewer easement. This
infrastructure is not permitted to bewithin the easement unless a separate encroachment permit
is approved allowing such. Please refer to City handout E26 and submit an application and
associated documents accordingly.
C1 –SITE DEVELOPMENT, DRAINAGE AND UTILITY PLAN

5.Reference and incorporate into plans City standard detail E6.1 for sewer manhole channeling.
6.Include reference to Kosnik Engineering for potential loading on sanitary sewer system.
7.Clearly show existing sanitary sewer easement boundaries and note the requirement to record a
new Sanitary Sewer Easement Release and Easement Grant Agreement prior to final occupancy
approval.
