Dear Ms. Neal:
I have reviewed your resubmittal dated June 9, 2015for the above building permit applicationfor the
Planning Division,and it was found that the following information, corrections, or clarifications will need
to be addressedbefore review can continue:
Lot Coverage:
1.It was noted that your lot coverage calculations changed between the site plan
submitted on 2/26/15 and the site plan submitted most recently on 6/9/15. Since no changes were
made to the building plans, it is unclear why the lot coverage calculations changed. Additionally, it
was noted that the new lot coverage stated for the covered porch is 150 square feet, while the
impervious surface calculations state that the covered porch is only 133 square feet.Although upto
30”of eavesmay be excluded from the lot coverage calculations, all eaves and other impervious
surfaces must be included in the impervious surface calculations.Thus, the area of the covered
porch should be larger in the impervious surface calculations than in the lot coverage calculations.
Lot coverage is defined as the total ground coverage of all buildings or structures on a site
measured from the outside of external walls or supporting membersexcluding a maximum of 30”
of eaves.Thus, the footprint of the entire residence including the cantileveron the eastern side of
the residence must be included in the lot coverage calculations. For the lotcoverage calculations,
the footprint of the covered porch out to the supporting posts mustbe included, while the eaves
beyond the support posts may be excluded as long as they do not exceed 30”.
Please correct the site plan and building plans as necessary suchthat both the lot coverage
calculationsand the impervioussurface calculations correctly reflect the proposal.
Please submit a cover letter stating how the above comment hasbeen addressed as well as three copies of
your revised site plan (includingone reduced copy) andtwo copies of any revised building plan sheets to
a Development Services Permit Coordinator. Our office hours are Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and
Fridays between 8:00am and 4:30pm. The Permit Counter is closed on Wednesdays.
If you have any questions, feel freeto contact me at (425) 771-0220or Jen.Machuga@edmondswa.gov.
Sincerely,
