Cover Letter for Design Review -
8000, 8010 212th Street SW- 21216 801h Ave W
Project Description:
The proposal is for the removal of all existing structures on three adjoining parcels of
land and construct 14 new detached single family structures with attached garages.
All of the existing hardscape and most of the existing landscape shall be removed and
replaced.
The proposal takes into consideration the zoning ordinance. The structures meet the
requirements of the zoning ordinance in the bulk and use requirements.
There are no departures/ variances requested.
Design Review:
Criteria
A. Building Design:
The project is composed of 14 detached single family structures. This provides a
natural break to the massing. There are no long unbroken buildings.
The buildings are the same/ similar in style, proposing traditional forms that vary in
form and/or orientation to provide additional break up and yet being part of an
integrated development.
Roof lines are varied, entries are detailed, use of multiple materials is planned.
B. Site Treatment:
The site requires a minimum of grading to ultimately provide good drainage.
Most of the existing vegetation needs removal/ replacement as the new structures,
driveways, removal of existing improvements, will impact most of the site.
A preliminary landscape plan is prepared with landscaping that will enhance the
site improvements and help buffer the development from adjacent properties and
arterial streets.
Solid waste and recyclables are provided for each structure and are proposed to
be screened with walls, gates that are similar or the same as the buildings.
