Hi Mike
It was nice speaking with you yesterday regarding the above project. As you mention in your plan review
comments dated August 7, 2018 Fruitdale Creek is located to the southwest of the subject site. At its nearest
point this stream appears to be approximately 100 feet from the property.
Based on previous work and the available online resources, it appears that this stream meets the criteria for a
Type Np stream in the City of Edmonds. This stream is depicted on the Snohomish County PDS Map Portal
maps as a non -fish habitat seasonal stream. The Salmonscape maps produced by WDFW show this stream
but do not depict any fish use. The City of Edrnonds Shoreline Master Program U2gate Shoreline Invento
Characterisation (November 2007) discusses Fruitdale Creek on Page 62 with the conclusion that there is a
lack of spawning and rearing habitat in the creek and that current fish use of the creek is unlikely. Finally, in
2004 while working at Wetland Resources I conducted a wetland and stream assessment on the nearby
property located at 1551 10th Place N and determined that Fruitdale Creek was a Category 3 (non -fish bearing)
stream. Given that the current house on this property was built in 2006, it appears that the determination of no
fish was reviewed and approved by the City at that time.
If fish were determined to be present in the adjacent reach of Fruitdale Creek this stream would then meet the
criteria for a Type F non-anadromous fish bearing stream and would receive a 75-foot buffer. Even with a 75-
foot buffer width, the buffer and associated 15-foot building setback would not extend to the subject site.
I have attached a map showing the location of Fruitdale Creek in relation to the subject site as well as the
Critical Areas Determination report from 2004 for the property located at 1551 10th Place N. Hopefully this
provides sufficient information to move forward with the project. If you have questions or need anything further,
please let me know. I appreciate your help with this.

Dear Mr. Helleren:

The stream flows from east to west through a series of man-made ponds and often landscaped
stream channel.. This series of ponds do not.cont in wetlands, but comprise the ordinary high
water mark of the Categbry.3 stream. Category, 3 streams in the City of Edmonds typically
receive 10-foot protective buffers. As portions of the. Category .3 stream, these ponds shall
receive 10-foot buffers.
No wetlands are located on the subject property. Parcel B is comprised of maintained lawn
represented by colonial bentgrass (A rostis tenu'is, Fac), common dandelion (Toroxacum
o , icinole,.FacU), and unidentified mosses. Soils display Munsell colors ranging from dark brown
to dark yellowish brown (10 YR 3/3 to 10 YR 4/4) with textures of sandy loam, from 0 to 18
inches below the surface. Soils were dry to moist during our February site visit. .
Th soWetl nod Re onnaissance Re ort is supplied to Pacific Emeral
dld Homes Inc. as a means of
determining on -site wetland and stream. conditions. This report is based largely on readily
observable conditions and, to a lesser extent, on readily ascertainable conditions: No wetland
delineation was conducted. No attempt has been made to determine hidden or concealed
