Subject Property: 19001 Dellwood Drive, Edmonds, WA. 98020
Dear Mr. Conrad,
The City received a complaint regarding junk vehicles and an accessory building that appears to be in the setback,
possibly over height (15) and built over 120 square feet without a building permit.
Inspection revealed that junk vehicles are on the property and that the deteriorating accessory building in the driveway
is over 120 square feet. The City does not have any records that a permit was acquired for this structure. If you have
records showing that a permit was obtained for the driveway structure, please submit that record at your earliest
convenience.
Junk vehicles are defined in ECDC 20.110.20.C as a vehicle meeting any two of the following requirements: (bold
and underline added)
1. Is three years or older;
2. Is extensively damaged, such damage including but not limited to any of the following: a broken or missing
window or windshield or missing wheels, tires, motor, drive train, brakes or transmission;
3. Is apparently inoperable;
4. Is without valid current registration plates;
5. Has a fair market value equal to the value of the scrap in it.
Accessory structures over 120 square require a building permit. Accessory structures of any size are required to meet
height and setbacks requirements.
Corrective actions required:
Please contact me at your earliest convenience by May 14, 2007 to review the following compliance
