Critical Areas Determination

Project Name: Permit Number:
-]
Site Location: 15722 75th Pl. West Property Tax Acct #: 5131 028 006 0006
Project Description:
Non -Project Specific
Determination: Study Required:
During review and inspection of the subject site, it was found that the site appears to contain
and/or is adjacent to a Steep Slope Hazard Area pursuant to Chapter 20.1513 of the Edmonds
Community Development Code (ECDC). To determine if a Steep Slope Hazard Area does
exist, a topographic survey prepared by a Licensed Land Surveyor delineating Steep Slope
Hazard Areas must be completed. Any slope over 40% with more than 20 feet of rise will be
classified as a Steep Slope Hazard Area. A 50 foot buffer is required from both the top and
toe of the slope. A 15 foot building setback is required from the 50 foot buffer.
For development of any kind which is proposed within the critical area, a 50 foot buffer or 15
foot buffer setback, it must be shown that the development will not adversely impact the
Critical Area or its buffer, by doing one or possibly both of the following depending on the
outcome of the study:
For development proposals which will occur within the 50 foot buffer, but no closer
than 10 feet from the top or toe of the slope, the 50 foot buffer requirement may be
reduced to 10 feet if a study is completed by a licensed geologist or geotechnical
engineer which clearly demonstrates that the proposed buffer alteration will have no
adverse impact upon the site, the public or any private party. All Critical Area Studies
must be completed under a three party contract where the City hires the professional
required, and the applicant pays for the study (pursuant to ECDC Section 20.15B.150).
2. If development must occur within the critical area, buffer, and/or buffer setback, and is
not identified as an exception per ECDC Chapter 20.1513, a Reasonable Use Exception
and Variance must be obtained pursuant to ECDC 20.15B.180A and 20.15B.040C).
All proposed development of the subject lot must meet the requirements of Chapter 19.05 of
the Edmonds Community Development Code.
If the property owner wishes to apply for a specific development permit which they feel
would not impact the Critical Areas located on the site, they may submit their proposal to
the Planning Department for review. If the Planning Department finds that the proposed
development permit will not adversely impact a Critical Areas or its buffers, a conditional
waiver may be issued on a project by project basis.
