'N� CRITICAL AREAS CHECKLIST i
The Critical Areas Checklist contained on this form is
to be filled out by any person preparing a
Development Permit Application for the City of
Edmonds prior to his/her submittal of a development
permit to the City.
The purpose of the Checklist is to enable City staff to
determine whether any potential Critical Areas are, or
may be, present on the subject property. The
information needed to complete the Checklist should
be easily available from observations of the site or
data available at City Hall (Critical Areas inventories,
maps, or soil surveys).
An applicant, or his/her representative, must fill out
the checklist, sign and date it, and submit it to the
City. The City will review the checklist, make a
precursory site visit, and make a determination of the
subsequent steps necessary to complete a development
permit application.
Please submit a vicinity map along with the signed
copy of this form to assist City staff in finding and
locating the specific piece of property described on
this form. In addition, the applicant shall include
other pertinent information (e.g., site plan, topography
map, etc.) or studies in conjunction with this Checklist
to assist staff in completing their preliminary
assessment of the site
I have completed the attached Critical Areas Checklist and attest that the answers provided are factual, to the
•
best of my knowledge (fill out the appropriate column below).

Critical Areas Determination
Applicant: E. Kent Halvorson, Inc. Determination #: CA-97-126
Project Name: Permit Number:
Site Location: 15701 - 75th Pl. W. Property Tax Acct #: 5133-000-025-0208
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 number of critical areas, including a Steep Slope Hazard Area, Landslide
Hazard Area, and Erosion Hazard Area pursuant to Chapter 20.15B of the Edmonds Community
Development Code (ECDC).
Based on these findings, prior to submission of any development permit, you will be required to
satisfy the requirements of ECDC 20.15B by completing the following:
Steep Slope Hazard Area Delineation Requirements:
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 40o/o with 20 feet or more 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, 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:
1. 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.
Landslide Hazard Area
All proposed development of the subject lot must meet the requirements of Chapter 19.05
(Building Permits - Earth Subsidence and Landslide) of the Edmonds Community Development
Code. Note that building permits within the Meadowdale Landslide Hazard Area require more
detailed information than is normally required, which is detailed in the Meadowdale Earth
Subsidence Packet.
If the results of the Critical Areas Study determine that the lot may not be developed, the
applicant may apply for a Reasonable Use Exception and Variance pursuant to ECDC
20.15B.180A and 20.15B.040C).
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 rinds 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.
