CRITICAL AREAS CHECKLIST
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).
tp
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
Q'�. � co�
Applicant: Robert Throm and Bill Lund Determination #: CA909-31—_
Project Name: Permit Number:
Site Location: 7533 Olympic View Drive Property Tax Acct M 4346 000105 0009
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 20.15B 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 of 40% or more with at least 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, 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
25 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, except those done by a
licensed geotechnical engineer, 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 20.15B, a Reasonable Use Exception
and Variance must be obtained pursuant to ECDC 20.15B.170A and 20.15B.040C.
The site is also in an area designated on the Critical Areas inventory as Slopes with Erosion
Potential. All proposed development must have an erosion control plan approved by the City of
Edmonds Engineering Department.
1
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.
