During review of the subject submittal it was found that the following information, corrections, or
clarifications will need to be addressed. The comments provided pertain to both SFR's — Emerson &
Culver. Corrections shall be made to individual plan sets for 7211 and 7217 Mead Bch Road.
1. ok
2. 10/31/05 - Provide bottom of footing elevations for each home on the grading plan. The bottom of footing
elevation will be used to verify gradings quantities. Over 500 cy of grading, on either site, will require
SEPA.
■ 10/12/06 — Plans provide a footing drain elevation. Is this the same as the bottom of footing elevation?
Please clarify. Once this information is clarified I will be able to verify grading calcs.
■ 10/12/06 — Plans provide Quantities, which I assume to be grading quantities. There is also no
specification of measurement. Please clarify that these are proposed grading quantities. If the quantities
provided are in cubic yards, then the amount of proposed grading exceeds 500cy and SEPA will be
required. Please contact Meg Gruwell, Planner assigned to this project for additional information
regarding the SEPA process.
3. ok
4. 10/31/05 - The proposed contours indicate a driveway slope in excess of 14%. The Edmonds Community
Development Code does not allow for a driveway slope to exceed 14% without first obtaining approval by
the City Engineer. The maximum allowed driveway slope is 20%. Adjust the slope of the driveway to
reflect a 14% grade or submit your request in writing to the City Engineer with an explanation as to why the
required 14% slope cannot be achieved.
■ 10/12/06 — Response comments state a request will be submitted to the City Engineer. I do not find
record of this submittal to date.
■ 10/12/06 — Portions of the driveway, as proposed, exceed 20%. No portion of the driveway shall exceed
20% per ECDC 18.80.060. Please revise proposed grading contours.
5. 10/31/05 - Provide an on-site turnaround for lot #2 (7211 Mead Bch Rd).
■ 10/12/06 - reference is made to standard detail E2.6 and the response letter states a turnaround is
provided. However, the plans do not show a turnaround consistent with E2.6. Please revise.

not vertical curb. Also add reference to standard detail E2.13 for the sidewalk and revise the sidewalk
thickness to be 5 %" and 6" in the driveway.
