RE: PLAN REVIEW COMMENTS #1 FOR PLAN CHECK # 2017-1839
NEW SFR AT 19015 OLYMPIC VIEW DRIVE (LOT B OF PLN20140075)
Dear Mr. Strobl,
I have reviewed the above building permit application for the Planning Division. Before I can
continue with my review, the following information needs to be clarified in a written response
and through submittal of reports and updated plans with changes called out:
1. Geotech report: Please have Mr. Glandon update his January 11, 2017 report to
address this specific single family development proposal including the house,
driveway, retaining walls, etc.
2. Critical area notice to title: Per ECDC 23.40.270.13, sites with field -verified presence of
critical areas and/or critical area buffers for which a permit application is submitted
must as a condition of permit issuance, record a notice of the existence of the critical
area and/or critical area buffer against the property with the Snohomish County
Auditor's Office. Attached is a Notice of Presence of Critical Areas. Please sign and
notarize this document. Prior to issuance of the building permit, this form must be
recorded with the Snohomish County Auditor's Office. Options for recording include:
a. Provide the City processing fee of $100 plus the County recording fee of $77 ($74
for first page and $1 for each additional page), for a total of $177, and the City will
record the notice for you;
M
b. Take the covenant to the County and record it for the County's recording fee of
$74 for one page plus $1 for each additional page, and return a copy of the
recorded notice to the Edmonds Planning Division with the Auditor's recording
sticker on the copy.
3. Vegetation mane eMgp1 lan: This project is subject to the vegetation management
plan produced with the associated short plat in PLN20140075. Native vegetation in
the amount of 993 sq. ft. on the subject lot (Lot B) must be retained or created with
the single family project.
The clearing extent on the SWPPP (Sheet 2 of the civil plans) shows 'no disturbance'
areas along the east property line consistent with what was shown with the short plat,
At the same time, the Site Plan (Sheet A2) shows new deciduous trees along the east
property line.
Verify whether the 'no disturbance' areas will remain intact. If those areas remain
undisturbed during the development process, no additional native planting will be
required. However, if those areas are disturbed during development, native
replanting in the amount of 993 sq. ft. will be required. That area must then be
visually shown and a native plant schedule be called out on Sheet A2.
4. Sheet A3:
a. An "awning above entry" is shown on the Main Floor Plan. This feature doesn't
seem to appear on other sheets or it isn't labeled as such. If an awning is part of
the project, show and label it on the plans (including Sheet S2) noting that it can
only project into the required east setback a maximum of 30 inches similar to an
eave.
5. Sheet A2:
Retaining walls in setbacks. Retaining walls may only be 3' above original grade
where located within a required setback area. There are portions of wall within
the east, south and west setback areas. It appears that portions of several walls
within the south setback may be taller than 3'. Where located within a setback,
show the existing grade and top of wall elevations at 10-foot intervals and
ensure the walls are no greater than 3' where located in a required setback.
Codes, handouts, online permits, and the City's GIS are available here:

Please submit two copies of the updated site plan and two sets of any updated sheets of the
building plans. Please make all submittals to a Permit Coordinator, Monday through Friday,
8:00 am to 4:30 pm (8:30 am to 12:00 pm only on Wednesdays). If you have any questions,
please contact me at (425) 771-0220 or rnichaeLclu ston a edrnondsw goy+.
