File number PLN20130036
Dear Mr. Michel,
Thank you for submittal additional information in response to the City's July 16, 2013 Letter of
Completeness and Request for additional information. Further clarification is necessary for the
City to continue review, the proposed short plat. This letter retains the same number format of
the July 161h letter of completeness and additional requests are included in red. Please respond to
the follow so we may continue our review:
1. Partially addressed. Please respond to the comments from Jennifer Lambert, Engineering
Technician, provided in the attached memorandum. If you have any questions on Ms.
Lambert's comments, you may contact her at (425) 771-0220 or
Jennifer. Lambertgedmondswa. gov.
a. Unaddressed Comment from Engineering's June 13, memorandum
Please provide a plan that shows the traffic flow of the parking lot of 9508 Edmonds Way
so that the proposed modification to the entrance can be reviewed. Please make sure to
include all curbs, parking stalls, etc. Please note that if any portion of vehicles for 22810
Edmonds Way will be utilizing areas outside of the easement to access their lot, the
easement will need to be revised.
Additionally, it appears the easement recorded under AFN 7801230217 needs to be
revised for access to proposed short plat. Please provide documentation from the
property owner of 9508 (9504) Edmonds Way indicating a willingness to modify said
easement.
b. Partially addressed comment from Engineering's June 13, memorandum
Please clearly label the dimensions of the planter strip (4') and sidewalk (7'). Also please
revise the plans to say a pedestrian easement not dedication.
If a pedestrian easement is required to obtain the City requirements for frontage
improvements, please show the pedestrian easement of the preliminary plat map.
2. Partially addressed. Please refer to ECDC 20.75.060 for all required information to be
shown on the preliminary plans and have your surveyor revise the plans as necessary to meet
these requirements. As part of your surveyor's revisions to the plans, please ensure the
following items are addressed:
a. Addressed.
b. If the proposed utilities are to cross Lot 1 as shown on the previous preliminary plat map,
please include the necessary easement for the utilities to cross Lot 1.
While the utility easement was shown on the Road & Drainage Plan and the TESC and
Grading Plans, the utility easement was not included on the preliminary plat map. Please
ensure all easements are identified on the preliminary plat map, including the pedestrian
easement identified above.
3. Addressed.
4. Parking. Following the issuance of the letter of completeness and request for additional
information staff conducted a site visit and noticed a number of parking spaces at 9504
Edmonds Way would be eliminated for access to the proposed subdivision. In an email dated
July 22, 2013 staff notified you of this issue and provided the following comment:
In order to verify the required parking, we need to know the mix of unit types (studio, 1-
bedroom, 2-bedrooms, etc.) for the apartment complex. If eliminating the eight spaces drops
the apartments under the required number of parking spaces, the parking lot may need to be
reconfigured to remain compliant with the parking standards as detailed in ECDC 17.50.020.
In an August 26, 2013 email you noted the apartment complex consisted of 48 one bedroom
apartments, which pursuant to ECDC 17.50.020 would require a total of 7� parking stalls for
the complex.
An aerial photo identifying 74 parking stalls at 9504 Edmonds Way was provided and
indicating the three stalls would need to be removed to provide access to the proposed
subdivision. This aerial photo also identified a potential location for 5 parking spaces in the
southeast corner of the property. 'In order to ensure that this location would provide
sufficient room for traffic flow, please provide dimension of the travel lane to verify
adequate fire access and parking stall dimensions at the location of the proposed parking
stalls. Additionally, provide correspondence from the property owner of 9504 (9508)
Edmonds Way indicating willingness to revise the parking lot and provide parking at this
location.
Please note that the application will be placed on hold until a response is received regarding the
above items. According to ECDC 20.02.003.D, the above requested information must be
submitted within 90 days (or by March 8, 2013) or the application will expire.
If you have any questions, please contact me at 425-771-0220 or via email at
