TH
APPLICATIONLOCATED AT 23135 75PL. W,FILENO. PLN20180028
Dear Mr. Phan:
th
During staff’s continued review of your land use application for a two-lot short plat located at 23135 75
Pl. W, it was determined that additional information/clarification is necessary. Please respondto the
following items at your earliest convenience so that staff’s review of the proposal can continue:
1.The Edmonds Utilities Consortium (EUC) formincluded with your application only included
information for Snohomish County PUD. Please contact all applicable utilities and indicate
confirmation of utility service on this form(Form #E28).
2.Please have your surveyor makethe following corrections to the preliminary short plat plans:
a.The survey must be signed by yoursurveyor.
b.Refer to the list of information that is required to be shown on the preliminary plat map
within ECDC Section 20.75.060. Some of theitems on this list are missing from the
preliminary plans(i.e. ownership adjacent to site, topography lines, trees, etc.)Please revise
to indicate all items within ECDC 20.75.060.
c.Indicate the covered front patio on the existing residence.
d.Indicate the existing driveway and any other existingimprovements such as walkways,
patios, rockeries, etc.Since work is currently being done on the existing residence (permitted
under BLD20171851), any additional improvements proposed as part of that or any
associated permits should also be indicated.
e.The preliminary short plat plans reference King County throughout; however, the subject site
is located within the City of Edmondsand Snohomish County. Please have your surveyor
revise all references accordingly.
f.Revise the Dedication section as no dedication is required with this development. Typically
this section is titled “Declaration”. Typical language is as follows:
“Know all persons by these presents that we, the undersigned, having an interest in the real
property described by this declaration, do hereby declare the herein described division of
land, approved as short plat number PLN20180028by the City of Edmonds, as their free and
voluntary act and deed in accordance with their desires, subject to the following covenants
and conditions.”
A separate covenants and conditions section should then provide reference to any property
encumbrances, including reference to existing easements.
g.Indicate all existing and proposed easements. The title report includes two existing
easements that are not indicated on the preliminary plan. The recording numbers for these
easements are 230959 and 847299. Please have your surveyor indicate these easements on
the preliminary short plat plans.
h.The label for existing Parcel 2 is located outside of this parcel, which could cause confusion.
Please use an arrow or other means to clearly indicate which parcel is Parcel 2.
i.Correct the parcel number for existing Parcel 2.
j.The legal description for existing Parcel 2does not seem to match what has been depicted on
the plat map. The plat map does appear to match what is depicted on the Snohomish County
assessor’s website, however, it seems that may not be accurate as the distances and bearings
don’t match the legal. Please review and confirm what has been shown on the plat map is an
accurate representation of Parcel 2.
3.The title report indicates two easements (AFN 230959 and 847299) affecting portions of the
subject site. Please provide copies of these easements.As discussed above, the easements will
also need to be indicated on the preliminary short plat survey.
th
4.South Snohomish County Fire & Rescue noted that a fire hydrant will be required on 74
Ave. W per ECDC Section 19.25.055.Please refer to Engineering comments for additional
information.

The comments provided below are based upon review of the preliminary civil plans &
documents for the subject short plat. Additional information is requested from the applicant
at this time in order to continue review of the application and provide preliminary approval of
the short plat. Please ask the applicant to provide a written response to each of the comments
below and revise and resubmit plans accordingly.
1.In accordance with Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC) Chapter 18.90, 5-ft
th
sidewalks are required along 75Pl W as a condition of short plat approval. Please
resubmit plans showing the proposed sidewalk.
th
a.Placement of sidewalk shall allow for two(2) 11-ft travel lanes along 75Pl W.
b.Stormwater management will need to account for the new impervious surface area.
th
2.It appears as though the existing drivewayoff 75Pl W consistsof a crushed rock
surface. As a condition of short plat development the driveway will need to be asphalt or
concrete from the back of the sidewalk a minimum distance of 20-feet. The conversion of
gravel surfaces to concrete or asphalt will be consideredreplacedimpervious surface area
and shall be accounted for in the onsite management of stormwater.Please revise the
stormwater management calculations to include ths area.
3.Please ensure the stormwater management design for the proposed single family lot is
reflective of the desired house construction, driveways, patios, and walkways.
4.Show the location of existing and proposed dryutilities.
5.The side sewer relocation for Lot 1 and the new sewer stub for Lot 2 have been labeled to
have a 2% minimum slope,however, elevations confirming this can be achieved have not
been provided. Please provide invert elevations at the existing home and proposed home
confirming this is feasible.

6.There are two public sewer mains located in 74Ave W. Please revise plans to show
th
both. The sewer main on the east sideof 74AveWis owned by the City of Mountlake
Terrace and the main on the west side is owned by the City of Edmonds.
7.According to the submitted plans, a public sewer manhole is located on private property.
Please revise plans to show that an easement will be provided to the City onthe property
th
frontage of 74Ave W.
a.It appears as though the survey is only depictingthe center of thesewer manhole
lid. Please verify where the structure below the lid is located.
i.If the sewer manhole is rotated such that the structure protrudes into the
ROW, please provide a 5-ft easement along the property frontage.
ii.If the sewer manhole protrudes toward the private property, please provide
a 7-ft easementalong theproperty frontage.
b.Private utilities shall not be located within the new public sewer easement.
th
8.South Snohomish County Fire & Rescuenoted that a fire hydrant will be required on 74
Ave W per ECDC section 19.25.055. In order to install a fire hydrant, the
owner/developer willbe responsible for extending an 8”water main from the intersection
thth
of 75Pl SW and 74Ave W for a distance of approximately 300-ft. Please revise plans
to show the water main extension and proposed fire hydrant.The water main have 10-ft
separation from sanitary sewer mains.As an aside, I understand there was discussion in
the Development Review Committee meeting about a hydrant not being required if Lot 2
thth
were to take access from 75Pl W. A narrow strip of landthat extends to 75Pl W has
been included as part of Lot 2,but driveway access has notbeen provided from this street.
The intent of this strip of land as shown is unclear, however, we wanted to clarify that this
th
lot configuration does not alleviate the requirement to install a fire hydrant on 74Ave W.
9.Refer to attached plan review comments by City Stormwater Engineer, Zachary
Richardson. Please contact Zack directly at 425-771-0220 or by email at
zachary.richardson@edmondswa.govwith any specific questions you may have regarding
his comments.
