Case: # ZE-06-188, (2006-0063)
Subject Property: 1219 Coronado Pl. S., Edmonds, WA. 98020
Dear Mr. Sherman,
The City received a complaint regarding a junk vehicle at the subject property. You may not have been
aware of City regulations regarding junk vehicles.
The subject property was inspected on August 29, 2006 and there was a parted inoperable vehicle. The
Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC) addresses junk vehicles as follows:
“Junk vehicles” are defined in ECDC 20.110.20.C as a vehicle meeting any two of the following
requirements: (bold added)
1. Is three years or older;
2. Is extensively damaged, such damage including but not limited to any of the following: a broken
or missing window or windshield or missing wheels, tires, motor, drive train, brakes or transmission;
3. Is apparently inoperable;
4. Is without valid current registration plates;
5. Has a fair market value equal to the value of the scrap in it.
Corrective action required:
Please enclose in a legal structure or remove the junk vehicle or demonstrate that the vehicle is
currently licensed and operable by September 18, 2006. Please note that a tarp is not considered
enclosed.
At your convenience and request, I can meet you at the subject property to review the violations. If you
have any questions or need any information please call me at 425-771-0220 x1716. Thank you in advance
for your cooperation and assistance.
Sincerely,
Mike Thies
Code Enforcement Inspector
