DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DEPARTMENT - PLANNING DIVISION PLANNING DIVISION ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS, & DECISItJN Project: Griffin Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) at 1.931.1 Olympic View Drive (RS -112) File Number: ADU-2009-33 Date of Report: September 15, 2009 I have determined that the application is complete and have reviewed the Aecessory Dwelling Unit application pursuant to Chapters 20.21 and 20.95 of the Edanonds Community Development Cade a. Reviewed By. Gina Coccia, Associate Planner I. INTRODUCTION A. SUMMARY OF APPLICATION: The purpose of the Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) chapter is to regulate the establishment of ADUs within single-family dwellings while preserving the character of single-family neighborhoods. The request for additional living quarters within single -.family neighborhoods is to (1) make it possible for adult children to provide care and support to a parent or other relatives in need of assistance, or (2) provide increased security and companionship for homeowners, or (3) provide the opportunity for homeowners to gain the extra income necessary to meet the rising costs of home ownership, or (4) to provide for the care of disabled persons within their own homes. This site is located in a single-family neighborhood near Maplewood Hill Park and Edmonds. Elementary School. All of the properties in this neighborhood are also zoned Single -Family Residential (RS -12), with the exception of the strip along Puget Drive that is zoned Neighborhood Business (BN) and contains the gas station and some retail/service uses. The owner is proposing to create a one -bedroom Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) in his basement. No exterior changes are proposed. The floor plan indicates that the unit will have two bedrooms, a kitchen, bathroom, and living room with a deck used also for the entry. Because the owner is proposing to have separate kitchen, bath, and sleeping facilities within the existing residence, an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) permit is required. Approval of an ADU permit requires compliance with. Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC) Chapters 16.20 and 20,2:1. After land use approval is obtained for the ADU, the owner will need to receive Building Compliance permit approval. All Edmonds Community Development Code (ECD ) citations can he accessed Oldil7e Griffin ADU File ADU-2009-33 IL FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS A. GENERAL INFORMATION 1. Request: To create an ADU in the existing basement (Attachments 2 and 4). 2. Review Process: Accessory Dwelling Unit — Planning staff reviews the project and issues an administrative decision. 3. Owner/Applicant: James Griffin (Attachment 2). 4. Tax Parcel Number: 00434600008602. 5. Location: 19311 Olympic View Drive, Edmonds WA 98020 (Attachment 1). 6. Zoning: Single -Family Residential (RS -20). 7. Acreage / Square Footage: Approximately 0.28 Acres (Attachment 3). 8. Existing Use: One single-family home. 9. Proposed Use: One single-family home with one ADU in the basement. 10. Shoreline Management: The site is not subject to Shorelines of the State regulations. 11. Comprehensive Plan Designation: "Single Family — Resource." 12. Access 1 Street: Olympic View Drive is considered a "Collector Street" through this neighborhood and provides access to the property via an existing narrow driveway. The home is a "flag lot" tucked behind a lot fronting Olympic View Drive. B. TECHNICAL COMMITTEE: This application was reviewed by the City's Fire Department, Building Division, Engineering Division, Parks and Recreation Department, and the Public Works Department. The Building Division provided the comments which include the condition that a Building Compliance Permit is required for the proposed ADU. The Fire Department required a condition that interconnected smoke alarms must be provided throughout both dwellings. The Engineering Division requested additional information on the driveway and was satisfied with the applicant's response (Attachments 5 and 6). C. ZONING COMPLIANCE (ECDC 16.20): The property is located in the single-family residential (RS -12) zone. Pursuant to ECDC 16.20.010(D)(4), Accessory Dwelling Units are a permitted secondary use requiring a Conditional Use permit. The ADU application is processed as an administrative Conditional Use permit and reviewed against specific ADU criteria listed in ECDC 20.21.030. The proposed ADU is consistent with the zoning ordinance. D. APPLICATION AND STAFF REVIEW COMPLIANCE (ECDC 20.95): This ADU application is processed pursuant to ECDC 20.95.040 (Staff Decision — Notice Required). A complete application was received on June 2, 2009, which satisfies the requirements of ECDC 20.95. No public comments were received. E. CRITERIA FOR ADU COMPLIANCE (ECDC 20.21.030): The following specific criteria must be met in order for an ADU to be approved. The criteria as applied .to this permit are discussed below. Page 2 of 6 Griffin ADU File ADU-2009-33 1. Permit Required: Any person who occupies or permits another person to occupy an attached ADUas a place of residence shall first obtain a permit. The owner applied for an ADU permit on June 2, 2009 (Attachment 2). The application was considered complete upon submittal; however, additional information was requested on July 1. The applicant resubmitted materials on July 28 and the review of the project began again. The City's outstanding questions were satisfied and staff began the two week comment period on August 27. A building compliance permit is also required. A condition of approval will be that the owner receives the required Building Compliance Permit in order to meet this criterion. 2. Number of Units: A single.family dwelling may have no more than I ADUper lot. Only one ADU is proposed for this lot, therefore this criterion has been met. 3. Size: In no case shall an ADU be (1) larger than 40 percent of the livable floor area of the principal dwelling (2) nor more than 800 square feet, (3) nor have more than two bedrooms; provided, if the ADU is completely located on a single floor, the planning manager may allow increased size up to .50 percent of the floor area of the principal dwelling in order to efficiently use all floor area, so long as all other standards set forth in this chapter are met. The new ADU addition is proposed to be approximately 1156 square feet. The existing home is approximately 2947 square feet (which does not include the 544 square foot garage). So, the proposed ADU will be approximately 39 percent of the principle dwelling. It will be located completely on one floor and will not have more than two bedrooms. See Attachments 3 and 4. The application meets the size criteria. 4. Location and Appearance: The single - .family appearance and character of the residence shall be maintained when viewed from the surrounding neighborhood. The design of the ADU shall be incorporated into the design of'the principal dwelling unit and shall be designed to maintain the architectural design, style, appearance and character of the main budding as a single-family residence using matching materials, colors, window style, and roof design. The primary entrance to the ADUshall be located in such a manner as to be unobtrusive when viewed from the street. Whenever possible, new entrances should be placed at the side or rear of the building. Only one electric and one water meter shall be allowed for the entire budding, serving both the primary residence and the ADU. ADUs must be located within or attached to single- family dwelling units. The proposed ADU will maintain the single-family appearance and character of the residence. No new exterior work is proposed. Also, the property is tucked back between a lot fronting Olympic View Drive — the basement is not visible from the street, which is approximately 220 feet west. The ADU is proposed within the existing single-family dwelling unit. A condition of approval will address the requirement of having only one mail box, water meter, and electric meter. 5. Parking: One off-street parking space in addition to the parking spaces normally required for the principal dwelling shall be required to be provided for the ADU, but in no event less than three spaces per lot. The garage is shown to be 21'wide and 21' deep. There is also a large turn -around in the driveway. With these dimensions, the Engineering Division has found that the garage can accommodate at least two parking spaces, as well as one space in the large turn - Page 3 of ' 6 Griffin ADU File ADU-2009-33 around. With room shown for at least three parking spaces, the ADU application meets the parking criteria (Attachments 3 and 4). G. Occupancy: Either the primary dwelling or the ADUshall be owner -occupied. "Owner -occupied" shall mean a properly owner who makes his or her legal residence at the site, as evidenced by voter registration, vehicle registration, or similar means, and actually resides at the site more than six months out of any given year, and at no time receives rentfor the owner -occupied unit. The owner(s) shall not rent the designated owner occupied unit at any time during the pendency of the ADUpermit; Any such rental shall void the permit. The owner(s) shall not rent any portion of the owner - occupied unit for any period. In no event shall the total number of occupants exceed one family as defined in the Edmonds Community Development Code; provided, however, that if the ADU is occupied by a nurse or other caregiver assisting a disabled person who is an occupant of the principal residence, or the principal residence is occupied by a nurse%aregiver and the ADU is occupied by a disabled person under the nurse's care, the occupancy limit of one family may be in creased by one additional unrelated person to a total of one family related by genetics, adoption or marriage plass one unrelated person, or a total of six unrelated persons. In no event shall the total number of occupants exceed one family as defined in the Edmonds Community Development Code. The owner has given his oath by signing an affidavit (Attachment 8) stating that he will reside in the primary or accessory dwelling unit for more than six months of every year. An "ADU Covenant" (sample shown in Attachment 9) will also need to be recorded at the County Auditor's Office that affirms that the owner will need to reside in the home at least six months out of every year and will disclose the ADU to future owners and notify them of the conditions of approval. 7. Safety, Light, Ventilation, Floor Area and Similar Factors: ADUs shall comply with all applicable requirements of'the Uniform Housing Code and the Uniform Building Code adopted by ECDC Title 19 and shall comply in all respects with the provisions of the ECDC. No permit for an ADU shall be issued to a nonconforming structure unless that structure is brought into conformance with the then current provisions of this code. These criteria will be reviewed through the Building Compliance Permit. After the Building Compliance Permit is issued, and the addition is completed, an inspection by a City Building Inspector will be completed in order to ensure that the ADU meets the requirements of all life -safety codes and standards. Any conditions or corrections resulting from the inspection must be complied with. Any approval of an ADU should be conditioned to require compliance with the Building Division's inspection requirements. These items have been addressed as conditions of approval for the ADU permit. Therefore, this criterion has been met. The proposal, with conditions, is compliant with the ADU criteria. F. BUILDING CODE COMPLIANCE (ECDC TITLE 19): The ADU permit can be described in two phases. Phase one of the ADU permitting process is for land use review and approval — this is the review at hand. The second phase of the ADU permitting process is building compliance review and approval. Once the applicant obtains a building permit for the work proposed, the Building Division will review the proposal for compliance with the various building codes, including ECDC Title 19.

Additional information for my pending Conditional Use permit for an Accessory Dwelling Unit, File # CU -2009-33. Dear Ms. Coccia, Thank you for your prompt attention to my request for a Conditional Use permit for an Accessory Dwelling Unit. This letter is intended to provide the information, clarification and correction as requested in your letter dated July 1, 2009. I will initially address each of the four Planning Division comments (l a) through (I d) as follows: Ia. Reducing the ADU's size would be impractical because the entire unit is completely located on a single and separate floor with its own entrance and porch. In order to efficiently use the floor area, I request that the Planning Manager allow a variance to the (800 square feet) guideline as provided by city code, Section 20.21.030(D). The ADU comprises 39% of the total floor area (less than the 40-50% city requirement) and meets all other standards. lb. A signed and notarized "ADU Affidavit" was presented with my initial application on June 2, 2009. A copy of this document is attached. 1c. I agree to sign an "ADU Covenant" to be recorded at the Snohomish County Auditor's office. I d. There are no exterior changes, nor any changes to the site with regard to the ADU_ With regard to the Engineering Division request, I have attached a schedule of the driveway and parking area dimensions, showing the asphalt and impervious areas for parking. We have at least three off-street parking spaces for the home and the related ADU as proscribed in Section 20.21.030(E). I'm sorry for any confusion the original plans may have caused.
