STF20120002 SEPA DNS.pdfOV EDA, O CJ` N m ® o o 1>S1 1g90 121 5TH AVENUE NORTH, EDMONDS, WA 98020 (425) 771-0220 RCW 197-11-970 Determination of Nonsignificance (DNS) Description of proposal: The City of Edmonds is planning Low Impact Development (LID) stormwater improvements on a 1.1 acre section of Main Street between 5th and 6th Avenues. The existing street will be reconstructed with 11 -foot traffic lanes and 7 -foot parking lanes. Sidewalks will be widened to 12 feet from the current 10 -foot width. Sidewalk bulb -outs are proposed at the intersection of 6th Avenue and Main Street and at a new mid -block pedestrian crossing. The existing bulb -out at 5th Avenue will be retained. The mid -block crossing will be raised approximately 6 inches for traffic calming. Crosswalks will be paved with stamped and colored concrete to match existing crosswalks at 5th Avenue and Main Street. The roadway surface will be paved with hot -mix asphalt (HMA). It is anticipated that approximate existing grade will be maintained and HMA paving will consist of two-inch overlay. A gravel -backfilled trench located in the center of the roadway will capture stormwater, achieving maximum separation distance from the buildings abutting the right of way on each side of the street. It is likely that existing asphalt will be ground down to accommodate the overlay and maintain existing grades. Streetscape improvements include new lighting, trees, flower poles and planters. One minor property acquisition of approximately 80 square feet will be required.
