RE: PCC Natural Markets/City of Edmonds;
Recording of Agreement Creating Yard for Fire Exposure
Dear Ms. Graf:
NOV 20 2007
As you will recall, we are counsel to Puget Consumers Co -Op d/b/a PCC Natural
Markets ("PCC Natural Markets"). Last spring, we reached agreement with the City concerning
an Agreement Creating Yard for Fire Exposure (the "Agreement") regarding the former
Albertson's location in Edmonds. Pursuant to the terms of my letter of April 27, 2007, the City
is currently holding a fully executed original of the Agreement as well as a check to the
Snohomish County Recorder for $49.00 for the recording fees associated with the recording of
the Agreement. I have included herewith a copy of my April 27, 2007 letter, executed by Scott
Snyder, a copy of the Agreement, and a copy of a May 8, 2007 letter from Sandra S. Chase.
PCC Natural Markets is now ready to submit its application for a building permit for
construction work and improvements to the building located on the premises described in the
Agreement. Therefore, by this letter, we request that you immediately record the Agreement in
the official records of Snohomish County, Washington.
In addition, and pursuant to the terms of the April 27, 2007 letter, upon recording of the
Agreement, please provide. PCC Natural Markets a written approval of an Alternate Design
Request for the "openings" described in the Agreement, and subsequently, provide PCC Natural
Markets its building permit necessary to construct the improvements to the building pursuant to
said application.
