Comments 2 — March 5, 2020
GENERAL
1) March 5, 2020 — response comment letter states a ROW permit application will be
submitted for approval as required.
12/10/2019 comment - A right-of-way permit is required to perform work within the City right-
of-way (ROW). A ROW Permit Application shall be completed by the contractor and
submitted to the City prior to issuance of the building permit.
2) March 5, 2020 — response comment letter states the application was included with the most
recent submittal, however, I was not able to locate the application within the permit set.
My apologies if it has been misplaced. I kindly request that this be submitted again.

3) ok
4) ok
5) ok
6) March 5, 2020 — Response comment letter states the covenant will be finalized once the
design is accepted by the City.
12/10/2019 comment - A Stormwater Covenant is required to be recorded against the property
based on the proposed stormwater facilities for the project. Please complete the enclosed
covenant, including notarization and any required exhibits and submit to the city. Ensure the
stormwater covenant meets Snohomish County Record Drawing requirements. The document
must be complete, but will not be recorded prior to permit issuance. Prior to construction final,
location of facilities are to be verified (by field inspection and asbuilt) and then the covenant
will be recorded.
7) March 5, 2020 — The plans (Sheet C3) still only shows one water main and one sanitary
sewer main. Please revise as requested. The following is provided from the City's GIS

12/10/2019 comment - Existing water and sewer lines shall be shown from the City main to the
property line and from the property line to the existing home. The following shall be addressed
through notes on the plans, specific to the demolition aspect of the project:
a. March 5, 2020 — The sanitary sewer line has not been shown on this plan sheet.
Project Note #9 is appropriate, but the utility line shown in plan view is the gas line,
not the sewer.
12/10/2019 - The sanitary side sewer shall be cut and capped at the property line or at
minimum at least 20-ft from the existing and/or proposed foundation. If sewer is not
capped at the property line, the location of the stub shall be clearly marked with a 2x4
stake during construction.
b. ok

SHEET C3 — CIVIL IMPROVEMENT PLAN
1) ok
2) March 5, 2020 — see notes below:
12/10/2019 comment - As indicated by the Fire Department and noted on the plans, a fire
sprinkler system is required for this property. Typically if there is an existing water service line
from the watermain to the meter, the water service line/meter will not be the appropriate size
and a new tap will be required. The applicant will be required to pay for the new tap on the
main and the new meter. Revise plans as follows:
a. ok
b. ok
c. March 5, 2020 — Water service line shall be shown to the house.
12/10/2019 comment - Please show a 1-1/2" water service line to be installed from
the back of the meter to the house.
d. March 5, 2020 — Please label pipe material.
12/10/2019 - Please label the pipe material and note tracer wire to be installed on the
water service line (unless copper pipe is used)
e. ok
f. ok
g. March 5, 2020 — for clarification, please add note or revise Project Note #4 to
state the City will perform the tap on the City water main and extend service to
the property and set the meter.
3) March 5, 2020 — Please show dry utility connections in the right-of-way.
12/10/2019 comment - All utilities are to be shown from the city main line/lateral to the
structure. This includes dry utilities, such as power, phone & gas as well as complete water and
sewer systems.
4) ok
5) March 5, 2020 — Please revise the second half of Project Note #5 to clarify the Edmonds
Public Works Sewer Division shall be contacted to schedule an inspection of the sanitary
sewer lateral.
12/10/2019 comment - With a proposal to reuse the existing sewer lateral, the City's Public
Works Department will need to TV the lateral to determine if it is acceptable to re -use. Add
notes to the plans to contact Edmonds Public Works Sewer Division, 425-771-0235, to schedule
inspection. Please note, a good time to address this is when the sewer is capped for demolition.
If it is determined that the sewer lateral is not acceptable to reuse, the contractor shall be
Page 3 of 4
responsible for replacing (or lining if the line condition allows for) from the City sewer main to
the property line.
6) March 5, 2020 — see notes below:
12/10/2019 comment - With regards to the sanitary side sewer, the entire sewer run shall be
shown from the main line to the house.
a. ok
b. ok
c. March 5, 2020 — Please show cleanout on the right-of-way side of the property
line.
12/10/2019 - A 6" cleanout with 12" cast iron lamphole cover, per City standards,
will be required on the right-of-way side of the property line.
d. March 5, 2020 — Response letter states the depth of the sanitary sewer at the
property line was assumed to be 4-ft. Please add a note to the plans that clearly
indicates this assumption and requires field verification prior to installation of
the sanitary sewer system.
12/10/2019 - Provide invert elevations at the cleanout at the property line and at the
house so that a minimum 2% slope and minimum 2' pipe coverage can be verified.
7) ok
8) ok
9) ok
10) March 5, 2020 — Plan revisions have been made to show adjustments to a portion of the
driveway on private property, however, notes have not been added to the this effect.
Clarifying notes would be useful. Please revised accordingly.
12/10/2019 comment - The project indicates removal and replacement of the driveway
approach, which is required to comply with ADA requirements. The plans also indicate the
existing driveway will be retained, however; with the driveway approach revision there could be
a conflict in elevations. The proposed new driveway approach will drop the elevation of the
east side of the sidewalk in comparison to the existing. For this reason, the existing driveway
will need to be re -graded. Revise plans accordingly.
11) March 5, 2020 — Please revise Project Note #3 to include notes under the first bullet point
of (d) below. In addition, please add notes indicating additional restoration requirements
should the sanitary sewer lateral need to be replaced.
12/10/2019 comment - Revise plans to show restoration of sidewalk and roadway as needed.
Things to consider:
a. New water service line — street and sidewalk restoration
b. Potential replacement of sanitary sewer lateral
c. Other dry utilities being brought to the site?
d. Restoration of utility patches as follows:
• Utility patches shall be combined and full width or half width overlay will be
required depending on the extent of disturbance. Where utility patches fall
entirely within one travel lane, the overlay shall extend to the centerline of
roadway. Where utility patches extend into both travel lanes then a full width
overlay is required.
• Please add a note to the plans that all final restoration within the right-of-way
shall be completed by the contractor not the City of Edmonds.
e. Repair of existing pavement striping.
12) March 5, 2020 — Footing drains
