Site Descriation
The subject property is located on the east side of 76th Avenue West. Soils on the property are
identified as part of the Alderwood soils series according to the Snohomish County soils survey. The
west half if the property is relatively level and then property slopes up at approximately 25% according
to the LIDAR information. These slopes together with the soils classify the site as containing potential
erosion hazards pursuant to Chapters 23.40 and 23.80 ECDC.
What does this mean?
The critical area regulations are only triggered when an alteration is proposed to a critical area or
its buffer. However, once an alteration in or near critical area is proposed, critical area studies and
City review and approval may be required.
What is an `Alteration'?
According to Section 23.40.005 of the Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC):
"Alteration" means any human -induced action which changes the existing conditions of a critical
area or its buffer. Alterations include, but are not limited to: grading, filling; dredging; draining;
channelizing; cutting, pruning, limbing or topping, clearing, relocating or removing vegetation;
applying herbicides or pesticides or any hazardous or toxic substance; discharging pollutants;
paving, construction, application of gravel; modifying for surface water management purposes;
or any other human activity that changes the existing landforms, vegetation, hydrology, wildlife
or wildlife habitat value of critical areas.
