Critical areas are ecologically sensitive or hazardous areas that are protected in order to maintain their functions and values. Site Location 1152 VIEWLAND WAY Tax Account Number 00548900001906 Property Owner CHRISTOPHER R & WARDE HEMPLE Applicant JON SVEINSSON Critical Area(s) Present ❑ Wetlands (ECDC 23.50): NA ❑ Frequently Flooded Areas (ECDC 23.70): NA X Geologically Hazardous Areas (ECDC 23.80) X Erosion Hazard Areas: Yes X Landslide Hazard Areas: Yes ❑ Seismic Hazard Areas: NA ❑ Fish & Wildlife Habitat Conservation Areas (ECDC 23.90) ❑ Mapped Fish & Wildlife Habitat: NA ❑ Streams: NA Site Description The subject site slopes down east -west and is underlain by Alderwood Gravelly sandy loam soils (15-25% slopes). The house is located in a more level, graded area in the center of the site. There is a smaller slope west of the house which qualifies as an erosion hazard area (grade of about 25%). East of the house and driveway is a taller, steeper slope. The cut slope is supported by what looks like an old cinderblock wall. Because the eastern slope has a grade of greater than 40%, it is considered to be a potential landslide hazard area. 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. c, MICHAEL CLUGSTON May 10, 2021 Name, Title Cited sections of the Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC) can be found at h ttp://www. codepublishing. com/WA/Edmonds Environmentally Critical Areas General Provisions (ECDC 23.40) Wetlands (ECDC 23.50) Frequently Flooded Areas (ECDC 23.70) Geologically Hazardous Areas (ECDC 23.80) Fish and Wildlife Habitat Conservation Areas (ECDC 23.90) Building permits — Earth Subsidence and Landslide Hazard Areas (ECDC 19.10) Date City of Edmonds GIS map tool with approximate location of critical areas: http://Mops.edmondswo.gov Page 12 , Iny City of Edmonds Critical Area Map , + 32 ♦ l r Lynwood EOmonds • 236 T MyountUke I1T— al j ,r Legend Contour Lines • .Sy z 10; 50 N N o W p — 100 ArcSDE.GIS.STREET CENTERLINE; - _ — <all other values> 1 1 t i _ � .�A 52 2 �(k � 9;71;7;8 58 26 2 ti t Co 00 00 �10 O 1: 379 O Notes 1152 Viewland Way 0 31.57 63.1 Feet S64 47.0 This map is a user generated static output from an Internet mapping site and is for reference only.
