Site Location 901 BELL ST Tax Account Number 00434206603800 Property Owner J I M & TESS H EALY Applicant JANA FOY Critical Area(s) Present IR Wetlands (ECDC 23.50): Yes ❑ Frequently Flooded Areas (ECDC 23.70): NA 9 Geologically Hazardous Areas (ECDC 23.80) Erosion Hazard Areas: Yes Landslide Hazard Areas: Yes ❑ Seismic Hazard Areas: NA IR Fish & Wildlife Habitat Conservation Areas (ECDC 23.90) ❑ Mapped Fish & Wildlife Habitat: NA X Streams: Yes Site Description The subject property is located north of Bell St. and east of 9th Ave. N. and is currently developed with a single-family home. The site is relatively level along the southern property boundary and begins to slope steeply along the north (rear) side of the existing residence. According to the Soil Survey of Snohomish County, soils on the subject site consist of "Alderwood Everett Gravelly sandy loams 25-70% slopes". According to the City LiDAR data, portions of the site contain slopes greater than 40% and thus are classified as a potential landslide hazard, and portions of the site with slopes greater than 15% are considered a potential erosion hazard. Any land disturbing activity within 50 feet of the steep slopes will require a geotechnical report per requirements of ECDC 23.80, with specific reference to ECDC 23.80.060 and ECDC 23.80.070. Additionally, an Erosion and Sediment control plan compliant with chapter 18.30 ECDC may be required for development on a site containing an erosion hazard area which would be reviewed as part of a building permit. The site also contains critical areas, including a stream and potential wetland. The stream is located along the northeastern portion of the property, buffers from the stream and potential associated wetland could impact the subject site. A qualified professional will need to assess the area to determine the classifications of any potential stream and/or wetland on and adjacent to the site. 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.
