Critical areas are ecologically sensitive or hazardous areas that are protected in order to maintain their functions and values. Site Location 22214 98TH AVE W Tax Account Number 00450700300002 Property Owner ROSALEEN M MUDRA Applicant ROSALEEN MUDRA Critical Area(s) Present ❑ Wetlands (ECDC 23.50): NA ❑ Frequently Flooded Areas (ECDC 23.70): NA 2 Geologically Hazardous Areas (ECDC 23.80) 2 Erosion Hazard Areas: Yes 2 Landslide Hazard Areas: Yes ❑ Seismic Hazard Areas: No ❑ Fish & Wildlife Habitat Conservation Areas (ECDC 23.90) ❑ Mapped Fish & Wildlife Habitat: NA ❑ Streams: NA Site Descriation The subject property is located on the west side of 98th Ave. W. and is currently developed with a single family home. According to the Soil Survey of Snohomish County, soils on the majority of the subject site consist of "Alderwood Gravelly sandy loam 15-25% slopes", and soils on the eastern access panhandle consist of "Alderwood Urban land complex, 2-8% slopes. The majority of the site is relatively level along the eastern most portion of the property and in the vicinity of the existing home, but the site does begin to slope down towards the adjoing properties to the north, east and west. The majority of the slopes on the subject site are greater than a 15% slope per the City LiDAR data, however the slope off of the western property boundary is greater than a 40% slope. Per ECDC 23.80.020.13.4 any slope 40 percent or greater that exceeds a vertical height of 10 feet, shall be considered a potential landslide hazard. Any land disturbing activity within 50 feet of the steep slope will require a geotechnical report per requirements of ECDC 23.80. Additionally, per the City LiDAR data, portions of the site contain slopes greater than a 15% slope. 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. The neighboring properties to the north and east contain stormwater drainage, however based on observation at the site and based on review of the map data, this drainage swale does not meet the definition of a 'stream' as identified in ECDC 23.40.320. 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. Unpermitted alteration of a critical area or buffer (including tree trimming or topping, dumping yard waste, or application of pesticides or fertilizers) can lead to enforcement action and fines. Before undertaking any work, please contact the City to verify whether critical area studies and City review is necessary.
