E A 0 STREET FILE Y OF EDMONDS PLANNING DIVISION DECISION FOR ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT PERMIT FILE # ADU-2005-31 APPLICANT Ruth McCright PROPERTY LOCATION 10125 238`h St. SW PROJECT DESCRIPTION Accessory Dwelling Unit Permit A. INTRODUCTION: Ruth McCright has applied for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) Permit to obtain approval for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) in her home at 10125 238th St. SW. There are currently three dwelling units within the residence. The proposal is to do an interior remodel to change the floor plan of the residence so that it will consist of a primary residence and one Accessory Dwelling Unit. The attached overall site / floor plan (Attachment 1) and the more detailed floor plans (Attachment 2) show the overall layout of the entire residence and the location of the ADU within the residence. The photographs (Attachment 3) show that the house maintains its appearance as a single-family residence. This review consisted of evaluating the proposed ADU for compliance with the ADU criteria provided in ECDC Chapter 20.21. The review determined that the ADU application meets all of these criteria. B. ANALYSIS: Section 20.21.030 of the Edmonds Community Development Code provides the criteria by which the Accessory Dwelling Units are to be reviewed. 1. Number of existing Accessory Dwelling Units on site: A single-family dwelling may have no more than one accessory dwelling unit per lot (ECDC 20.21.030). The proposal will result in only one ADU. 2. Size: Accessory Dwelling Units are limited to 800 square feet and 40% of the floor area of the principal dwelling and no more than two bedrooms. The proposed ADU will have a total of 467 square feet and will occupy approximately 28% of the 1505 total square feet of the residence. The square footage of the ADU was determined by measuring the room dimensions of the ADU as indicated by the detailed floor plans (Attachment 2). 3. Location and Appearance: Accessory Dwelling Units must be located.within or attached to single-family dwelling units and the design of the ADU must be incorporated into the design of the primary residence so the single-family character and appearance of the residence is maintained. New entrances are to be placed at the rear or side of the home whenever possible. (ECDC 20.21.030.D) Page 2 McCright ADU File No. ADU-2005-31 The site / floor plan (Attachment 1) shows the orientation of the McRight residence on the lot and the detailed floor plans distinguish the ADU from the primary residence (Attachment 2). The Accessory Dwelling Unit is in the northern end of the house and the entrance to the ADU is on the west side of the house. The primary residence consists of a southern portion with a living room, kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom. This portion of the house is connected with a northern portion of the house by a partially enclosed breezeway. The northern portion of the residence contains a garage, shop, laundry room and bathroom and the ADU. Photographs (Attachment 3) of the house from different perspectives show that the ADU portion of the house is not readily distinguishable from the rest of the house. 4. Parking: A single-family residence with an Accessory Dwelling Unit requires 3 parking spaces. One of these spaces is allowed to be a tandem or stacked space. The site / floor plan (Attachment 1) shows at least three parking spaces to be provided on the property. 5. Occupancy: The homeowner has signed an affidavit that states that she occupies one of the units for a minimum of six months of the year (Attachment 4). The total number of occupants in the primary residence and in the Accessory Dwelling Unit may not exceed one "family," as defined by the Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC). This definition has been included as Attachment 5 but briefly, means two or more persons who are related or a group of five or fewer persons who are not related. 6. Safety, Light, Ventilation: The proposed remodel that will result in the configuration shown for the ADU will require a building permit application. The granting of this permit and the associated inspection by a City Building Inspector will ensure that the Accessory Dwelling Unit meets the requirements of all life -safety codes and standards. 7. Public Comment: The review of an Accessory Dwelling Unit permit requires public notice of the staff decision. A public comment period for this application was provided from May 27, 2005 through June 13, 2005. The public comment letters that were received are included at Attachment 6. None of the issues brought up by the comment letters had to do with the application's ability to meet the ADU criteria. Some of the issues brought up appear to be law enforcement issues that should be reported to the police. C. DECISION: Approved with the following conditions: This preliminary decision shall become final as conditioned below, unless a written appeal is received. 1. This permit shall expire automatically if any of the following issues arise: a. The Accessory Dwelling unit is substantially altered and is thus no longer in conformance with the plans and drawings reviewed and approved by the permitting authority and building official. Page 3 McCright ADU File No. ADU-2005-31 b. The subject site ceases to maintain the required number of parking spaces. c. The property owner ceases to reside in either the primary residence or the accessory dwelling unit, the owner -occupied unit is rented, or the current (or future) owner fails to file the affidavit required under ECDC 20.21.025.A.1 with the City. 2. A building permit and inspection through the City Building Division is required prior to occupancy of the Accessory Dwelling Unit. 3. The property owner(s) must have the covenant which provides notice to future owners of the limitations of the Accessory Dwelling unit permit and the restoration of the site to a single-family dwelling without an ADU in the event that any condition of approval is violated, recorded with the Snohomish County Auditor (Attachment 7). A recording fee is required. 4. The Accessory Dwelling unit permit is transferable to future owners of the residence unless there is a violation of any conditions of approval. 5. All new property owners must file their own affidavit of occupancy with the City of Edmonds Planning Division. For an example of this form see Attachment 6. Entered this 29" day of June 2005, pursuant to the authority granted city staff under Chapter 20.95 of the Community Development Code of the City of Edmonds. Star Campbell, Planner D. REQUEST FOR RECONSIDERATION, TIMEFRAMES AND APPEALS Request for Reconsideration: Section 20.95.050.B.2. provides for Staff to reconsider his decision or recommendation if a written request for reconsideration is filed by the applicant within ten (10) working days of the date of the initial decision. The reconsideration request must cite specific references to the findings and/or the criteria contained in the ordinances governing the type of application being reviewed. Appeals: Section 20.105.010.A describes how appeals of a Staff decision shall be made. The Appeal shall be made in writing, and shall include the decision being appealed along with the name of the project applicant and the date of the decision, the name and address of the individual or group appealing the decision, their interest in the matter, and reasons why the appellant believes the decision to be wrong. The appeal must be filed with the Page 4 McCright ADU File No. ADU-2005-31 Development Services Director within fourteen (14) calendar days after the date that the decision is issued. Appeals are presented to the Hearing Examiner. Timeframec_ The time limits for Reconsiderations and Appeals run concurrently. If a request for reconsideration is filed before the time limit for filing an appeal has expired, the time "clock" for filing an appeal is stopped until a decision on the reconsideration request is completed. Once the staff has issued their decision on the reconsideration request, the time clock for filing an appeal continues from the point it was stopped. For example, if a reconsideration request is filed on day 5 of the appeal period, an individual would have 9 more days in which to file an appeal after the staff issues their decision on the reconsideration request.

June 8, 2005`" To: Star Campbell, City of Edmonds Development Services Department�T�\� Re: File # ADU-05-31 We are writing in regards to File # ADU-05-31 and the application for approval of an Accessory Dwelling Unit within the residence of Ms. Ruth McCright at 10125 — 23EP St. SW, Edmonds, WA 98020. We are STRONGLY OPPOSED to this action. Our reasons for opposing the subject land use action may be summarized by: 1. Parking Safety 2. Problematic Tenant Behavior 3. Precedent Parking Safety: The infrastructure of 23e St. SW does not even support the current number of cars at the McCright property. Approval of an Accessory Dwelling Unit would legalize and add to the parking problem. The property is a single lot with THREE dwellings on it. Five cars are usually parked in front of the house. There have been as many as ten vehicles staying at the property. They park on the lot and on both sides of the street in front of it. (See Images 2 and 3.) As the lot is narrow and'deep, any parking has to be out front spreading onto pedestrian walkways and neighboring grass strips. 23e has no shoulder for parking. Cars parked on the south side of 238"', not only park on the walkway, but also cause a blind spot for any car leaving 101s Pl. W. In addition, this parking has made it difficult to maintain the grass strip. Cars parked on the north side of 238!' in front of the applicant's eastern neighbor block the walkway near a school bus stop. This forces pedestrians to walk in the roadway around the parked cars. The pedestrian walkway and grass strip across the street from the applicant served as the parking place for one of the applicant's tenants for a period of.approximately 3 years. This made it difficult for us to mow the entire grass. We left the tenant a polite windshield note asking to please not park on the grass. We found the note wadded up and thrown in our backyard the next day. The parking continued unabated. The parking issue was brought to the attention of the applicant two separate times. The applicant's responses were generally that she was unable to control the problem. In one instance the applicant stated the following: "Lee [the tenant] won't listen to me. He just does whatever he wants to." Problematic Tenant Behavior. Because of the tenants at the applicant's property, neighbors have called the police numerous times to deal with late -night parties, fights, illegal fireworks, etc. We've listed problematic behavior that we have seen: • Loud parties •. Public drunkenness resulting in yelling, swearing, and fighting at all hours of the night • Littering the street, the pedestrian walkways, and the neighbors yards with beer cans, beer bottles, liquor bottles, and fast food garbage • Waist -down public nudity • Public urination • Deployment of illegal fireworks • Car racing, and high speed car chasing • Driving on the grass and pedestrian walkways to turn around FILE# ADU-05-31 Page 1 of 4 June 8, 2005 Vandalisnr/Car fire burnouts in the grass: The most recent tire burnout was a 70-foot long stripe in the grass on the south side of 23e street. (See Image 1.) 1 telephoned the applicant and pointed out that this was vandalism, and asked her to please speak to her tenants to stop this kind of activity. To her credit, she agreed to speak with them. But in referring to her tenants, the applicant also showed her lack of concern for neighborhood residents when she stated: "Once they leave my property their actions are not my responsibility." Lack of personal responsibility: For years, the applicant has been either unable or unwilling to control the activities of her tenants as attested to by the above events. The various tenants living at the applicants dwelling have displayed this pattem of problematic behavior for over 10 years. Precedent Approval of this ADU on the McCright property sets an adverse precedent that would allow other property -owners to build multi -family dwellings on single-family lots. The infrastructure of this neighborhood will not support this change. 23EP is a popular pedestrian route, and also one of the few access roads to multiple housing developments. In the last year traffic volume on 231P St SW has increased significantly due to the new Woodway Highlands development. 238"' St SW cannot safely support both street parking and pedestrian traffic For the above reasons, we ask the city of Edmonds to reject the subject ADU. Granting it will decrease the safety and livability of this neighborhood. Sincerely, John and Tracie Schlatter, neighbors at 23806 —1011 PI. W Edmonds, WA 98020 (206) 546-8809 FILE# ADU-05-31 Page 2 of 4 June 8, 2005 Image 1: A 70-foot long car tire burnout in the grass on the south side of 238"h Street SW, across the street from the applicant's dwelling. (The view is looking east towards 101st PI. W.) This vandalism was committed during the night after a party at the applicants dwelling. Typical pedestrian traffic is seen in the upper left comer. The applicant's tenants frequently park on the pedestrian walkway and the grass. FILE# ADU-05-31 Page 3 of 4 June 8, 2005 Image 2 (left) and Image 3 (right): These images are looking north across 238 St SW. Nine cars are visible in front of the applicant's dwelling and the home next door. The elementary school bus stop is just out of view to the right of the red van. Note that the three cars parked parallel to 238th St SW are blocking the walkway, forcing pedestrians into the street. FILE# ADU-05-31, Page 4 of 4 June 8, 2005 May 27, 2005 q9 y �. In response to the Application sent to my residence, file # ADU-05-31 A�q O�pT Based on past experiences from this property we would not be in favor of the City of Edmonds approving this application. It has in the past had multiple renters, not sure on the status of that at this time. Lots of late night activity, this occurs after the 10:00 PM city curfew. This can and has been several times a week. The nicer the weather, the more visitors to the property. Loud talking and commotion in the wee hours. The cars then do u-turns and can sometimes leave fast and/or aggressively, this would occur in the early hours of the morning. Garbage left on the sidewalks and walkways. (Alcoholic rubbish) They also park on what the city has told me is the sidewalk. Is this legal? Underage drinking: This was voiced from one of the minor's parents, who shared there concerns with me. Police have frequented the home in past years. One example: They had a full blown fist fight in the middle of the street. Police had to be called. Too many vehicles on the property for city code. And the biggest reason: This area is zoned SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL make once exception and we will all want to join in on extra cash flow. Thank you and the vote from our house would be NO.
