Critical Area Determination (CRA20160140)
Based on a review and inspection of the subject site, staff has determined that one or more
critical areas are located on or near the site. Critical areas are ecologically sensitive or
hazardous areas that are protected in order to maintain their functions and values.
Site Location 1600075 th Place West
Tax Account Number 00513102901100
Property Owner Jorge and Marie Florez
Applicant Jorge and Marie Florez
Critical Area(s) Present ❑ Wetlands (ECDC 23.50)
❑ Frequently Flooded Areas (ECDC 23.70)
® Geologically Hazardous Areas (ECDC 23.80)
® Erosion Hazard Areas
® Landslide Hazard Areas
❑ Seismic Hazard Areas
❑ Fish & Wildlife Habitat Conservation Areas (ECDC 23.90)
❑ Streams
Site Description
During review and inspection of the subject site, it was found that the site may contain (or be
adjacent to) critical areas, including Geologically Hazardous Areas (severe Erosion Hazard Area
and Landslide Hazard Area), pursuant to Chapter 23.40 of the Edmonds Community
Development Code (ECDC).
The LiDAR map (attached) indicates that there is a moderate -to -steep west -facing on the
property. Soils on the site are identified as Alderwood-Everett gravelly sandy loam in the 15-
25% to 25-70% range. The slope drops approximately 38 -feet over a vertical distance of 175 -
feet, approximately 21.7% grade. The combination of soil type and grade of slopes designate
the site as potential for Severe Erosion Hazard.
Also, these properties are located within the designated Earth Subsidence and Landslide Hazard
Area (ESLHA). Please contact a Permit Coordinator in the Building Division at 425.771.0220 or
consult ECDC 19.10 if you have questions about developing property in this neighborhood.
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.
