RE: PLAN REVIEW COMMENTS FOR PLAN CHECK # 2007-1014

STREET SOUTHWEST
HINKEL ADDITION AT 7517 – 172
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Hinkel:
I have reviewed your submittal for the above building permit application for the Planning Division and it
was found that the following information, corrections, or clarifications will need to be addressed before
review can continue:
Site Plan:
1. Please make the following corrections to your site plan:
a.Label the existing carport.
b.Since the property is a corner lot, the minimum required setbacks are 25 foot street
setbacks from the eastern and southern property lines and 10 foot side setbacks (must add
up to 35 feet between sides) from the western and northern property lines. Please correct
the building setback lines accordingly on your site plan.
Height Calculations:
2. Please make the following corrections to your height calculations:
a.The elevations provided for Points C and D of your height rectangle are 105’ and 96’,
respectively. However, based on the topography shown on your site plan, it appears that
the elevations of these two points should be closer to 95’ for Point C and 90’ for Point D.
Please correct the elevations of the corners of the height rectangle and/or the topography
lines as necessary to provide accurate height calculations.
b.Two points are labeled on your site plan as the datum point. Please clarify what was used
as the datum point and provide its elevation.
c.Please clarify what the numbers near the four corners of the height rectangle are
indicating (i.e. -17.0 prior, -15.0 new, etc.). It appears that these are elevations in respect
to the second datum point; however, only one datum point and one set of height
calculations/elevations should be provided to avoid confusion.
d.The elevations provided for the average grade do not correspond with the elevations
provided for the maximum and actual height. Please correct your height calculations and
show the maximum height as the average grade plus 25 feet. Show the updated average
grade, maximum height, and actual height on the building elevations as well.
Lot Coverage:
3. It appears that the existing carport was not included in your lot coverage
calculations. Lot coverage is defined as the total ground coverage of all buildings or structures on a
site measured from the outside of external walls or supporting members or from a point 30 inches in
from the outside edge of the eaves, whichever covers the greatest area. Please update your lot
coverage calculations to correspond with this definition.
Please submit three copies of the updated site plan (at least one copy must be reduced in size) and only two
copies of any affected sheets of the building plans. Please make all submittals to a Development Services
Permit Coordinator, Monday through Friday, excluding Wednesdays, between 8:00 am and 4:30 pm. If
you have any questions, feel free to contact me at (425) 771-0220, ext. 1224. I look forward to working
with you on this project.
Sincerely,
Development Services Department - Planning Division
Jen Machuga, Planner
