RE: PLAN REVIEW COMMENTS FOR PLAN CHECK # 2007-1234
TH
JANSEN NEW RESIDENCE AT 701 – 6 AVENUE SOUTH
Dear Applicant:
th
I have reviewed your resubmittal received on February 26 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.It was noted that you slightly reduced the dimensions of the proposed residence
in order to reduce the proposed lot coverage; however, your site plan must be corrected to
reflect the updated dimensions/design of the proposed residence. Please show the outlines
of the proposed rounded bumpouts on the decks and draw the dimensions of the residence
to scale.
Height Calculations:
2.Since the dimensions of the residence were reduced, it is possible
that the elevations of the four corners of your height rectangle may have changed as well.
When you update the site plan to reflect the actual dimensions of the residence, please also
update your height rectangle and the elevations of the four corners if necessary. If the
elevations of any of the corners change, please also update your height calculations
accordingly.
Lot Coverage:
3.It was noted that you updated your breakdown of lot coverage calculations;
however, upon review of the updated floor plans and the breakdown of your lot coverage
calculations, it still appears that the proposed coverage is slightly over 35%. It is unclear if
your calculations include the rounded bumpouts on the decks that are shown on your floor
plans. Your lot coverage calculations should also include the portion of the front stairs that
are over 3’ in height since the definition of a “structure” includes combinations of materials
over 3’ in height. It also appears that your calculations may have been rounded down
slightly; however, the numbers used for lot coverage calculations may not be rounded
down. Please update your lot coverage breakdown diagram to include all portions of the
proposed footprint, and please decrease the proposed lot coverage as necessary so that it
does not exceed 35% of the total lot area.
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.
Sincerely,
Development Services Department - Planning Division
