RE: PLAN REVIEW COMMENTS FOR PLAN CHECK # 2014-0033
NEW SFR AT 707 6T" AVE. S
Dear Rick,
I have reviewed the above building permit application for the Planning Division. Before I can sign off on
the permit, however, the following information needs to be clarified in a written response:
1. Lot Status: It was noted that the subject parcel is narrower than the minimum 60 -foot lot
width required by the RS -6 zone. Because the lot was unplatted, please provide a copy of a
deed from at least prior to July 1956 in order to confirm whether the lot can be considered
legal nonconforming pursuant to ECDC 17.40.030.
2. Datum point: On Sheet SP -1, please label the datum point used to establish the height
calculations.
3. Height calculations: On Sheet SP -1, the height elevations shown in the height call -out box
don't match those on the site plan itself. Please verify and update as necessary; update the
elevation on Sheet Al as appropriate.
4. Structural lot coverage: On Sheet SP -1, please provide a break out of the structural lot
coverage elements for the site and a total coverage calculation as a percentage of lot area.
According to ECDC 21.15.100, "Coverage means the total ground coverage of all building or
structures on a site measured from the outside of external walls or supporting members or
from a point two and one-half feet in from the outside edge of a cantilevered roof, whichever
covers the greatest area." The maximum percentage of structural lot coverage is 35%.
All referenced code sections are available at the following website:
http://www.mrsc.org/mc/edmonds/Edmondsnt.html.
Please submit three copies of your updated site plan (one being reduced size of 11 x 17 or smaller)
and two sets of any updated sheets of the building plans. Please make all submittals to a Permit
Coordinator, Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 4:30 pm (8 am to 12 pm only on Wednesdays). If
you have any questions, please contact me at (425) 771-0220.
Sincerely,
Mike Clugston, AICP
