During review of the subject submittal, it was found that the following information, corrections, or
clarifications would need to be addressed. All Handouts referred to in these comments can be accessed at
our website: www.ci.edmonds.wa.usunder City Government / Development Services Department /
Engineering Division then scroll down to Handouts:
3/3/142) Pleaseshow the entire site on site plan and locate propertyline.
3/27/14-With the submission of yoursite plan,the alignment of your property line at the north-northeast corner
brought to mind questionspertaining to the right of way.While reviewing I discovered that the property
line sits 2’behind the sidewalk along theeast side of the property(see attached site plan). This puts the
proposed pavers and possiblyplantersand water features within the right of way.Such itemsare not
permitted within the right of waywithout a separate permit approval. The pavers would be considered a
permanent structureand would require an encroachment permit.Planters and water features would be
consideredtemporary or movable objectsandwould require aStreet Use permit.
That said,I have learned there is an encroachment permit for the existing deck. It may be possible that
we can amend the existing encroachment permit to include the pavers within the right of way. Attached
is the existing Encroachment Agreement as well as a handout for encroachment permit requirements.
, if you do intend to place these
1) Pleasefill out and submit the Encroachment permit application E-26
features within the right of way. Please revise the existing Encroachment Agreement so that it reflects
the existing encroachments as well as the proposed encroachment (pavers)(Section 3 of agreement).
Please make sure to reference previous recording number.You will also need to showthe encroachment
within Exhibit “B”, site plan, similar in manner to existingencroachments.
2). Please provide dimensions for the proposed hardscape in relation to the sidewalk and existing
structure.
Note: Itwould be acceptable to pournon-stamped,non-color concreteto city standardswithin the2’ of
right of way, without an encroachment permit.
3). Placement of water features and planters within the right of way willrequire a street use permit.
Please see attached Street Use Agreementand Street Use Permit RequirementsE75.
