RE: COMMENTS ON 1ST DRAFT RECORDING DOCUMENTS
FOR CHEEKS SHORT PLAT FILE NO. PLN20150043 AND
BURLEIGH SHORT PLAT FILE NO. PLN20150047
Dear Mr. Roland:
The Planning and Engineering Divisions have reviewed the above draft recording documents, and it was
found that the following information, corrections, or clarifications will need to be addressed before
review can continue:
The submitted recording documents do not include all the necessary information describing the new
lots and easements that are to be created by the recording of this document. Rather than returning
the document as incomplete, or specifically addressing each item, we have provided a checklist of
what information is required on a short plat recording document for you to use as a guide along with
some more specific comments. When the required section has been provided, you will see the note
"Done". Additional comments may follow these plan review comments in a subsequent review of
the plans.
1. Name of Short Plat and PLN number:
a. Cheeks - Done
b. Burleigh — PLN20150047: Correct the file number on sheet 1 of the Burleigh short plat under
the Owner's Certificate & Dedication section.
2. Owner's Certificate and Dedication or a Declaration of Short Plat:
a. Revise Title of this section to state "Declaration of Short Plat". Remove references to
public dedication.
3. Acknowledgments: Done.
4. Hold Harmless: Done.
5. Project Notes (separate section not needed): This section should be removed and the notes found
within shall be moved into the sections noted below or removed as appropriate.
6. Restrictions: This section should contain the conditions of approval statement and covenant
information
Page 1 of 4
7. References (separate section not needed): This section should be removed from the plans and the
information noted within should be placed under Restrictions, Legal Description (Notes) or Title
Encumbrances.
a. Burleigh — PLN20150047: PLN20150047 includes a reference to the conditions of approval
under the Reference section; however, it includes an incorrect date of approval. Please
provide the correct date of approval on resubmittal.
8. Title Notes and Schedule B Exceptions (separate section not needed): These sections should be
removed from the plans and the information noted within should be placed under Legal
Description (Notes) or Title Encumbrances.
9. Title Encumbrances:
a. Both PLN20150043 and PLN20150047 reference easements in plan view and state "per
recording number". However, the recording numbers have not been provided. Please revise
accordingly and include a description of all existing easements encumbering the property
under the Title Encumbrances section.
b. Remove the Title Notes and Schedule B Exceptions.
10. Remove Applicant/Owner, Engineer and Plat Site information from the first page of each short
plat.
11. Treasurer's Certification: Done.
12. Auditor's Certification: Done.
13. Land Surveyor's Certificate: Partially Completed:
a. The surveyors name and signature must be provided for on both PLN201.50043 and
PLN20150047
14. Legal Description of the original -: Done.
15. Legal Description of each new lot created by the subdivision.
a. Include bearings and distances for each of the proposed lots. The Cheeks SP does not
include the bearings for the east and western boundaries of Lot 2.
16. Zoniniz and Lot Information: This section should note Site Area. New lot addresses and the
Gross and Net lot areas of each lot.
a. Please include the gross and net lot areas for each the proposed lot. It appears an access
easement has been added to Lot 4 of the Cheeks short plat that was not shown on the
preliminary approvals. The access easement area has not been subtracted from Lot 4. It
appears subtracting this easement would drop Lot 4 below the minimum 8,000 square feet lot
area. Please explain this easement.
b. Provide the addresses for the new lots on Sheet 2 of each of the subdivisions as follows.
PLN20150043: Lot 1: 22920 - 102" d Pl W
(Cheeks) Lot 2: 22922 - 102nd Pl W
Lot 3: 22924 - 102nd Pl W
Lot 4: 22926 - 102nd Pl W
Page 2 of 4
PLN20150047: Lot 1: 22930 - 102n1 Pl W
(Burleigh) Lot 2: 22932 - 102nd Pl W
Lot 3: 22934 - 102nd PI W
Lot 4: 22936 - 102nd Pl W
17. Easement Provisions: Revise section title to state "Public Easement Provisions". This section
should contain up blic utility easements, not private easements. Move private easements into a
separate section titled "Private Easement Provisions".
a. The descriptions of the easements on the face of the plat do not agree with the drawing.
b. No easements on other properties should be shown on the drawings unless they serve the
subject short plat (i.e. the OVWSD easements that are on the Burleigh SP do not belong on
the Cheeks SP.) Is OVWSD taking ownership of the sewer and water lines within the SP? If
so, then a separate OVWSD easement describing its parameters needs to be added. If not,
then the water and sewer easements are private.
18. Private Easement Provisions: All water, sewer, storm and access easements within the plat shall
be described in this section. Easement descriptions shall include the lot(s) that the easements
reside on and the beneficiary(s) of the easement.
a. There is also a stormwater easement on the Burleigh SP that benefits the Cheek SP. Show it
on the plans and describe it.
b. In this section there also should be a description of the easement area(s) within the Cheeks
SP where the sewer and water services from the Burleigh SP cross to connect to the main
lines. These are on the Cheeks property and therefore need to be shown on the drawings and
described specifically; Lot it is located and lot that benefits.
Why is there a 5' easement on Lot 4? Is there a service within that property that serves
another property? Describe it on the face of plat.
d. All access easements should also be described in this section.
19. Private Easement Maintenance Provisions: Private easements shall have maintenance provisions
described in this section. The Ingress, Egress, and Utility Easement could be used to cover
everything, though consider the idea that Lot 1, for example, may not want to share maintenance
of the entire sewer line since it is at the beginning of the run and doesn't use any of the line
crossing Lots 2-4.
20. Stormwater Provisions (separate section not needed): There is not a detention facility on site.
The infiltration system is located on Lot 4 and the Burleigh SP. Add easements as described
above and include under the Private Easement Maintenance Provisions section
21. Stormwater Facility Maintenance Provision: Add verbiage similar to the following, placing
restrictions on the amount of impervious surface area to be constructed on each lot. "A
stormwater management facility is to be constructed on Lot X for the benefit of Lots X - X, as
approved by the City of Edmonds. The approved plans are on file with the City of Edmonds
under file number PLN201500XX. Consistent with this approval, Lot 1 has been allotted Xsf of
Page 3 of 4
new impervious surface area for future site improvements, Lot 2 has been allotted Xsf of new
impervious surface area for the house, patio, walkway and driveway ... and so forth."
22. Public Easement for City Access to Stormwater System: An easement to the City of Edmonds
for inspection of the stormwater management system shall be provided and shown on the
recording documents. The easement language should read something similar to: "A permanent
access easement is hereby granted to the City of Edmonds for access and inspection of any and
all areas within Lots X of this short plat that may now, or in the future, contain any stormwater
management facilities and/or system(s), including all appurtenances therefore and thereto. Said
access easement shall be for inspection purposes to ensure that stormwater facilities and/or
system(s) are properly operated and maintained in accordance with City of Edmonds Code."
23. City Approvals: Done.
24. Pursuant to ECDC 20.75.135.C, monuments shall be set at street intersections, lot and block
corners, boundary angle points, points of curbs in streets, controlling corners on the boundaries
of the land. Neither the Cheeks nor Burleigh short plats indicate that monuments have been set
as required by ECDC 20.75.135.C.
25. As-builts have been submitted for items that haven't been built or inspected. Final inspections
and approved as-builts will be required prior to final.
26. The parcel numbers are incorrect for the subject properties on both the Burleigh and Cheeks
short plat documents. Please correct if to be included on the final recording documents.
27. (D (Z OO appear on each of the lots on both the Burleigh and Cheeks short plats. These do not
appear to reference anything. Please remove from the recording documents of both short plats.
28. Note that all signatures on the final documents must be made in black ink. It is suggested,
however, that you submit the revised recording documents to staff for a second review prior to
obtaining all required signatures.
29. All pages of the final recording documents must comply with the Snohomish County Auditor's
recording requirements, which are available for your reference via the following link:
http://wwwl.co.snohomish.wa.us/Departments/Auditor/Divisions/Recording/. It appears that the
draft recording documents may not meet all of the recording requirements. It is the applicant's
responsibility to ensure compliance with the Auditor's recording requirements in order to avoid
issues at the time of recording.
30. Note that Snohomish County requires that all of the taxes for the subject site be paid prior to
recording.
Please make the above changes and submit your updated recording documents to the Planning Division.
Our office hours are Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays between 8:00 am and 4:30 pm or on
Wednesdays between 8:30 am and 12:00.
Please feel free to contact us 425-771-0220 or by e-mail at kernen.lienkedmondswa.gov or
joAnne.zulauf(a�edmondswa.gov if you have specific questions regarding these plan corrections.
