Home My WebLink AboutExhibit_4_-_Project_Narrative4648 Shantel St, Mount Vernon, WA 98274 Cell Phone: 206 714-7161 email: cliff@sitedme.com Development Management Engineers, LLC The Developer’s Engineering Advocate PROJECT NARRATIVE EDMONDS @ 4TH This is a building permit application for construction of a SFR on a vacant lot. The triangular shaped configuration and slope of the lot make it a challenge to meet the City design standards. The property is bordered by City ROW on all 3 sides with NE 4th St on the southwest, Edmonds Ave on the west and a vacant ROW bordering the north property line. Attempts were initially made to apply for a ROW vacation of the vacant portion bordering the north PL. However, the adjoining neighbors north of this ROW were not interested so the vacation concept was dropped. Through discussions with City staff, a revised and updated Roadway/Drainage Determination dated 10/12/23 was issued providing conditions for development of the site. The proposed site plan follows the City’s recommendation to locate the driveway in the unimproved ROW with connection to the existing Edmonds Ave NE sidewalk. We understand as part of the building permit, improvements may be required in the ROW, including streetlights, undergrounding overhead utilities and replacement of the ADA ramps at the Edmonds Ave NE and Ferndale Ave NE intersection. See attached copy of email from CED Development Engineering for details of improvements. As noted in the email, the Civil Construction Permit is considered a ‘light’ civil permit with modifications to the permit process. The Civil Construction Permit application will be under a separate cover which has been reserved as Civil Permit C23005235.

Since some of the 'Civil Light' elements involve other parties, we respectfully request permission to submit the other building permit application documents at this time. This will allow us to address any review comments in a timely manner. To adhere to the Roadway/Drainage Determination requirements, issuance of the building permit could be conditioned upon approval of the 'Civil Light' permit.

We are using the Civil Permit template, but we are doing it as a “civil light ” permit. Meaning it will have a Civil Work Class, but will not be the full review and fees. It does sll allow us to have the improvements turned over to the City via the Bill of Sale Process. 1. Revising the existing ADA ramp at the Edmonds/Ferndale intersection. This would include both the north and south side of Ferndale and possible relocating curb openings to pedestrian side west of Edmonds. This will need engineered drawings. 2. Installing the driveway cut. This new driveway will be in the current dirt, unimproved shoulder. From the driveway north – a short sidewalk will be needed to connect to the existing. 3. Installing 1 new street light on Edmonds Ave. Correct 4. Undergrounding the existing overhead power line. Yes, the one pole on the east side of Edmonds will go away and all power, phone and cable will be underground.

Installing 1 new street light on Edmonds Ave. 4. Undergrounding the existing overhead power line. Is it not possible to handle these improvements with a ROW permit rather than requiring a Civil Construction Permit Application? All the other required submittals are ready for submittal now.
