Comments
To whom it may concern on Associate File Number PR24-
000044/LUA24-000171, SHPL-A, MOD We own the home directly
to the west side of this proposed project (Tsai Short Plat). Our
address is: 2219 NE 23rd Street. Our comments/concerns are outlined
below: 1. Geotechnical: A landslide on our property would be
catastrophic and potentially deadly. I suspect it would be the same for
the next few properties to our west and south, since their backyards
are equally steep. Is it possible to get another opinion with respect to
a potential landslide and as a minimum require whatever effort can be
taken to reduce that possibility. Additionally, can the project owner
be required to post a bond or carry some kind of insurance for the
adjacent properties in the event of a landslide. 2. Drainage: We have
owned our home for approximately 3 years and have not experienced
any drainage/water issues. It appears that the placement of this new
house will/may block the current water runoff. Where will the Dry
well be placed and will it be sufficient to make sure there is no
overload during heavy rains. Will it be sufficient to capture run-off
from the homes on Lot A and B and all the properties south and west
of this lot. 3. Arborist: The arborist report is a couple years old. Is it
possible more trees now fall within the 8 in criteria, and as such,
more trees need to be retained to comply with the 30%. It appears the
Portuguese laurels (tree # 665 and #664) are to be retained. We would
like assurance that those trees will survive and not be heavily pruned,
they are the main trees that will allow us to keep some of our privacy
and not negatively impact any of our trees/vegetation. 4. Privacy: We
request Lots A and B be fully fenced, and landscaping be added
wherever possible to retain the privacy between all the surrounding
lots. We are certainly open to adding additional landscaping on our
side to assist in this goal. 5. Two nearby residents (one directly south
of the project one on the west side of us) do not speak fluent English.
Is there a method to ensure their input/comments can be obtained?
