Ben,
Typically, we do a pre-screen of your application materials before you submit so that we can
review and provide corrections before the application is formally submitted. To initiate the pre-
screen, you can email me the documents (or provide via a drop box). Once the corrections from
the pre-screen have been made, I will do a formal intake. Typically you will schedule a submittal
appointment with me and you will bring a flash drive or cd to the meeting. Once the application
has been formally accepted, I will post a pink Notice of Application poster on the Public
Information Sign. Before I take the application in, the sign will need to be installed.
Hopefully this answers your question, please let me know if you need further clarification.

Ben,
I apologize for the delay in getting back to you, however we had some staff out that
made it difficult to run your questions up the chain. Regarding the service area, we
are okay with the projection of the service area within the setback. Regarding the
frontage improvements we would like our standard curb, then 8-foot planter, then
sidewalk for as much of the frontage as possible. This would be challenging along
NE 17th St due to the 0-foot setback for the refuse area. Along this frontage we
would be willing to modify our street standards to reduce the landscape strip
between the curb and sidewalk to 5 feet, which would allow for some additional
landscaping between the sidewalk and building.
Please let me know if you have additional questions.

Thanks Jill,
I’m trying to balance the requirements and get at objective that would help the neighborhood.
The retaining wall on the property to the west is also a formidable challenge that we’re going to
have to deal with somehow. It would be awfully strange to run the sidewalk straight into it.

Hi Jill,
Thanks for your feedback. We’ll proceed with this understanding.
I’d hoped we’d be able to shift the sidewalk to the curb along 17th because with the
0’ proposed setback at the waste enclosure, we could have used the r.o.w. space
between the property line and sidewalk as a landscaped berm to hide more of the
wall. See images below.

Hi Ben,
Thanks for reaching out. I have been briefed on the project
by Clark and understand there are a couple of issues that
still need to be resolved before permit application is made.
We are in the process of running the refuse modification up
the chain as soon as I have feedback on that issue, I will let
you know. Regarding the frontage improvements, we
understand there will need to be some transitions made
where your project site abuts neighboring properties.
However, we do want to ensure that we have our standard
frontage improvements for as much of the frontage as
possible.
Hope this provides the direction you were looking for.

Hi Jill,
I understand that you’re now our designated planner. Wondering if I
you have a moment to look at these last remaining conditions that I’d
inquired about with Clark Close for our proposed dental office

Hi Clark,
Great, this helps us move forward
with our consultants.
Perhaps for Monday, you could
trouble you to include a few other
clarifications regarding the sidewalk
transitions to the neighboring
parcels…
1.) On NE 17th, the sidewalk
behind a planter strip would
terminate head-on into a rip-
rap retaining wall on the
neighbor’s parcel to the west.
Wondering how that get’s
resolved? That’s why we were
considering a modification to
the standards and placing the
sidewalk adjacent to the curb,
which sounded like a
possibility coming out of the
pre-app.
2.) On Duvall Ave NE at our
south property line, would our
responsibility for the new
sidewalk end right at the south
property line? Wondering too
how the new 8’ walk
how the new 8’ walk
transitions back to the existing
6’ wide sidewalk at face of
curb along neighbor’s parcel?
and a clarification on the
setback modification….
3.) We would like to have the
waste/recycling be considered
a portion of the building and
would be seeking a zero foot
setback along NE 17th.
Really appreciate your assistance.
Thanks,

Ben,
Please find attached
updated site plan
review application (the
check marks are
applicable submittal
material). I’ve assumed
the project valuation
the project valuation
was under 10 million
dollars so no public
outreach sign or
neighborhood meeting
would be required. The
location of the refuse
and recycling would
require a modification
to locate in the
secondary front yard
setback and provide a
less than required
minimum gate opening.
I should have more
feedback about the
project design by
Monday afternoon.
The location of the
sidewalk on NE 17th St
needs to be behind the
planter strip, more as
follows:
<image002.jpg>
Development
Engineering will not
allow you to add a 2’
addition the existing
ADA ramp at the corner
of NE 17th St and
Duvall Ave NE. The
corner ramp will need
to be redesigned and
the sidewalk on Duvall
Ave NE should be
straight with no angles
(this may require the
relocation of the lamp
post). Please verify the
minimum 8-foot
planting strip on Duvall
Ave NE.
Let me know if you
have any further
questions.
