Dear Applicant:
Pursuant to your application, a site pre-inspection (SPI)was performed on your property. Below
you will find comments made regarding the proposed development and its critical values.
In some cases, setbacks for development from shorelines, steep slopes, streams, and wetlands
must be included in your specific proposal; these setbacks are included as part of the comments
listed below.
This information is based on County and State regulations as they exist to date. These
regulations may change and may affect the requirements for development of the subject property.
Please contact me at(360)427-9670, ext. 365 if you have questions.
Sincerely,
Allan Borden
Land Use Planner

Comments:
Pre-inspection for Jim Peavey on Feb. 26, 2013:
The pre-inspection with applicant to evaluate the rebuild of
existing garage & storage building close to the existing bulkhead
on a 4.60 acre parcel [PN: 1 21 08-4 1-900601 located on Stretch
Island Rd. South and along the shoreline of Case Inlet. The
property has a long driveway leading to the residence and the
bulkhead area along the beach (a 78-ft. wide by 45-ft. deep area
with a boat ramp and wooden bulkhead). At the time of
inspection, the existing garage structure was measured for
dimensions and certain setbacks. The proposed rebuild and/or
additional areas would be located at the proper setbacks based
upon this inspection. These findings state regulations in effect at
inspection time, unless noted otherwise.
Development Regulations standards:
The site is in Rural Residential 5 zone. Standard building
setbacks are 25-foot front yard setback, and 20-foot side property
line and rear yard setbacks. These setbacks are measured from
structures above grade such as roof overhangs, stairs, balconies,
decks, heat pumps, storage buildings, and fuel tanks.
_Y_ An exception is made for lots less than 100 feet in width,
where side yard setbacks are equal to 10 percent of the lot width,
but no less than 5 feet; this property has a 6 ft. side yard setback,
depending on proposed building footprint.
An administrative variance may be requested to reduce
these setback distances from property lines, to as low as 5 feet
(side yard), if the size, shape, or features of the property constrain
development from the proper setbacks. This process requires
application and review at the time of the building permit submittal.
Resource Ordinance Standards:
_N_ Wetland critical area: Planning staff confirmed that the
parcel does not contain a wetland, although a wetland is located
over 200 feet away on the parcel to the south. Certain wetlands
are regulated under Mason County's Wetlands chapter 17.01.070
of the Mason County Resource Ordinance. In this case, the
applicant will not need a wetlands special report during
development review.
N Stream setbacks: If a stream were present, setbacks from

the stream would be determined by the Mason County Resource
Ordinance. No stream is observed within a distance close
enough for standards to apply to proposed development.
_Y_ Slope or Landslide hazards: Slopes greater than 15 percent
adjacent to or within 300 feet of a proposed project and the
eroding bankline along the saltwater were observed on the
property. When proposing development, the applicant shall have
a qualified geologist or engineering geologist visit the subject
parcel and prepare a site analysis to determine whether a
geologic special report (geologic assessment or geotechnical
report) is needed during development review.
_Y Slope or Landslide hazards: If the geologist confirms the
need for a special report when slopes are between 15 and 40
percent, a Geologic Assessment would be needed to address
slope stability, site conditions, and the other requirements of the
enclosed landslide hazard chapter 17.01.100 section E. 4. as
required by the Mason County Resource Ordinance. The report
must include all Resource Ordinance requirements and a
submittal checklist noting where these requirements are found in
the study document.
_Y_ Slope or Landslide hazards: The prepared special report
shall be specific to proposed site development on the subject
parcel by addressing clearing, grading, driveway and building
location, retaining and stabilization walls, and stormwater control.
This special report was submitted and evaluated at the time of
residential building permit submittal in 2010 on the property
adjacent to the west. An amendment to the geoassessment
should be submitted to state the site conditions and effects to site
stability from a proposed garage rebuild and/or expansion.
Y Shoreline setbacks: The shoreline designation for Case Inlet
is Urban Environment per the Mason County Shoreline Master
Program and development setbacks would be determined by the
Mason County Resource Ordinance. The general provisions
include that the shoreline setback is determined by averaging the
distance of setback from the roofline of the adjacent residence on
each side of the subject parcel to the ordinary high water mark
(OHWM) of the Case Inlet shoreline. Any portion of the new
structure, including decks, balconies, and rooflines, must be
behind this common line. Shoreward of this line for 15 feet
toward the shoreline is an area that may be used for lawns, patios
or landscaping (development at grade level). From that point
toward the shoreline is considered to be a required vegetated

buffer that must remain and is regulated by the Mason County
Resource Ordinance Fish and Wildlife Habitat Conservation Areas
Chapter. Within this chapter are those activities listed that can be
done both with and without a Mason Environmental Permit;
proposed tree limbing and limited cutting of trees in the buffer for
view improvement are reviewed by the area permit planner prior
to starting these type of activities.
Staff observed the existing garage near the bulkhead and
adjacent property to the north and west. The 20 ft. wide by 22 ft.
long garage is situated at a corner of the lot created by a short
subdivision in 1985. The location appears to be very close to
those property lines.
The applicant wants to rebuild and / or expand the footprint of the
garage. The building can be rebuilt using the existing footprint
area, but the new building should be located to meet proper side
property line setbacks to the north and west: a minimum of 5 feet
distance. The Resource Ordinance does allow for this
replacement and for an additional area of 10 percent of the
original footprint area, as long as the expansion is on the side of
the structure away from the saltwater shoreline. The garage is
440 sq. ft. area in size (20 ft. wide by 22 ft. long); a 110 percent
footprint area is 484 sq. ft. The garage is 26 feet from the east
face of the wooden bulkhead; 32 feet from the north side of the
bulkhead; and the area to the south of the garage is graded with
gravel surface. The applicant would like to add a 14 ft. deep
extension to the garage (resulting in a garage that is 20 feet wide
and 36 feet long; 720 sq. ft. area), without getting any closer to
the bulkhead and still be safely distant from the boat ramp to the
south. The proposed expanded garage would be situated in an
area that has very little shoreline habitat values and where no
view impacts along the shoreline would result, especially if the
structure remains as a one-story building.
You would need to confirm with the Environmental Health
Department what their septic system standards are to make sure
about the adequacy of supplying a septic disposal for the
proposed development.
General process: Future development must include a site plan,
showing all setbacks from property lines, shoreline, road, and
existing and proposed improvements; this site plan will be needed
for building permit application submittal and review. Specific
County Codes standards for future development may be found at
the County website address http://www.co.mason.wa.us. If you
have any questions please feel free to call. Thank you.
