Dear Mr. Olmstead,
Today I was going through a box of old files and found your unapproved boundary line
adjustment (BLA) case from 2008 for your Pirate's Cove parcels. It looks like the BLA
application was not approved for two reasons, but I did not find any evidence in the file that
you had been notified of this. Normally an application for a case that has sat for this long
would be considered to have expired, however because I can find no record of
correspondence, I will,keep the case open for another 180-days from today's date in order to
give you an opportunity to resolve the problems with this application.
The reason that your BLA was not approved is that the design increased existing non-
conformity with the Health Code with one of the parcels dropping it from 14,790 sq. ft to 13,
980 sq. ft. The Health Department denied the BLA on July 7, 2008 because of that reduction
in lot size. Apparently, at your location, a conforming parcel size for Health regulations with
on site septic and community water is 18,000 sq. ft. Notes in the file indicate that your
surveyor, Bob Emerson, was going to reconfigure the lots so that there was no change to the
actual square footage, but as your probably know, Bob Emerson has since left town with no
forwarding address.
To salvage this BLA, you need a new map, declaration and application. However a
surveyor's help is not required. I recommend that you contact a local title company to help
you modify this BLA into something that Mason County can approve. If you can get this new
material submitted to the County within 180 days of today's date, we can apply the County's
submittal/review fees and carry on under the same application number (BLA 2008-00021). If
your revisions come in after that date, a new case (With new fees) will be required.
I can be reached at ext. 571 or by e-mail at mmsng,co.mason.wa.us if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
i
