When I was on site, we briefly discussed that this could be a possibility. At a minimum, this would not allow any openings and would require a fire wall at those encroaching wall sections as I explained during our visit . I have forwarded the approved variance document to the Auditor' s office for recording. Once complete, they will mail you the original . For questions regarding the construction requirements, please contact the Building Official, Dana Herron (360) 427-9670 ext 357 and Fire Marshal, Dave Salzer at extension 273 . If I can assist you any further, please feel free to contact me at extension 356 .

We have attached the forms required for the request. We would also like to provide this summary. Proposed Projects The proposed projects consist of: • an all-purpose family/TV/computer/informal dining room r a detached garage/shop. An existing 35-year old 11'x13' building (whose setback ranges from to 1 feet) will be replaced by the family room at a larger setback. Constructing this room on the second floor in not feasible. This will be a frequently used,high traffic room near the kitchen. A second-floor location would reduce supervision of grandchildren and other young relatives who visit and would eliminate casual and larger-function meals from being served in this entertainment area. The intention is to keep the original, old cedar-paneled living room in its classical condition without the higher tech innovations of the proposed family room. Also, views from our neighbor's second floor residence would be obstructed by our second-floor construction. A second floor addition to such an old house would be cost prohibitive, adding to the hardship. A 1-car garage of minimum dimensions(22'long x 14'wide)with a shop(K long x 14'wide) is also proposed. N Variance The variance: • has been agreed to by the Pearsons, owners of the adjacent property. • is consistent with commonly found set-backs in the community and will not grant a special privilege not enjoyed by at least nine other properties in the immediate community. The variance is needed because: (1) the lot is extremely narrow, (2) the current septic drain field must be avoided when the proposed garage is constructed, (3)a septic reserve area must also be avoided by the proposed family room. (1) Narrow, Tapered Lot. Since Madrona Morningside was platted on a point of Hood Canal,some pie- shaped lots were required. Of the 36 original "50 ft" beachfront lots, four were tapered to 30 ft on the landward side. Ours is one of these. (The other three lots have since been combined with another or reproportioned.) Since our 50 ft. measurement is on the beach and at an angle, the useable shoreline itself is only about 44 feet long. (2) Drain Field. In 1983, a new septic system was installed. It incorporated a holding tank with pump at the house and a septic tank/drainfield as far from the shoreline as possible(160 ft)without encroaching within 100 ft of a community well. The system was ahead of its time and works very well. It was approved in a 1996 inspection by the Lower Hood Canal Clean Water District. (3) Septic Reserve. The only location for a septic reserve is to the south of the current drain field. The good news here is that the soil has a very good draining character. We need keep as much land as possible available for future requirements of the Lower Hood Canal Clean Water District, County and State. Thank you very much for your kind consideration of our proposal.
