Project Description: DETERMINE BUILDING LOCATIONS AND REQUIREMENT
FOR HOUSE AND SHOP
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 Carl Ehresman on Mar. 4, 2010:
The purpose of the pre-inspection was to evaluate issues related
to new construction or addition to a single family residence on a
3.75 acre parcel along the north side of the Union River and west
of Old Belfair Highway. The parcel has slopes of less than 5
percent throughout the property, has a maintained lawn area to
the county road, and has groups of trees throughout the property.
The existing residence is in the north center of the parcel. The
low elevation lot is associated with the Union River to the east; the
lot depth is to the east to west; the area of the property potentially
affected by the Union River is to the southeast. The applicant
wants to know what development standards to follow or studies to
include in proposing new outbuilding construction. These findings
state regulations in effect at the time of inspection, unless noted
otherwise.
Development Regulations standards.
The site is in Rural Residential 20 zone. Standard building
setbacks are 25-foot front yard setback, and 20-foot side property
line setbacks. These setbacks are measured from structures
above grade such as roof overhangs, stairs, balconies, decks,
heat pumps, storage buildings, and fuel tanks.
An administrative variance may be requested to reduce
these setback distances from property lines, to as low as 10 feet
(front 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_ Slope or Landslide hazards: Generally there are no steep
slopes that exceed 15 percent. The applicant does not need a
geologic study as part of development review.
Wetland critical area: Planning staff confirmed that the
parcel does not contain certain wetlands, which are regulated
under Mason County's Wetlands chapter 17.01.070 of the Mason
County Resource Ordinance. The applicant will not need a
wetlands special report during development review.
Y Shoreline setbacks: The shoreline designation for the Union

River would be Rural Environment per the Mason County
Shoreline Master Program and setbacks would be determined by
the Mason County Resource Ordinance. The proposed
development within 200 feet of the stream would be more affected
by the Resource Ordinance standards than the setback standards
of the Shoreline Master Program.
_Y_ Stream setbacks: The observed Type S stream is a
perennial water of fish bearing capability and falls under the
jurisdiction of the Fish and Wildlife Habitat Conservation Areas
Chapter (17.01.110) of the Mason County Resource Ordinance.
The setbacks from Union River would be determined by the
Mason County Resource Ordinance. The stream setback for a
type S stream is composed of a 150-foot vegetation buffer plus a
15-foot building setback closest to the roof projection of a
proposed structure, for a total of 165 feet from the channel
migration zone (CMZ). Any portion of the new structure, including
decks, balconies, and rooflines, must be behind this setback line.
The 15 feet toward the stream is an area that may be used for
lawns, patios or landscaping (development at grade level). From
that point toward the stream is considered to be a required
vegetated buffer and is regulated by the Mason County Resource
Ordinance Fish and Wildlife Habitat Conservation Areas Chapter.
New residential development is not permitted within Fish and
Wildlife Habitat Conservation areas or its buffers, except for as
approved through a variance or reasonable use exception review
process, but some activities can be done both with and without a
Mason Environmental Permit.
The applicant has proposed a garage or an outbuilding more that
400 feet from the Union River. The existing residence is 300 feet
from the high water line of the creek and close to 25 feet from the
north property line. An addition or outbuilding proposed in the
vicinity of the existing residence will not be affected by the stream
development standards.
_Y_ Floodplain area: The property (except for about 90 to 100
feet from the southeast corner) lie completely outside of the
floodplain area of the Union River, as shown on the enclosed
copy of the aerial image of the nearby vicinity. Since mid-1991,
development within the floodplain is guided by the County's Flood
Damage Prevention Ordinance. A building site that is in the
floodplain on this parcel would have to be sited to be two feet
above the surrounding grade of the property and have provisions
in the foundation to permit flood flows to pass through if needed.
These aspects would be added as conditions to a proposed

building permit.
You would need to confirm with the Health Department what their
septic system standards are to make sure about the adequacy of
supplying a septic system and drainfield area(s). The Building
Department can help you with building code standards in
replacing or upgrade existing structures.
General process: Future site development must include a site
plan, showing all setbacks from property lines, stream alignment,
and existing and proposed improvements; this site plan will be
needed for variance request and building permit application
review.
Specific County Code standards for future development may be
found at the County website address hftp://www.co.mason.wa.us.
If you have any questions please feel free to call. Thank you.
