A field inspection of the subject property was conducted on 5/2/2003. Based on the field review, the Habitat management plan and site plan submitted does not accurately reflect the stream location on the subject property and the setback measurements. We understand a field inspection by the contractor and staff is scheduled; which may result in a revised site plan for the property. This is to inform you, that, in addition to a revised site plan, the following requirements are necessitated, for continued review of the Resource Ordinance Variance: 1. A satisfactory map as described in the Fish and Wildlife Habitat Conservation Areas chapter of the Mason County Resource Ordinance No. 77-93. A copy of the chapter is enclosed. The map should include the correct setback measurements, stream location and alignment, property corners, lot lines, proposed building location and size of proposed building. 2. A location of listed species and their critical habitat. 3. A discussion and/or analysis of the initial activity and subsequent mitigation on fish and wildlife in the vicinity of the project site. A copy of the HMP was submitted to Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife and the Squaxin Tribe for comments. A 28-day review period is provided for these organizations. If as anticipated, the site plan and HMP are revised, the comment period will be extended to allow sufficient time for these organizations to review the revised plans. If you have questions or require clarification of this determination, please contact me. 5/8/2003 2 of 3 VAR2003-00014 ON_sraTF MASON COUNTY BPS M c 1k.

Sincerely, Diane M-Jones Land Use Planner Mason County Planning Department 9/25/2003 1 of 3 VAR2003-00014 REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION 9/25/2003 Case No.: VAR2003-00014 Comments: Based on our discussion regarding the Preston's revised proposal, (variance request-VAR 2003-00014), the following comments resulted: It is staffs understanding after meeting with Jack Frost Construction (9-11-03) the proposed site plan has been modified. The revisions were partially based on the comments received per the variance review process by the County planning staff and the Squaxin Tribe biologist. The previously proposed project provided for locating a manufactured home within 50' of the Ordinary High Water Mark of Cranberry Creek. The revised project currently consists of remodeling the existing garage and adding an additional 30 feet to the existing structure along the east facing wall; in order to establish a residence and disregarding placement of a manufactured home on the property. A site visit was conducted based on the revised proposal on 9-15-03. Measurements were taken from the Ordinary High Water Mark of Cranberry Creek to the existing garage and an additional 30 feet beyond. The existing structure's west facing wall (closest to Cranberry Creek) measures 11 5' from the OHWM of the creek. The existing structure's east facing wall measures approximately 145' from the OHWM of the creek. 30 additional feet to the east would create a measurement of 175 feet from the OHWM to Cranberry Creek. As described in previous letters, Cranberry Creek runs along the westerly boundary line of the subject property. Exactly where it bisects the property is unknown. Per the Mason County Resource Ordinance Fish and Wildlife Chapter, Cranberry Creek, a Type 1 stream requires a 150 foot vegetative buffer and 15' building setback, for a total of 165' setback. A primary focus of the site inspection was to assess if the parcel contained any lands unencumbered by the stream buffers and other development regulation setbacks. Based upon the field review, few areas exist on the subject property. Remodeling the existing structure, and as the revisions propose, moving farther east, away from the stream would still require, as was the case in the first proposal, a Resource Ordinance Variance. Placement of a structure or expansion* (See next paragraph) of an existing structure within a type I stream buffer requires the aforementioned variance and a Habitat Management Plan to support that variance. The variance requires any development proposal to show it is the minimum necessary to afford relief. The HMP addresses impacts to the buffer and offers measures to preserve and protect the buffer or mitigate impacts. These revisions to the site plan acknowledge the recommendations submitted by staff and the Tribe. Application and review of a variance does not guarantee approval. 9/25/2003 2 of 3 VAR2003-00014 .r REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION 9/25/2003 Case No.: VAR2003-00014 *It is permissible however to replace the existing garage within its footprint (total replacement), in accordance with the Mason County Resource Ordinance (17.01.110 Section f), as stated, " The remodel, repair or change of use of an existing building within its existing footprint, plus or minus ten percent and provided that such an expansion does not increase any intrusion into the aquatic management area or buffer." It is also permissible, as long as the structure is maintained in its existing footprint, to add height, up to a maximum of 35'. To continue review of the project the following information is required: 1. A revised site plan reflecting stream location, buffer standards and all setbacks. 2. A supplemental or new Habitat Management Plan based upon entire subject property relative to stream buffer and proposed project. Enclosed is a checklist of requirements of a Habitat Management Plan. 3. A completed revised variance application. The variance case number will remain the same, Variance 2003-00014. Fees for the variance, Hearings Examiner and Habitat Management Plan were paid in April 2003. Revisions to the application may incur some minor additional fees such as a revised site plan review fee however the application fee, Habitat Management review fee and Hearings Examiner fee still apply. l 9/25/2003 3 of 3 VAR2003-00014 TO: Diane Marcus Jones FROM: Michelle Stevie RE: Preston Property Review DATE: May 20, 2003 Diane, As a follow up to our field visit may 12, 2003, I would like to reiterate our position for the variance for the Preston property. Cranberry Creek is a highly productive salmon stream that currently experiences high water temperatures partially due to the alteration and disturbance of canopy cover. The Tribe is not in favor of allowing variances to the buffer width on this stream. The current existing buffer is approximately 65 feet from the OHWM of the stream and shows signs of instability along the high bank adjacent to the proposed house site. The landowners' proposal to place a mobile home on the top of this bank has a high potential to accelerate soil movement causing ongoing erosion problems,which would continuously undermine the foundation of the house site. The landowner also wishes to build a deck onto the front of the house,which would farther impact the buffer site and may also contribute toward the banks instability. Fortunately the landowner also owns the adjacent parcel, and between the two parcels there are several options for an alternate building site,which will not impact the existing buffer and the unstable slopes. To help reduce the risk of accelerating bank erosion above the break in slope, I would recommend that all storm water be routed away from this area and eliminate excessive lawn watering. Thanks for taking the time for this field review, it was a pleasure to meet you. If you have any questions please call me at 432-3812.
