Project Description: Feasibility to build new home next to cabin.
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,
A &�Vz�

Comments:
Pre-inspection for Timothy Reiterman on July 10, 2007:
The purpose of the pre-inspection was to evaluate issues related
to the construction of a single-family residence next to a small
cabin on a 0.48 acre parcel, lot 36 in Mason Lake Estates. The
property is 60 feet wide and 400 feet deep from road to shoreline,
has primarily native plant cover (except near the shoreline and
garage area), and has slopes of 5 to 10 percent throughout. The
proposed residence would be located to the west of the 20-ft.
wide by 24-ft. deep cabin and the inspection is to verify proper
setbacks. A septic system will be located in the center of the lot
closer to the road. These findings state regulations in effect at
inspection time, unless noted otherwise.
Development Regulations standards:
_Y_ 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 6 ft. side yard setback.
_Y_ An administrative variance may be requested to reduce
these setback distances from property lines, to as low as 5 feet
(side yard) or 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: Slopes less than 10 percent
adjacent to or within 300 feet of a proposed project were
observed. No geologic special report (geologic assessment or
geotechnical report) is needed during development review.
_N_ 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.

_N_ Stream setbacks: No seasonal or perennial drainage flows
through the subject property. The proposed development is
greater than 200 feet from the any stream management area
covered by the standards of this critical area.
_Y_ Shoreline setbacks: The shoreline designation for the area
is Urban Environment per the Mason County Shoreline Master
Program and setbacks would be determined by the Mason County
Resource Ordinance. In this portion of Mason Lake, the
shoreline setback is typically determined by drawing a line
between the roofline of adjacent neighboring residences across
the subject property, measuring the roof projection closest to the
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 measured the common line setback from the ordinary high
water mark (OHWM) of the Mason Lake shoreline to a shoreward
roof eave of a proposed residence. The proposed home would be
behind the view common line of the present residence to the
northwest (lot 35), across the subject parcel, to the east corner of
the residence a parcel to the east southeast (lot 37). Staff
measured this common line crosses the subject parcel in front of
the cabin at 41 .5 feet from the OHWM on the west side of the
cabin and at 46 feet from the OHWM on the east side of the
cabin. When the applicant proposes the new home, all portions of
the new development must be behind these shoreline setback
distances and no portion shall be less than 35 feet from the lake
OHWM as the common line crosses the property in the west area;
the proposed house footprint shall provide room for decks or
stairs if they are proposed above grade. Note that these setbacks
are composed of a 26- to 31-foot vegetation buffer along Mason
Lake and 15-foot building setback immediately in front of
proposed structures, and that activities in the buffer are regulated
by the Resource Ordinance.
Concerning the existing cabin: the width is 20 feet and the depth
is 24 feet; this encloses an area of 480 sq. ft. You must choose

one of two actions prior to occupying a new home: 1) demolish
the cabin; or 2) apply to have the cabin as an approved accessory
dwelling unit. Mason County Development Regulations Sec.
1 .03.029 set forth the review standards of a proposed accessory
dwelling unit. Please note that accessory dwelling units proposed
are subject to a special use permit public review process
(requirement A), an existing detached structure may be used for
this purpose (requirement C), and the size of the accessory
dwelling unit structure is limited to 1000 sq. ft. (requirement D).
You will need to request the Special Use Permit and provide
written responses to the questions that accompany your
application. The application materials are available in person at
the Mason County Permit Assistance Center, 5th and Cedar St. in
Shelton or by phone at 427-9670 ext. 281 .
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) for the proposed
development.
General process: Future site development must include a site
plan, showing all setbacks from property lines, shoreline, roads,
and existing and proposed improvements; this site plan will be
needed for building permit application submittal and permit
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.
