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.286 if you have questions. Sincerely, Sco onganecker Land Use Planner Mason County Planning Department 2/12/2004 1 of 3 SP12004-00013 Site Inspection 2/12/2004 Case No.: SP12004-00013 Comments: Pre-inspection for Brent Irwin: The zoning designation for the site is Rural Residential 5. Standard building setbacks for this zoning are a 25-foot front yard setback, and 20-foot side and rear yard setback. These setbacks are measured from structures above grade such as roof overhangs, and other structures or appurtenances, including heat pumps etc. Other setbacks can apply when critical areas are present such as streams, wetlands, steep slopes etc. The subject property is located within of Shoreline Jurisdiction. Cranberry Creek is shoreline jurisdictional per the Mason County Shoreline Master Program and designated as Conservancy. Some activities within 200-feet of Cranberry Creek may trigger the need for review under the Mason County Shoreline Master Program, however construction of a home and accessory structures such as a shop / garage is exempt from these requirements. Some activities such as grading over 250-cubic yards and other development may trigger a shoreline substantial development permit. The purpose of the site visit was to evaluate property prior to purchase and determine critical areas and other development related issues. Currently the 5.32 acre parcel is vacant, contains an access road which crosses an unmapped type 3 stream (tributary of Cranberry Creek). Cranberry Creek (type 1 stream) crosses the NW corner of the property and wraps around the North and East lot lines. Large areas of the North and East sides of the property fall within the 150-foot buffer and 15-foot building setback of Cranberry Creek, as well as the smaller type 3 stream 150-foot buffer and 15-foot building setback. However, based upon several measurements taken along the slope from the ordinary high water mark of the streams (OHWM) there still appears to be some large, level areas for possible future development including a home and accessory structures. The buffers and setbacks mentioned are to be measured horizontally. This can likely be done by scaling them out on the property plot plan, which appears to have been surveyed and fairly accurate in terms of location of the streams. These setbacks can then be field verified by the owner and the Planning Department when Building Permit applications or other development permit applications are submitted for review. There are also some apparent regulated wetlands associated with Cranberry Creek on and near the property within the flood plain of Cranberry Creek. Based upon measurements taken from near the flood plain, it appears that even the maximum 140-foot wetland buffer/ setback could be met, while allowing for future development on the level portion of the property towards the center of the lot. 2/12/2004 2 of 3 SP12004-00013 Site Inspection . 2/12/2004 Case No.: SP12004-00013 Flood plains: Portions of the property are located within the Zone A floodplain of Cranberry Creek, per the enclosed FEMA flood map section 34. However, it is clear the based upon the steep topography that the proposed building sites are not located within the floodplain. The building site is located approximately 20 - 30 feet above the Cranberry Creek floodplain based upon Staffs estimates. Geological hazards: Slopes on and near the proposed building sites, upslope of Cranberry Creek approach 40%. Slopes in the areas are mapped by Mason County as Landslide Hazard areas due to slopes over 15%. Development in these areas is subject to geological / geotechnical review. Future development within 300-feet of slopes over 40% on site will require a Geotechnical Report per section 17.01.100 indicating that hazards of the landslide area can be overcome in such a manner as to prevent harm to property and public health and safety, and must also assure the project will cause no significant environmental impact. Development within 300-feet of slopes 15 - 40% will require a Geological Assessment. During a Geological Assessment it can be determined by the project engineer or geologist whether the site meets the technical requirements for requiring a Geotechnical Report based upon the requirements of Mason County Resource Ordinance, section 17.01.100 (enclosed). Permit required uses: It appears that utilities, including electricity etc. will need to be brought into the site and they will likely have to cross the unmapped type 3 stream on site. If this is the case a Mason Environmental Permit will be needed (see section 17.01.110 G.2.c., however a Habitat Management Plan will most likely not be required per this section in order to bring in utilities across the stream. If necessary it is also possible to encroach on the stream buffer for the purpose of installing other utilities including septic systems and wells with a Mason Environmental Permit. You may want to contact the Planning Department prior to application submittal to discuss project specific requirements. The planner for your area currently is Diane Marcus-Jones (360) 427-9670 ext. 363. Permit applications are available from the Mason County Permit Assistance Center in County building number 3. Some forms are also available from the County website. No other critical areas were identified. 2/12/2004 3 of 3 SP12004-00013 MASON COUNTY 0C)01� PLANNING DEPT.
