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 Mason County Planning Department 7/22/2004 1 of 3 SP12004-00168 Site Inspection 7/22/2004 Case No.: SP12004-00168 Comments: Site visit made on July 2, 2004; observed a small cabin on the northernmost of the three properties (lots 365, 366, and 367) at the top of the steep slope and located over the property boundary with lot 368. Zoning: The property is located in an area with a Rural Residential 5 zoning designation. Standard building setbacks for this zoning are 20-foot side and rear setbacks and a 25-foot front yard setback. An exception to this standard can be reviewed for lots less than 100 feet in width, in which case the side yard setback is equal to 10% of the lot width. Other setbacks can apply when critical areas are present such as streams, wetlands, steep slopes etc. The lot contains this existing old cabin (roughly 26 ft by 27 ft 6in) located about 40 feet from county road. The site is well vegetated and contains large, mature evergreens. Steep slopes in excess of 70 to 100 % exist on the property, sloping down to the type 3 stream that outlets Haven Lake. Landslide hazard areas: Due to the greater than 70 to 100 % slopes on or adjacent to the site, the development of the property would require that a Geotechnical Report be provided prior to permit issuance in accordance with the enclosed Landslide Hazard Ordinance, section E.S. The more important fact is that all three properties do not have enough area available to construct a residence, well and drainfield without being on the steep slope. A Report will need to address the full extent of site development (proposed site preparation and structures), erosion control, and vegetation and storm water management, as well as stated that the property would remain stable and not cause further landslide hazards. At least 2 copies should be provided to the County. A Landslide Hazard Covenant would need to be completed and recorded with the County Auditor, if it is determined through a Geotechnical Report that proposed construction will occur within a landslide hazard area or it's buffer. Prior to ground disturbing activities, excavation or grading, an acceptable geotechnical report will need to be submitted to the County and a permit issued i.e. building permit or Mason Environmental Permit. A topographic profile will need to be provided when submitting a building permit application. This profile view should show existing and proposed topography with regards to cutting, filling etc. The potential area for expansion of the existing cabin or a new structure will require minimal grading and excavation if a proposal was back from the top of slope. Streams setbacks: Stream buffers and setbacks would be 7/22/2004 2 of 3 SP12004-00168 Site Inspection 7/22/2004 Case No.: SP12004-00168 determined by the Mason County Resource Ordinance Section 17.01.110 Fish & Wildlife Habitat Conservation Areas. The observed type 3 stream flows from Haven Lake towards the Tahuya River through all parcels and immediately next to the existing cabin. Proposed development would again not be feasible on these three parcels due to the 150-foot natural vegetated buffer, plus 15-foot building setback, measured horizontally from the top of the stream bank. General process: If a proposal were feasible, a site plan, showing all setbacks from property lines, slopes and streams will be needed for building permit application submittal. A topographical profile or other topographical information will also be needed, which the project geotechnical engineer or geologist, and you could prepare from this critical area information. County development standards referred to may be obtained from the County website at http://www.co.mason.wa.us. and then look for Community Development. If you have any questions please feel free to call. Thank you. 7/22/2004 3 of 3 SP12004-00168 I MASON COUNTY //��S808M TRi�ASURF�PLANNING DEPT.
