Your application has been received and a permit set up. However, the submitted documents are not sufficiently developed for us to perform a comprehensive review at this time. Construction-level documents should be submitted for review. Two complete sets of the revised drawings should be submitted to replace the previously submitted drawing sets. Preliminary comments are provided below to assist in preparing the drawings, but these are not intended to provide a comprehensive review. The resubmittal documents should include an itemized response letter clarifying how the review comments below have been addressed. Review Comments: 1. The submitted documents include schematic-level drawings of the house with itemized narrative for the proposed work only, which is not sufficient to issue a building permit. Construction-level drawings are required. The drawings should include sufficient information to clearly show the proposed work, including but not limited to plans, building sections, details, material requirements, general notes, etc. 2. Continuing with the previous comment,the submit documents include multiple copies of the original construction drawings, some with illegible mark-ups. Other copies appear to be provided as a record of the existing condition. This does not meet the City of Everett requirements for drawing submittals. Clear construction drawings should be prepared by the applicant for the proposed project. Any existing information that is pertinent to the proposed work must be determined by the designer and clearly shown. For the proposed scope of work, recycling of the original drawings is not appropriate. Note that the submitted drawings are of poor quality and not suitable for this purpose. Project-specific construction drawings that clearly delineate between the existing and new work, and provide sufficient information to construct that work, are required. 3. The construction drawings should specify the governing building codes for the project, including but not limited to the 2018 IRC, 2018 IBC, and 2018 WSEC. See EMC Section 16.005.030. 4. We received an email from a Mr. Dennis Jordan indicating additional scope that does not appear to be represented in the submitted documents, including but not limited to reconstruction of exterior egress stairs. All proposed work should be included in the drawings. Stair work should include details for the stair construction including width, rise, and run, guard and handrails details, and a top and bottom landing. The guards and handrails should comply with the load requirements of Table R301.5. 5. Continuing with he previous comment,the email appears to indicate that work to reconstruct the stairs is currently being performed without a valid permit. Work should discontinue immediately. Code enforcement action will occur if the work continues without a permit. 6. The building appears to include structural modifications. Structural framing plans and details are required. The drawings should comply with the prescriptive imitations of the IRC. Alternatively, an engineered analysis and design should be performed per Section R301.1.3; sealed and signed drawings
