EV E R E T T February 14,2020 WASHINGTON Laura and Dean Workman 15828 2"a PL W Lynnwood,WA 98087 Site Address: 4202 Terrace Dr Permit Numbers: E1908-074,E2001-148 Dear Ms.And Mr.Workman, It has been discovered that the structure at 4202 Terrace Drive contains two dwelling units.Historical records indicate that the structure has only been approved as a single-family residence since it was moved to this address in 1960.The upper floor(attic)currently has an independent entrance,kitchen, sleeping area,living area and bathroom and is defined as a dwelling unit per the International Residential Code(IRC)Section R202.Additionally,the building may not contain two independent dwelling units per the Everett Zoning Code. To create a second dwelling unit in a single-family residence,construction permits, inspections and approvals are required per IRC Section R105.1.No permits for the additional dwelling unit are found in the records for this property. As the building was altered contrary to law, International Property Maintenance Code Section 108.1.4 defines the structure as Unlawful. In accordance with IRC Section R105.2 the two electrical permits noted above are therefore suspended as they were issued for a single-family residence whereas the building is an unlawful duplex.The permits may be reinstated once proper course of action are determined and approved. Please note that both the Everett Zoning and Residential Codes provide for an attached accessory dwelling unit to be created within an existing single-family residence.There are restrictions and permits required for this process to include the requirement that the primary dwelling unit be owner-occupied. In order to continue forward with the permit process you may contact Terri PERMIT SERVICES Jorgenson at(425)257-8861 to schedule a meeting with representatives from Planning, Building, Public Works and Code Enforcement departments.
