CITY OF EVERETT <br /> Public Works Department <br /> March 19, 2019 <br /> Owner: Wilkinson <br /> Job Address: 1511 Oakes Ave, <br /> Plan Check No: C1810-003 <br /> RE: Building Permit Review Letter <br /> Dear Mr. Vital, <br /> In response to the application for a building permit, the plans have been examined and you are <br /> advised that revisions may be necessary before a permit can be issued. Please review and <br /> respond to the comments below. <br /> All items in the previous correction letter (listed below) are required to be <br /> addressed prior to a building permit being issued. <br /> The structure in its current condition is subject to condemnation if the corrections <br /> listed below are not addressed. <br /> 1. Provide an evaluation of the existing structure, specifically the area of the vaulted <br /> ceiling, prepared by a licensed engineer for wind and seismic loading of the existing <br /> configuration and the gravity calculations from the additional load of the roof trusses in <br /> the proposed addition. <br /> 2. Show how the vaulted ceiling in the existing residence is ventilated, and insulated. <br /> 3. Projections (cantilevers and roof overhang) in the five foot side yard setback are <br /> required to be one-hour fire-resistance rated construction on the under side of the <br /> projection with no openings allowed. Show how the vaulted area of the residence is <br /> provided with one-hour fire-resistance rated construction. This would also include the <br /> overhang in the area of the vaulted ceiling of the existing residence. <br /> 4. Provide detail of fire blocking at concealed spaces of furred walls in the lower level. <br /> 5. Walls located in the five-foot side yard setback are required to be one-hour fire- <br /> resistance rated construction. Finishing the basement in the existing structure triggers <br /> the requirement for one-hour fire-resistance rated construction on the south wall. <br /> 6. Provide minimum 36-inch landing not more than 7-3/4 inches below the finished floor at <br /> all entrance/exits. Show on plans. <br /> 3200 Cedar Street S <br /> 425.257.8976 O jheihnan@everettwa.gov <br /> Everett, WA 98201 425.257.8857 fax everettwa.gov <br />
