• • Mr. Michael McCulley Plan Check Number: BW2009-001, First Building Review January 13, 2020 General 1. This comment is provided for information only and does not require a response. Based on a review of the City of Everett and Snohomish County records, the porch was not added with a permit. In addition, the proposed project involves enclosing the porch to create new interior space. This is therefore an addition to the house and is required to comply with all requirements for new construction. The comments provided below are based on these conditions. See Sections R102.7.1(WAC) and R105.3.1. 2. This comment is provided for information only and does not require a response. Based on a review of the submitted drawings, the building appears to include additional unpermitted work, including but not limited to the modification of the bearing wall line directly below and supporting the roof ridge and supported framing. Unpermitted modifications are not legal without with a valid permit. All conditions incorrectly identified or depicted as existing are not validated by approval of this permit for the proposed work shown. It is the owner's responsibility to obtain valid permits to address all unpermitted conditions. See Sections R105.1, R105.4, R105.8, and R105.9. 3. The site plan shows the primary house with a detached shared garage and a detached shed at the rear of the property. However, photography of the property shows that the backyard is mostly filled with unidentified structures that may or may not be attached to the house. There also appear to be additional roof additions projecting from the rear of the house. All structures, attached or detached, should be shown in the site plan. All work that is attached to the house must be included in the building plans as new construction unless documentation is provided that substantiates it as permitted construction. Alternatively, unpermitted work should be identified for demolition. See Section R105.1. 4. The proposed project appears intended to comply with the requirements of the 2015 International Residential Code (IRC). The code should be listed in the"Applicable Building Codes"on Sheet"0". See the Everett Municipal Code Section 16.005.030 Article B and IRC Section R106.1.1. Architectural 1. The bedroom is required to have an emergency egress window per Section R310.2. The proposed window replacement does not appear to satisfy these requirements and should be revised. The minimum egress requirements should be stated in the drawings. 2. Crawl spaces under buildings should be provided with ventilation per IRC Section R408.1 (WAC). Access hatches should be provided complying with IRC Section 408.4. The grade should comply with IRC Section R408.6. 3. Roof ventilation should be specified complying with IRC Section R806. The following comments should be addressed: a. The minimum required ventilation area should be stated in the plans. The area should be distributed between the building eaves and ridge. b. Roof vents should be specified along the ridge. 4 3200 Cedar Street 425.257.8810 0 everetteps@everettwa.gov Everett,WA 98201 425.257.8857 fax everettwa.gov/permits Page 2 of 4
