The scope of our work consisted of exploring site surface and subsurface <br /> conditions, and then developing this report to provide recommendations for erosion control and <br /> general earthwork, in addition to design criteria for foundations and retaining walls. This work was <br /> authorized by your acceptance of our proposal P-7862, dated September 30, 2009. <br /> From the provided site plans, and discussions with George Hanson, your architect, we understand <br /> ' that a restaurant building will be constructed in the center of the site. This structure will have a <br /> finish floor elevation that may be a few feet above the existing parking lot. Paved parking and <br /> landscape beds will cover the remainder of the property. A retaining wall is planned along the north <br /> side of the site where the ground will be excavated lower for parking. <br /> • <br /> ' If the project scope of the changes from what we have described above, we should be provided <br /> ---- with revised plans in order to determine if modifications to the recommendations and conclusions of <br /> this report are warranted. <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • SITE CONDITIONS <br /> SURFACE CONDITIONS <br /> ' The Vicinity Map, Plate 1, illustrates the general location of the site. The subject property is an <br /> irregularly shaped lot situated immediately east of the existing Top Foods grocery store located at <br /> 1605 Southeast Everett Mall Way. The majority of this lot is currently covered by asphalt paving for <br /> vehicle parking. Grass and landscape planter strips are located along the south, east and north <br /> sides of the asphalt pavement. The majority of the lot is relatively flat, with the southern and <br /> eastern landscape areas being a few feet higher in elevation than the asphalt pavement. Along the • <br /> ' north side of the site the ground slopes up from the asphalt to the northern property line. The total <br /> elevation change across this landscaped slope area is only 4 to 5 feet on the eastern side of the <br /> site, increasing to 8 to 9 feet on the western side of the lot. This slope is not steep, and appears to <br /> ' have been created by excavation when the site was previously developed and the parking lot was • <br /> created. <br />
