P!!BL/C N/O/�X5 <br /> July 2, 1997 <br /> Mr. Philip Rifner <br /> 5431 Broadway <br /> Everett, WA 98203 <br /> Subject: Driveway 5431 Broadway <br /> Dear Phil: <br /> The public �vorks ir.spector has voiced concems about the construction integrity and safety of <br /> the driveway. I visited the site and concurred with his observations. It appeats that the block <br /> walls are already shifting with only the dead load of the material placed between them. The <br /> material is not compacted and when walked on breaks loose. The vehicle site distance onto <br /> Broadway is poor and compounded by the slope of the driveway. <br /> The city inspector discussed this problem with the contractor prior t� construction. The <br /> driveway needs to be reconstructed. The driveway needs to be designed with strucwral walls <br /> capable of retaining the fill. The slope from the existing pavement should be 2%a for a <br /> distance of 25 feet and then s[ope to Lot 2 at a maximum of 15% slope. <br /> The City of E��erett is now in the predesign stage of developing Broadway inro a 5-lane street <br /> with curb, gutter and sidewalks which will ultimately u[ilize about 75 fezt of the IW foot <br /> righFof-way. <br /> If you have any questions, please call me at 257-8977. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Alan E. Locke <br /> Engineering/Public Services ' � __ <br /> ��� � _ '�� <br /> �_. - <br /> e�:iwra�n i =; <br /> I \� r• . <br /> i , , <br /> CITY OF EVERE'fT• 3200 Cedar Street • Evere1L WA 98201 • (425) 257-8800• Fax(425) 257-8856 <br /> 1 _ _ <br />
