Previous site work had been undertaken by GES, Inc. on Sept. 13, 1996 and was reported in our letter dated Sept. 21, 1996. The geologic investigation and reconnaissance of the site and surrounding area were completed during the second visit on Feb. 17, 1997. Madrona Ave. is a relatively short, narrow re.sidential street that loops off of Wiukilteo Blvd. in southwest Everett. Most homes on the northwestern side of the street are bluff top, directly overlooking the Puget Sound. Burlington Northern Railroad (BNRR) tracks run along the base of the bluff- fronting on the Puget Sound shoreline. A Vicinity Map showing the site relative to existing area municipal improvements is included in Appendix A of this report. The project site is located at 1229 Madrona Ave. It is surrounded by single family residences to the north and south, Madrona Ave to the east and the Burlington Northern Railroad/Puget Sound to the west. We understand that the property was purchased by Bdl- Properlies and the site was platted intn two lots. Lot #1 contained the original house on the site and is located to the north. Lot #1 has been sold. Lot #2 is the sideyard along the south side of the original ho��se. Lot #2 is landscaped and slopes down moderately steep to the west from Madrona Ave. A two (2) stury carport is located on the southeast corner of the lot. The lower floor of the carport contains two doors that open into the yard. This area is used for storage. The upper floor of the carport is at the same elevation as the street and contains the car deck area. A concrete retaining wall runs from the carport to the backside of the home on lot #I - parallcl to Madrona Ave. Slopes in the project area are grass covered with a few mediwn sizcd spnice trecs/ bnish along the southem property line and a couple of mature rliodedendrums along the upper part of the site. Slopes appeared stable at the time of the investigation. A small topographic depression located in the northcentral portion of the site, at approximately el. 128., suggests a possible 3 GES, Inc. O
