That inspection verified that the basement was being reconfigured into six sleeping rooms (to include an exis[ing bath room) without building, plumbing or mechanical permits as required by Section 103 of the 1997 Uniform Buitding Code (UBC) as adopted by the Ciry of Everett. Therefore, this letter is to officially notify you to STOP WORK at the stated address pursuant to UBC Section 104?.4. The following items delineate the necessary steps which must be followed in order to avoid further action. The house is no longer being used as a single family dwelling but a congregate residence. As there are 10 or fewer persons, the occupancy classification remains R-3. If this is a licensed care facility (licensed by either [he Washington Department of Health or the Departcnent of Social and Health Services), then a copy of that documentation must be submitted as separate codes apply per UBC Section 313.1. 2. The proposed sleeping rooms and existing bath-oom in the basement must be abated, and the basement must be retumed to it's original condition, or an approved alternate. UBC Sec:ion 310.6.1 requires that a habitable space have a ceiling height of not less than 7 feet, 6 inches. Kitchens, halls, bathrooms and toilet companments may have a ceiling height of not less than 7 feet. Beams (spaced more than 4 feet on center) may have a height of 7 feet above the floor. The height of the basement is approximately 6 feet (unfinished) and can not compfy with this minimum requirement unless the house were either raised, and/or the t7oor lowered. 3. Various beams and tloor joists within the basement supporting the first floor have been modified to facilitate the basement conversion. Calculations and details must be submitted for permit review to justify the new condition of the supporting structure andlor required repairs. Per LBC Section 106.3.�, the calculations are required to be produced and stamped (wet-sealed) by a desi�n professional (architect or eneineer) !icensed by the State of Washineton. � � CITY C�= =VEFE i �•?200 Cadar Street • Everetl. 1NA 982Q1 •(4251 257-8800 • Fax (a25) 25 �-8856
