�� 5. The proposalmrf�yates the impacts on the environment911y sensitivs arses to ths maximum sxtent possib/e. Staff has conditioned the project so that the yard extension requested under this reasonable use is limited to the top of slope which minimizes sediment impacts to the downslope wetland and stream areas. The reduced house setback will not result in any increased geologic hazards based on the findings ot the geotechnical report and has therefore been mitigated to the maximum extentpo ssible. Additionally, recommendations have been provided for the proposed development which should minimize any other potential environmental impacts. These recommendations as detailed in the report prepared by Geotechnical and Environmental Services dated November 24, 1995, are beinq required as conditions of approval for the proposed residence. However, the placement of fill on the steep slope area in order to provide the extended 50 foot yard area east of the residence exceeds the provisions for reasonable use of the property based on surrounding uses and also creates impacts to the slope and wetland that are unmitigatable and therefore will not be permitted. I I N: The constn�ction of the proposed residence adjacent to the steep slope area on ! e eastem portion of the subject property is permitted subject to the conditions listed below. However, the placement of fill material on the slope area for the extended 50 foot yard area is not permitted. � Fill up to the top of slope as flagged by City Staff on October 6, 1995 for creation of a backyard area and placement of the house as staked in the field, ranging from 15 feet for the southeast comer and 28 teet for the northeast comer from the top of slope, shall be permitted. Prior to initiating or issuance of any clearing, grading or building pertnits, the flagged top of bank and house location must be revisded by the Applicant and City Staff. 3. Strict compliance with all recommendations as stated geological repoR by Geotechnical & Environmental Services, Everett, WA 98206, dated November 24, 1995, is required. in the geotechnical and Inc. (GES), PO Box 1031, 4. A letter from Geotechnical & Environmental Services, Inc stating that the plans submitted for building pertnits complies with all conditions and recommendations stated in their geotechnical and geological report dated November 24, 1995, must be provided prior to issuance of building permits. 5. A landscaping plan showing approximate planting locations, rypes and size of plantings to be used for slope stabiliry and revegetation of all other disturbed areas as a result of construction must be approved by the Planning Department prior to issuance of building permits. The applicant or an owner of property located within 300 feet of the subject property may appeal the Planning Director's determination as to whether to allow the proposed sde improvements.
