Mr. Allan Giffen 3 April 3, 2006 Page 2 Mr. Allan Giffen City of Everett Planning and Community Development 2930 Wetmore Avenue, Suite 8A Everett,WA 98201 April 3, 2006 Dear Mr. Giffen This letter addresses questions about exterior materials for the Rockefeller Avenue condominium project located at 2611 —2619 Rockefeller Avenue. The wording in this letter is intended for incorporation into a revised developers agreement between Rockefeller Avenue LLC and the City of Everett. • The exterior building sheathing will be horizontal lap siding prevalent in the neighborhood. The siding will be made of a painted wood or cementations product (not vinyl). • The balcony railings will be made of metal (not vinyl). • The windows will be quality operable windows with painted trim. • The front planters, ADA ramp, front steps, and garage walls will be exposed concrete which may be painted, stained, or left grey as best fits the aesthetic design of the project at the specific location. • The roofing material is to be a dark charcoal colored 40-year composition shingle roof. This roofing material will also be used at the side roofs over the covered parking. • The grillwork on the sides of the covered parking will be metallic and will be intended to blend with the landscape buffer blocking it from view. • The building's north elevation will be symmetrical with the south elevation. With regards to maintenance of the north and south sides of the building structure, contractors will use practices and equipment common to their trades. Access to the exterior walls will be by way of ladders, high-lift equipment, scaffolds (including tower scaffolds), and drops on boson's chairs. 19
