ti <br /> TO: Larry Crawford R I O I DFROM: Gar - Plannin j�Y g � Y JUN 19 1990 <br /> DATE: June 19 , 1990 CITY OF EVERETT <br /> SUBJECT: Clearing Permits Public Works Dept. <br /> It has come to our attention that Public Works may be issuing <br /> Permits to allow clearing on property which has not received <br /> necessary land use reviews. We have received citizen calls on <br /> two such situations in Powdermill Gulch and Narbeck Creek. With <br /> the sensitivity of these areas we may expect more such calls. If <br /> I am wrong about these situations, please accept my apologies. <br /> Section 37 of the Zoning Code regulates development on lands <br /> which have environmentally sensitive features, including required <br /> buffers. Specifically, Section 37.160.D.1. , attached, directs <br /> that permits for clearing, grading or filling not be issued <br /> unless and until the land clearing or modification is part of an <br /> approved development activity on the site. <br /> Since so many of the sites in the city are environmentally <br /> sensitive it would be best to have clearing permits not <br /> associated with approved projects reviewed by Planning Staff <br /> before issuance to determine if they contain environmentally <br /> sensitive features. I am going to suggest to Bob, when he <br /> returns, that you and he meet to discuss this issue. <br /> THANKS <br />
