1.0 INTRODUCTION/GENERAL INFORMATION <br />The proposed Home Base project is located in the south half of the southeast quarter of the southeast <br />quarter of Section 18, Township 28 North, Range 5 East, Willamette Meridian, City of Everett, <br />Snohomish County, Washington. The site is bounded by Interstate 5 to the west, 100th Street S.F. to <br />the south, 19th Avenue S.E. to the east, and a commercial zoned site containing a public skating rink <br />to the north. <br />Site developtm nt will consist of construction of a 110,000-square foot Home Base, a 3,400-square foot <br />restaurant, and related parking, utilities, and storm drainage improvements. A significant amount of <br />fill will need to be imported to bring the western half of the site to grade for the proposed Home Base <br />building. This fill will include the filling of an on -site wetland area, approximately 42,800 square feet <br />in size. The project also includes complete street improvements for 100th Street S.E. west of 19th <br />Avenue S.E. <br />In general, the proposed storm drainage/detention and water quality treatment system for this project <br />will consist of three independent elements. An existing off -site detention pond for the Family Tree <br />apartment complex located south of the project will be reconstructed to improve its water quality <br />treatment benefits and detention volume. Also, a new wet/detention pond will be constructed on the <br />Home Base site to provide water quality and detention for site development. Each pond will also <br />function as dead and live storage compensation for the removal of the existing wetland. In addition to <br />these ponds, an on -site detention tank will be constructed exclusively for roof drainage detention. <br />The basic pu=se of this narrative and the following calculations and exhibits is to demonstrate how <br />the gmilamd combination of detention and water quality imnrovements will achieve the following three <br />EQuirements: <br />1. Replacing water quality features and storage volumes currently being provided by the <br />existing wetland. <br />2. Improving all off -site detention and water quality features provided by the existing off - <br />site pond to be reconstructed. <br />3. Meeting or exceeding City of Everett Woods Creek Basin requirements for on -site <br />detention and water quality treatment. <br />' hese items are discussed in extensive detail in Sections 5 and 6 of this report. <br />2.0 EXISTING SITE CONDITIONS <br />The 9.8-acre Home Base site is currently undeveloped and contains no defined drainage courses except <br />for the undefined channel which contains standing water within the wetlands. The east half of the site <br />is relatively flat, generally sloping east to west, at 1 to 5 percent. Approximately half of this area is <br />open space and half is wooded with brush and small trees. <br />The existing wetland bisects the west half of the site, which consists of heavy brush and trees. The <br />existing slopes east and west of the wetland are relatively steep, with grades up to 2H:1V. The existing <br />wetland appears to have standing water of varying depths of approximately 0 to 30 inches, with some <br />scattered deeper pockets. <br />5947.001 [KL/jssftl <br />
