In response to the application submitted, the plans have been examined and you are advised that additional corrections are required. Please submit two sets of drawings with a response letter indicating how corrections are resolved on the plan set. General 1. Per the October 9, 2014 letter from the City of Everett, the use of the structure is recognized as a duplex. a. Although the use is recognized as a duplex, the construction would have been required to meet applicable building codes at the time of the conversion from a mixed use commercial structure to a duplex, per IPMC section 702.4. i. In 1974, the first floor had a certificate of occupancy as retail, according to City of Everett records. This is also supported by phone records from the Polk directory. ii. In 1975, a single unit apartment was recognized by Snohomish County Assessor's Office. iii. In 1980, the structure was recognized by Snohomish County Assessor's office as a duplex, which is supported by the Polk directory. At that time, the applicable building code for adding a residential unit to the building was the 1979 Uniform Building Code (UBC), which required egress windows, per section 1204, attached. b. If possible, for clarity, please number the bedrooms from the main entry, which for both units is northeast corner. 2. Previous comment. Sheet 1 of 4 on the structural drawings should be updated to indicate that there are two apartment units, instead of a main floor and loft. 31f
