I believe business dumpster enclosure became non- <br /> compliant to building codes, similar to the codes shown below WHEN McD cut down those huge <br /> trees. It was those two trees that blocked my view inside their dumpster enclosure. If you look at <br /> 2009 areal map, you will substantially see the two two trees blocked my view inside their enclosure. <br /> Areal map of 2011 shows the trees missing. <br /> So it is the odd case of removal of landscaping causing a building code violation. And i formally <br /> complained about the landscaping violation starting in 2011, but like you, initially saw it as <br /> landscaping violation only, when it did indeed change the dumpster enclosure compliance <br /> Please proceed with complaint. I believe both the west opening and top opening currently violate <br /> building code. <br /> Thank you, Jean <br /> Applicability. All commercial and multifamily (four units or greater) developments requiring the use of <br /> dumpsters shall provide an enclosure for the screening of garbage containers. ... In no instance shall <br /> garbage containers be visible from a public street, publicly accessible property, <br /> residential zoned property or residentially used property. " <br /> 3-60-040 Enclosure design and.construction requirements......................................................................................................................................................................................... <br /> ......................................................... . . <br /> A. ..."The enclosure shall fully screen solid waste, compostable materials and recyclable materials containers and <br /> materials from public view." <br /> McD enclosure does not meet that code from the top or west side. <br /> On Friday, November 18, 2016 8:42 AM, Meg Haley <MHalevCa)everettwa.qov>wrote: <br /> Hi Jean, <br /> I appreciate your kind words, thank you! <br /> We want to make sure that your information goes to the right person. I am in the building department, and <br /> would only be reviewing commercial building compliance with the building codes. Landscaping would be <br /> something that you want to pass on to Kembra, since she is reviewing the zoning code requirements, which <br /> include landscaping. Whether the zoning code applies or does not apply to your concern is something that <br /> only Kembra or another planner could answer. <br /> I copied her on your e-mail. Kembra, please make whatever attachments to TRAKiT that you normally would <br /> for a landscaping complaint. <br /> Thanks! <br /> Meg � <br /> � <br /> , � � <br /> %�`,/�' <br />
