I met with Bill Belshaw,the owner, last week at the site. Both of us had received independent calls regarding the work on the building enclosure. One of the phone calls was from the public and one was from Bill's own independent inspector. Bill is very agreeable about getting what needs to get done underway, but ha.:to make a choice about how he wants to proceed with additional documentation required for the building permit. Typically,we would collect this information before the permit is issued, but in this case,we are taking care of it after the permit was issued. Going forward,we will make some changes t�our building enclosure worksheet so that this situation is unlikely to happen again.

After researching the file, it is incomplete. The worksheet was not certified by the person applying for building permit. RCW 64.55.020(1�: "...If construction work on a building enclosure is nol rehabilitative construction because the cost thereof is nol more than five percent of ihe assessed value of the building,then the person applying for a building pertnit shall submit to the building department a letter so certifying" In order to proceed with work under the building permit issued on 10/5/2009, more documentation is required to be collected by the building department. Please let me know which one of these three options you would like to complete. 1. 7he valuation of work being done to the building enclosure (see below for definition of building enclosure) should be filled out and signed by the owner of the building,or the owner's authorized agent. If that is how you would like to proceed, it is best to come into our offices so we can update the permit file with a signed worksheet, in lieu of the letter certification required by RCW 64.55. Please let me know, so that I can make the appropriate changes to the worksheet to facilitate this certification. a. It is important to note that the valuation of the work being done to the building enclosure would include any work being done to the enclosure, reRardless of whether our iurisdiction or the buildinQ code requires a permit for that work. �. If the valuation of the work exceeds 59'0 of the Snohomish County assessed value of the building,it is defined as rehabilitative construction,and an architect, licensed by the State of Washington, is required to submit drewings for building permit of the details of the work being done to the building enclosure. a. Additionally,the architect is requireJ to sign a written certification on the building enclosure drawings that states they comply with the requirements of RCW 64.55,to the best of their professional judgment, 1 I1I` 1
