Woodspring Suites Tukwila <br />Response to Review Comments <br />CPH No. 0 i 28-75-002 <br />December 23, 2015 <br />Page 2 of 14 <br />Response: The building foundation is a minimum of 15 feet outside of the wetland buffer edge. The <br />preload design will be completed with the final building foundation design, and therefore the limit is not <br />yet known. However, it is confirmed that any preload edge will not extend outside of the 15 -foot <br />setback area and will no encroach into the wetland buffer. Additionally, the preload will be a <br />temporary fill condition that will be removed and replace with permanent improvements and mitigation <br />measures. As such, all impacts are considered. <br />2. Retaining walls are referenced on page 7. Please include the location and height of all retaining <br />walls included in the project, if there will be retaining walls other than those associated with the <br />storm water detention vault. <br />Response: There are no retaining walls for the proposed development. The structural calculations for <br />the storm water detention vault will be provided with final engineering. <br />TIR Report <br />Why is an HPA permit required? What work will require review by the Corps, as indicated by <br />checked box? (p. 5) <br />Response: No HPA permit is required. This was incorrectly reported in the Technical Information Report <br />(TIR) provided with the initial submittal. The TIR worksheet in the enclosed, updated TIR correctly notes <br />that no HPA is required. <br />Topographic Survey <br />+ Verify parcel corners in the northwestern corner of the project site; there is a discrepancy between <br />survey submitted with application materials and the Assessor's Map. I don't see a bearing or <br />monument to show how the property lines extend all the way out to the northwestern corner as <br />shown. Rectify this discrepancy, if needed, and revise all application materials to show the correct <br />lot boundaries. <br />Response: An updated topographic survey with the corrected boundary is included with this <br />resubmittal package. <br />Special Permission (1.15- 0049): <br />Parks and Recreation Department <br />1. I did not see a plan for the thin sliver of land heading south along the Green River that is part <br />of the proposed development parcel. Is there a plan for this? <br />Response: There is no development planned within the referenced portion of the property as part <br />of this project. <br />Planning Division <br />1. State whether any outside sources of fill will be used and if so provide documentation to <br />demonstrate that the fill comes from a clean source per TMC 18.44.070(1)(8). <br />Response: Site development will require the import of structural fill material based on preliminary <br />design estimations. This fill will come from a commercial source or, potentially, another nearby <br />development site. The specific source of fill is not known at this time, but it is understood that <br />documentation will be necessary to confirm that any material imported to the site is from a clean <br />source prior to placement. This specification will also be provided on the civil /site engineering plans <br />that will be reviewed and approved with the City's construction permit process. <br />2. See River Buffer Vegetation Planting Densities Table (TMC 18.44.080) for shrub and tree spacing <br />requirements in the shoreline and adjust proposed mitigation plantings accordingly. <br />Response: The landscape plans have been revised to reference, and conform with, the applicable <br />criteria of TMC 18.44.080. <br />35 <br />
