RE: Permit # EL 18 -
To Whom It May Concern,
I would like to request an extension on the permit listed above for an additional 180 days. The process
of replacing the electric system in the house has taken longer than expected. This is due in part to
discovering other issues that had to be addressed in the home which slowed me down as well as to
conflicts that have arisen in my personal life.
I am almost done finishing the upstairs unit and will be calling for an inspection of it in the next two to
three weeks. As I am living in the downstairs unit, I have not started, in any significant way, the upgrade
of that electrical system.
Thank you in advance for your consideration in the matter.

PERMIT NO: Z:::::Z--1 / // ')`
1. I have made application for a permit from the City of Tukwila, Washington.
2. I understand that state law requires that all building construction contractors be registered with the
State of Washington. The exceptions to this requirement are stated under Section 18.27.090 of the
Revised Code of Washington, a copy of which is printed on the reverse side of this Affidavit. I have
read or am familiar with RCW 18.27.090.
3. I understand that prior to issuance of a permit for work which is to be done by any contractor, the
City of Tukwila must verify either that the contractor is registered by the State of Washington, or that
one of the exemptions stated under RCW 18.27.090 applies.
4. In order to provide verification to the City of Tukwila of my compliance with this requirement, I
hereby attest that after reading the exemptions from the registration requirement of RCW 18.27.090,
I consider the work authorized under this permit to be exempt under number f L , and will therefore
not be performed by a registered contractor.
5. I understand that the licensing provision of RCW 19.28.161 through 19.28.271 shall not apply to
persons making electrical installations on their own property or to regularly employed employees
working on the premises of their employer. The proposed electrical work is not for the construction
of a new building for rent, sale or lease.
I understand that I may be waiving certain rights that I might otherwise have under state law in any decision
to engage an unregistered contractor to perform construction work.
