RE: SITE ADDRESS: 134 BALSA WAY
CASE #: BLD2021-00253
Dear RAPHAEL D & KIMBERLY J THORNTON:
The Department of Community Development is in the process of reviewing your application. The
following information is needed to continue review of your project.
The stormwater plan and site plan indicate that a drywell will be used for roof water
stormwater management. Please provide the dimensions of the drywell. With the roof area you are
treating, you will need a total drywell size of 242 cubic feet. The drywell can only be 4 feet deep due
to the expected water table on your property.
Additionally, the raingarden proposal for driveway management requires more information. The
raingarden is required to be designed according to the Raingarden Handbook that will be linked in
the associated email. You must provide a supplement to the site plan that shows the rain garden in
detail. The specific zones and types of plants and locations specific to your proposal. You must also
provide DCD with the proposed square footage and ponding depth of the raingarden.
Please revise the site plan with these changes and resubmit for review.
Please submit the above information to the Department of Community Development within 90 days
of the date of this letter which would be 8/15/2021. Please call 360-379-4454 to speak with the
assigned planner if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
