A little Seattle Zoning Info
April 6th, 2008
I deal in a lot of rehab projects. With that comes a number of properties in diverse locations. As part of my service for my clients I have spent sometime at the department of Planning and Development researching a lot of different zoning and land use issues. Here are a few zoning terms that could help you.
What are ECA markers?
ECA markets are controls put in place by the Environmental Protection Association, these are there to protect wet lands and to help prevent land erosion, and everyone other type of environmental protection you can imagine.
Zoning:
L1= structure every 1600sqft
L2=structure every 1200 sqft
L3=structure every 800 sqft
For all Ya’ll that want to build a little commercial under some apartments, you need NC=neighborhood commercial.
NC230= build 30ft high
NC250= build 50ft high
Hope thats helps a little.
