the requested adjustment.
SECTION IV. APPLICABLE REVIEW CRITERIA AND FINDINGS
COMPLIANCE WITH COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CODE SECTIONS:

rear yard setbacks required in the base zone.
Lot coverage. Up to 5% increase of the maximum lot coverage required in the base
zone.
The applicant has requested a 2 foot 8 inch adjustment to the rear yard setback to allow the
placement of an addition within the required setback. This addition is for a family room. Up
to a three (3) foot reduction of this setback may be allowed provided the following criteria are
addressed. The applicant is requesting less than the maximum allowed under the code.
A development Adjustment shall be granted if there is a demonstration of compliance
with all of the applicable standards:

Edwin,
I will most likely issue the adjustment decision midweek - next week. I spoke with Elizabeth Smith
yesterday regarding the $249.00 fee due for the adjustment application. She indicated she would drop it
by. I cannot answer regarding Mark's review. He is out until Tuesday. I am copying him on this e-mail
so he will respond next week.

I have submitted the adjustment form as of Friday. Is there any way to know how far off the permit
process is?

Edwin,
In response to your voice mail regarding the adjustment for 13735 SW 116th, there are four approval
criteria that must be addressed in the applicants statement. These criteria can be found on the city
website at www.ci.tigard.or.us - click on the quick link to the Development Code. The code section is
18.370.020.6.2. The applicant's statement should also express the amount of adjustment being
requested. These reviews are Type 1 and generally take two weeks to approve. I can let Mark, our plans
examiner, know the adjustment is coming and he will continue his review of the construction plans. The
building permit cannot be issued until after the adjustment is approved. There is no appeal period for a
Type 1 application, so the soonest you may be able to get a permit is two weeks after the adjustment
submittal. I hope this answers your questions.
