Cross Reiter was engaged by a private developer to help overcome permitting challenges associated with a mapped steep slope hazard on their property on Tiger Mountain in Issaquah. Cross Reiter completed a desktop review and site reconnaissance to evaluate actual risks from the steep slopes, and authored a letter that recommended a reduction in King County’s standard 50-foot steep slope buffer for the project. The reduced setback was critical to move the project forward.

We furnished precise recommendations to effectively mitigate slope-related impacts, encompassing earthwork and vegetation strategies designed to ensure enduring stability and safety for the neighboring Tiger Mountain Road SE. Our rapid response and efficient analysis resulted in swift completion of our work, all within a week of the initial client contact.

Cross Reiter's expertise overcame permitting obstacles and facilitated realization of the project's objectives, demonstrating our commitment to delivering value-driven solutions.
