Stucco, vinyl and EIFS rules for new building

The City of Lynnwood’s City Center Design Guidelines have a materials table for new development in the City Center zones. Table G marks stucco “Secondary” on street-level frontage facades and “Primary” on the other levels, and it marks EIFS “Not Permitted” at street level. Table I lists vinyl siding as “Not Permitted” on every facade type. The Citywide Design Guidelines, adopted in 2001, say of the multi-family district that “Stucco shall not be used on the first floor”. The Highway 99 guidelines say “EIFS is prohibited on the first floor of a building.” These are design standards for building in particular zones and districts, and they say nothing about washing.

Moss around houses, per WSU

Per WSU Extension’s demossing manual, moss “may become a problem” on houses and other structures in the Pacific Northwest’s cool, moist climate. This is a regional statement from the manual, not a statement about one city.
