[WSBARP] Covenant

All

PC planned an extensive remodel of her King County home. As part of the
permit process, King County required a covenant to be recorded "for
maintenance and inspection of flow control."

As I understand, because she was going to expand the footprint of the
house, King County wanted her to add two trench infiltration systems to her
yard that were to be attached to the existing gutter system (as near I can
see from the sketch.) Being enthusiastic about her remodel, she recorded
the covenant.

And then the whole project fell through as it turned out the addition
couldn't be built as designed without spending about as much as the house
is already worth.

Her question to me was, can she somehow undo the recording of that covenant
since the permit is expired and she isn't going to do anything about it?
She really doesn't want to build the trench infiltration system if it isn't
required for a remodel.
