Proponent: Yelm Prairie Christian Center Jeff Dickerson
Project: Church Expansion
Project Loc: 501 103rd Avenue
Water:
The proposed development is within the City’s water service area and is required to connect to City’s water system. There is an existing 6” water main located on 103rd Avenue and an
existing 8” main serving the existing facility.
Water connection fees are based on a daily consumption rate and are charged at a current rate of $1,500 per 240 gallons/day (fee subject to change) inside the city limits. Calculations
will need to be provided at the time of civil review to determine the number of gallons of use a day for the church expansion. A 5/8” water meter cost is $300.00 for a pretapped and
preplumbed installation. These fees are payable at time of building permit issuance.
An irrigation meter may be installed for the purpose of irrigation. A backflow prevention device will be required for all landscape irrigation connections.
Sewer:
The proposed site will be required to connect to the City's sewer system. There is a 4” sewer line located in Creek Street along 103rd Avenue.
The sewer connection fee is based on water usage and is charged at a rate of $4,986 per 240 gallons/day (fee subject to change). Calculations will need to be provided at the time of
civil review to determine the number of gallons of use a day for the church expansion. The city also charges an inspection fee of $145.00 for each step sewer system. These fee’s are
payable a building permit issuance.
Fire:
Fire protection must be provided per the Uniform Fire Code. There will be requirements for installation of fire hydrants, fire truck access and fire truck turn-around. These will be
determined upon further review of the preliminary civil and architect plans.
Stormwater:
If the proposed improvement has over 5,000 square feet of new impervious surface there are stormwater treatment and detention requirements per the 1992 D.O.E. Stormwater Manual (Manual
subject to change). At the time of Site Plan Review, you are required to submit a Preliminary Stormwater Plan and report.
Street Improvements:
Frontage improvements to 103rd Avenue will be required as part of the project. As 103rd Avenue will soon be reconstructed by the City, the frontage improvements will be deferred and,
at the time of construction, the Church will be required to contribute it’s portion of the improvement costs. All parking areas and drive aisles must be asphalt surfaced.
A Traffic Impact Assessment will be required as part of the land use application process as the proposal will generate more than 20 peak trips. The TIA must identify traffic impacts
associated with the development and propose mitigation measures.
Street Lighting:
Street and on-site lighting shall be installed as required per the City of Yelm’s “Development Guidelines”. The lighting plan will be reviewed at the time of civil engineering plan
review.
ADA Requirements:
The American Disabilities Act requires the improvements to be ADA accessible. Facility improvements will have to meet current code. Review of these improvements will be determined
upon further review of the civil plans.
