Proponent: Sunny Chaussee and Christine Scogin
Project: Retail Store in Rear Building of Trading Post
Project Loc: Yelm Ave and Railroad, Yelm WA 98597
These notes are based on the assumption this project will need to go through site plan review. Please see presubmission notes from the planning section.
Water:
The proposed site would need to connect to the City's water system. There is an existing 6” water line located in Yelm Ave West. The proponent will be required to provide the water
meter tap, service line and meter setter see detail attached.
Water ERU's (equivalent residential units) are based on a consumption rate of 240 gallons per day and are charged at a rate of $1,500/ERU (fee subject to change) inside city limits.
This water usage will be calculated by your civil engineer. This will be reviewed at the civil engineering plan review.
Irrigation Meter:
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 main line available on Yelm Ave West. You will be required to install a step sewer system.
The pump tank will also be required to have a simplex pumping system. This system will be designed and submitted to the City of Yelm for approval by a civil engineer licensed in the
state of Washington.
The total number of sewer ERU’s required for this project is dependent on the calculations submitted.
The sewer ERU's (equivalent residential units) are based on discharge of 240 gallons per day and are charged at a current rate of $5,125/ERU payable at building permit issuance.
Fire:
Fire protection to the buildings 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 plans.
Stormwater:
If the proposed improvement is over 5,000 square feet of impervious surface or adverse drainage issues there will be stormwater treatment requirements per the D.O.E. Stormwater Manual.
At the time of Site Plan Review submittal a Preliminary Stormwater Plan and report will be required.
Street Improvements:

time of construction as required by the City. Such improvements may include paving of existing and/or new parking areas, curb and gutter; sidewalk; street storm drainage; street lighting
system; traffic signal modification, relocation or installation; utility relocation; landscaping and irrigation, and street widening and transit stops, pads and shelters all per these
Standards. Plans shall be prepared and signed by a licensed civil engineer registered in the State of Washington.
The interior drive isle and parking shall be consistent with the city’s parking details located in the development guidelines.
Street improvements may not be limited to above references. The possible requirement of a TIA may also trigger additional improvements to project or surrounding roadways.
Street Lighting:
Street lighting may be installed as required in the City of Yelm’s “Development Guidelines”. The street lighting plans shall be submitted to the City of Yelm for review and approval.
The on-site parking lot lighting will be reviewed at the time of civil engineering plan review.
ADA Requirements:
The American Disabilities Act requires the facilities are ADA accessible. Facility improvements will have to meet current code. Review of these improvements will be determined upon
further review of the civil and architecture plans.
