cr-030304 Sports Park on Railway Rd M E M O R A N D U M City of Yelm Community Development Department Engineering Division   Pre-Application Meeting March 3, 2004 Civil Engineering Comments These comments are preliminary in nature and are not intended to represent final comments and or requirements for the City of Yelm. Until a complete application is made, the Community Development Department can only attempt to inform the applicant of general requirements as they appear in the form presented by the applicant at the time of pre-submission. Proponent: Ben Harris Project: Baseball and Sports Park Project Location: Railway Road Yelm, WA 98597 Tax Parcel Numbers 643007302, 303, 304 Water The proposed site is not currently connected to the City of Yelm’s domestic water system. This project will be required to extend a city water main to serve this site. Currently there is a 10” water main located at the intersection of Middle Road and Railway. This project will have to extend a 10” watermain up to and across the project frontage. This proposal will also have to pay a water connection fee. This fee is based on Equivalent Residential Unit (ERU). Water connection fees are based on a consumption rate of an ERU (240 gallons per day) and are charged at a rate of $1,500/ERU (fee subject to change) inside city limits. At the time of application submittal you will be required to submit water usage calculations provided by a licensed civil engineer for the proposed use of the property. Connection fees will be calculated using the information provided by your engineer. A back flow prevention device will be required and must be installed on all the water services and irrigation meters. Reclaimed Water System The City of Yelm has a reclaimed water system used for irrigation and non-consumable water uses. The reclaimed water system is located at the intersection of N.P Road and Rhoton Road. This project would be required to utilize this system for irrigation of the baseball fields. This system has a much-reduced fee for water. The reclaimed water fee is charged at a flat rate of $0.92 per 100 cubic feet of water use. The domestic water fee is much higher. See attached fee schedule for comparison. Sewer TC \l1 " The proposed site is currently not connected to the City of Yelm’s S.T.E.P. sewer system. This proposal will be required to extend the city owned STEP sewer system to this property. The public sewer systems’ closest location is the intersection of Middle Road and Railway. You will be required to extend a 6” step sewer main up to and across the projects frontage. After extending the sewer main, you will be required to install a STEP tank system(s) to serve your use(s). Sewer connection fees are based on the same ERU as water and are charged at a rate of $5,269/ERU (fee subject to change) inside city limits. At the time of application submittal you will be required to submit water usage calculations provided by a licensed civil engineer. The sewer fees will be calculated using the information provided by the engineer. Fire Fire protection to the buildings must be provided per the Uniform Building Code. Fire hydrants and or fire sprinkler systems may be required to provide adequate fire coverage. The location of required hydrants will be determined as part of the civil plan review. TC \l1 " Stormwater TC \l1 " If the project creates over 5,000 square feet of impervious surface, a preliminary stormwater plan will be required at the time of land use application and a final plan at the time of civil plan review. The City has adopted the 1992 Department of Ecology Stormwater Manual. If a stormwater plan is not required, stormwater runoff still may not be concentrated and discharged to the ground or to adjacent properties, including public rights-of-way. Required landscaping areas may not be used for stormwater treatment. Street Improvements TC \l1 " Frontage improvements will be required for this project. Railway Road is identified as a neighborhood collector roadway. The required improvements would be a 16’ travel lane, concrete curb and gutter, a 6’ planter strip with street trees, and a 5' sidewalk. Half street improvements will be required to be constructed along the frontage of this property before occupancy. Street Lighting TC \l1 " Street lighting will be required for this project and will be reviewed upon civil engineering application. ADA Requirements The American Disabilities Act required that 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 architectural plans.
