Proponent: David Kehie Architects
Project: Construct a Restauant/Retail Commerical Building
Project Location: 512 Yelm Ave W
Yelm, WA 98597
Water
The proposed development is within the City’s water service area and would be
required to connect to city’s water system. There is an existing 6” water main located in
Plaza Drive and an 8” water main located in Yelm Ave. The project site may also have an 8” water main located within the Sunbirds/Subway parking lot. The exact location is not known
at the time of this meeting.
Commercial water connections are based on a consumption rate of 240 gallons per day and are charged at a rate of $1,500 per a residential connection (fee subject to change) inside city
limits. Proposed calculations will need to be provided at the time of civil review to determine the number of gallons of use a day for this project. These fees are payable at time of
building permit issuance.
Fire hydrants will need to be located to cover all parts of the building. The coverage radius is 150’ with access to the hydrants for a fire truck. Your civil engineer will need to
provide fire flow calculations for this project. The required fire flow will be determined upon further review of the proposed project.
Irrigation Meter:
An irrigation meter shall be installed for the purpose of irrigation. An approved backflow prevention device will be required for all landscape irrigation connections.
Cross Connection Control:
Washington State Department of Health, in WAC 246-290-490 states that all group A water systems with 1000 or more connections are required by the department of health to develop and
implement a cross control connection program. This program requires all commercial buildings and irrigation systems to have a back flow prevention device installed on the water services.
A list of approved devices can be located at the above referenced Washington Administrative Code.
Sewer TC \l1 "
The proposed site is currently not connected to the City of Yelm’s STEP sewer system. This site is served by a 4” sewer main located in Plaza Road. This project will be required to
connect to Plaza Road or within the QFC parking lot. This will be at the discretions of the City of Yelm.
This project will be required to install a City of Yelm STEP sewer tank assembly and an oil/water and or grease interceptor before the STEP tank.
Commercial sewer connections are based on a consumption rate of 240 gallons per day and are charged at a rate of $5,417 per a connection (fee subject to change) inside city limits.
An inspection fee of $145.00 per a connection will also be required.
Fire
All projects need to have fire protection for the buildings. Fire protection must be
provided per the adopted 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 TC \l1 "
Developments with over 5,000 square feet of impervious surface are required to provide
stormwater facilities pursuant to the 1992 DOE Stormwater Manual. The preliminary
stormwater proposal will be reviewed at the time of land use submittal.
