CV-011205 Campbell 2 lot short plat M E M O R A N D U M City of Yelm Community Development Department Engineering Division   Pre-Application Meeting Date January 12, 2005 Civil 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: LeeAnne Campbell Project: Construct 2 lot short plat (Legal description is Lot 7 and 8) Project Location: 201 3rd St NE Yelm, WA 98597 Water The proposed site is currently connected to the City of Yelm’s water system. This building is served by one 5/8”-3/4” water meter. This project will be required to install an additional water meter for serving the second lot. The water line is located in the alley behind the proposed property. An additional water connection will be required. Water connections are based on a consumption rate of 900 cubic feet a month and are charged at a rate of $1,500 per a connection (fee subject to change) inside city limits. This existing lot will be credited with one connection (900 cubic feet a month). Additional water fees are payable at building permit issuance. Irrigation Meter: An irrigation meter may 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 property is currently connected to the City of Yelm’s STEP sewer system and will be created with one existing connection. The existing step sewer tank is located on the adjacent lot that serves this site. This tank will not support another connection. This project will be required to install its own step sewer tanks and required equipment to serve both lots. This project will be required to install 2 new sewer services on the existing sewer main located in the alley. Sewer connections are based on a consumption rate of 900 cubic feet a month and are charged at a rate of $5,269 per a connection (fee subject to change) inside city limits. An inspection fee of $145.00 per a connection will also be required. This location will be credited with one sewer connection. Additional connection fees are payable a building permit issuance. Fire All projects need to have fire protection for the buildings. When reviewing proposals or projects for compliance with the International Fire Code (UFC) the following need to be addressed: Does the proposal have fire hydrant coverage? To meet this requirement the building must have coverage by fire hydrants. All parts of the buildings must be within hose pull of a fire hydrant. Another means of meeting fire code may be by installing a fire sprinkler system or utilizing fire lanes for fire truck access. 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. If stormwater mitigation is required the types of stormwater mitigation may be wet ponds, bioswales and filter strips. The stormwater disposal is 100% infiltration. There is 2 ways to accomplish this: open ponds and underground galleries. The open ponds are depressions that store stormwater and allow it to perk back into the underground aquifer. This project will be required to control and mitigate the stormwater concentrated by the installation of the frontage improvements. All roof down spouts must be connected to on-site dry wells. Street Improvements TC \l1 " The proposed improvement will be required to improve the frontage of Jefferson and Third Streets. If access is requested though the alley the alley will have to be upgraded. Jefferson St is classified as a “local access commercial” roadway. The half street improvements would include 18’ asphalt, vertical concrete curb and gutter, 6’ planter strip and 5’ sidewalk. Third St is classified as a “local access commercial” roadway. The half street improvements would include 18’ asphalt, vertical concrete curb and gutter, 6’ planter strip and 5’ sidewalk. For structural sections and additional information see the City of Yelm Development Guidelines 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.
