Sign Code - Temporary Event Signs -
Cathie Carlson gave staff report. Jerry & Fran McCarthy (owners of "Sleepy
Hollow") attended a City Council meeting In October where they expressed
concern to special event signage on their property City Council sent the
McCarthy's request to the Planning Commission for review and a possible
solution City Staff reviewed the sign code and discussed how the sign code
could be amended to allow for additional special event slgnage for properties
off of the main streets, while malntaimng the Intent of the Sign Code, Section
15 24 010 Any amendment to the sign code would be applicable city wide
Upon review of the code and discussion on possible solutions the staff was
unable to develop an amendment for the McCarthy's situation Without
allOWing for the additional signage throughout the city
Staff recommends the Planning Commission take the McCarthy's request
into consideration The Planning Commission can either propose an
amendment or recommend to the City Council that no changes be made to
the Sign Code
Bob Isom asked about all the "sandwich board" type signs in front of
"Stockmarket Foods" along Yelm Ave East, is "Stockmarket. " gOing to be
Instructed to remove those signs, since they are not permitted at other
businesses? Also, what about signs at "Gordon's"?

Jerry Prock, Yelm Building Dept., stated that he will take Immediate action
if directed to do so by the Planning Commission "Gordons'" signs that are
attached to the building(s) were "grand fathered" in
There was further discussion Jerry Prock stated that "Sleepy Hollow"
currently has more slgnage than any other business at that complex
("Nisqually Plaza") and more than would be allowed with the present Sign
Code
Joe Huddleston asked the Planning Commission if there were any additional
comments? There were none Joe asked If any changes should be made
to the Sign Code? There were none Joe then stated that the Planning
Commission will recommend this issue back to the City Council with no
amendments to the Sign Code
Jerry Prock will take immediate action on the "sandwich sign - boards" along
Yelm Avenue, but action Will not be taken with the McCarthy's until after the
next City Council meeting, January 8, 1997

Zoning Code Amendments - Work session
Cathie Carlson started the Work session by giving a staff report. Low
Density Residential Distnct (R-4) currently allows duplex development at the
allowed density of 4 units per acre As a result, preliminary plat applications
in thiS district are being proposed With a mix of single family homes and
duplexes In addition, this allows for the potential of sites being developed
solely as a duplex development. Issues 1) By allOWing duplexes in single
family areas, is the intent of the R-4 district being met? 2) The R-4 district
has a maximum density but not a minimum density, as does the R-6 Distnct.
Does the City need a minimum density in R-4?
Staff Recommendation Low Density ReSidential -
1 Delete duplex as an allowed use in the R-4 District.
2 Consider a minimum density of 2 Units per acre and a maximum density
of 4 units per acre
Shelly Badger showed the areas of concern on the large zoning map
E.J. Curry and Roberta Longmire both stated that thiS issue is brought to the
Planning CommiSSion every year, and they both feel that duplexes should be
left In before mobile homes are allowed Others on the CommiSSion agreed
Yelrn Planning Commission
December 16, 1996

Cathie Carlson continued with staff report. The High Density Residential
District (R-10) provides for a maximum density of 10 units per gross area
The staff has had discussions with local developers on the cost effectiveness
of multi-family at 10 Units per acre and has analyzed the utilization of a
parcel with different scenario's uSing site layout's for duplexes, tri-plexes and
four-plexes Issues 1) The most likely type of development that will occur
at a density of 10 Units per acre is duplex and tri-plex. Development of more
compact units (four-plexes, small apartment buildings) can leave a large
portion of the site unused Does this provide for an adequate inventory of
housing types and cost effective projects for developers? 2) The R-10
district has a maximum density but not a minimum density, as does the R-6
District. Does the City need a minimum density in R-10?
Staff Recommendation High Density ReSidential -
1 Increase maximum density from 10 units per acre to 14 units per acre
2. ConSider a minimum density of 8 units per acre and a maximum density
of 14 units per acre
Joe Huddleston asked if the sewer/water figures will be wrong for 14 Units
per acre instead of 10 units per acre? Shelly Badger said no Joe then
asked the CommiSSion members about Increasing the density from 10 Units
to 14 Units per acre There was some discussion Joe asked if there were
any objections to raising the 10 units per acre to 14 Units per acre? There
were none
The Planning CommiSSion discussed the need for minimum densities
Margaret Clapp stated that maybe there should be a minimum, otherwise the
higher density areas are wasted on Single family etc A majonty of the
Commission members do not like "minimums" of any kind
Cathie Carlson concluded her staff report. Central Business District -
In the CBD, building locations and setbacks are evaluated on a case by case
basis except for setbacks from the public nght of way Section 17 24 070,
requires a 15' setback from all public nght-of-ways, which include alleys
Most existing businesses have little or no setback from the nght-of-way or
alley Issue 1) As vacant lots develop the building placement will be
inconsistent with eXisting structures Also, most lots in the CBD front on a
public nght-of-way and an alley This would require a 15' setback on both
the front and rear yard

Staff Recommendation -
1 Delete Section 17 24 070, thereby allOWing for site specific determination
of bUilding placement that will be consistent with surrounding buildings
There was little discussion Joe asked the Commission how they felt about
omitting thiS section? It was the consensus of the Planning Commission to
omit Section 17 24 070
Meeting adjourned at 5 00 pm

informal worksessions to explore Issues J11 a "think tank" fashion. We
also started a ncw practICe of sendmg you a recap shortly after each
worksesslOn. Your awareness of our discussions and follow.up actions
will make aUf collective efforts more effective
Attached IS a recap of our November 1, 1996 worksesslOn. OUf goal
was to decide on priOrIties and next steps III dIe area of "Coordinating
Growth Management Act ImplementatIOn". Once again, staff from
member jurisdictions participated in the workseSSIOn.
After the workscssion, the RegIOnal Council reconvened and decided
that our first pnonty will be to exanune.
Financing region-wide infrastructure (includmg a cumulative
look at regional and 10calll1frastfucture).
Staff will develop a proposed approach for the RegIOnal Council to
consider early next year If you have Ideas or questions, please make
sure to convey them to your Regional Council representative.

RECAP
Thurston Regional Planning Council Worksession, November 1, 1996
"Coordinating Growth Management Act Implementation 11
Last month~ Council members and staff from TRPC and member JUrIsdictions had
identified needs m five key growth management topic areas. Council/staff pIcked up
where the last worksession had lcft off, widl each of five small groups refreshing the
full group on the topic it had explored.
Then, ill a preliminary "round robm tl , each participant identified lus/hcr top priority out
of those five topiCS, and stated the reasons why. Financing region-wide infrastructure
was considered the top priority by 14 people Next w~re: articulatmg a long-term
regional vision (6); continuing to ~stabltsh common standards, processes and
boundaries (5); addressmg "concurrency" mtergovernmentaJ1y (1; people noted that
this really went together with standards, processes and boundarIes), and preparing a
Growth Management Act "report card" (people noted that this IS already underway
through TRPC's work on a Benchmarks and Indicators report)
After further dIScussIon by the full group, each pcrson cast a ballot to note ills/her top
priorIty The results were sImilar, with ] 5 people noting infrastructure as theIr top
pnorny.
HIghlights from the discussIon about mfrastructure
We need a reahstlc assessment of total costs and abIlity to pay ThIs can enable
us to deal With the public's frustratiOn regarding needs/costs in a more organized
way.
This is one of the most dIfficult elements, but paymg for infrastructure underlies
our Growth Management Act work, and is tied to the other GMA elements.
This relates to an overall VISIon, but it also is very practical
TIllS may help us get changes at a htgher level of government, if we need them.
The time IS nght~ and TRPC is the right forum.
After closmg the worksesslOll, the Regional Council reconvened and directed TRPC
staff to coordinate with member agenCIes' staff and return with a proposed approach
early next year. 01 :lb

Cathie Carlson agreed that from 1000-1 00 P m IS very busy at the Post
Office, and if they were gOing to be site specific then they would use those
hours In the traffic study The P M peak hours (4 30-6 00 pm) are used In
thiS study because that IS the city's most congested time In the whole city
The traffic IS busiest on most of the main streets, side streets, as well as at
the Post Office, grocery store etc at thiS time In the day
Cralq Steepy, from S Chamberlain & Assoc , affirmed CathIe's statement,
and added that different land uses have different "peak hours" - but the
overall busiest and congested time In the whole city is dUring the P M peak
hours The Post Office parking lot may be very full and congested dUring the
1000 - 1 00 P m time frame, but the rest of the street system IS working 0 K.
Shelly Badqer added that the congested parking lot problem at the current
Post Office site was factored Into thiS study, so thiS won't be a problem at
the new site
Ray Kent stated that he IS concerned about the flow of traffic and the Ingress
and egress at the proposed site of the new Post Office
E.J. Curry stated that It seems there Will be many cars coming down Side
streets to get to the new Post Office site rather than uSing Yelm Avenue and
the new Five Corners Intersection
Shelly Badqer stated that there Will be road Improvements on Creek Street,
Plaza Drive and Algiers Drive which Will better accommodate for added
vehicles traveling to the Post Office
Tom Gorman asked If there were any further questions?
Roberta Lonqmlre Inquired about the street Improvements on Algiers Drive
and Algiers Court.
There was much diSCUSSion regarding Algiers Dr & Algiers Ct. It was the
consensus of the Planning Commission members that Algiers Drive should
have half street Improvements along property frontage of Phase III that IS
adjacent to properties owned by other Individuals, and shall Include one - 12'
driVing lane, 5' Sidewalk, 6' planter strip, street lighting and landscaping
Full street Improvements should be required for Phase III where the
applicant owns both sides of the road Upon full Improvement to Algiers
Drive, It should be dedicated to the City as a public right of way

Re
Site Plan Amendment for Prame Plaza, SPR-8095
Background
Prame Plaza ShoppIng Center received bIndmg site plan approval In May of 1994 The approval
IS for 71,000 sf of retail space and a 4,000 sffast food pad, As approved, the project IS reqmred
to construct all mfrastructure Improvements (streets, utihty lInes, stormwater) pnor to the
Issuance of any buildIng perrruts SEP A lTIltlgatlon Includes 5 Corners/Y -2 contributIOns not to
exceed $41,100 00, the applIcant shall sign an agreement walVmg any nght to protest the
formatlOn of a LID or Latecomer's Agreement and the completion of all rrut1gatIOn as described In
the Traffic Impact AnalysIs Ongmal site plan attached
Proposal
Prame Plaza Site Plan Amendment mcludes constructmg the project m three phases, replacmg the
fast food pad (4,000 sf) With a lube and tire shop (6,300 sf.), and replacmg a 12,000 sfretail
buildIng With a 6,800 sf Post Office Amended site plan attached.
Analvsis
The Impacts Identified In the ongmal analYSIS for the project change shghtly by the proposed
amendment. Stormwater and traffic Impacts have been re-accessed based on the new proposal,
Storm water
The ongInal prelImmary stormwater report, calculatIOns and conceptual layout were based on the
assumptIOn that the entire site would be developed at one tIme The prehrrunary plans were to
prOVide stormwater facihtIes throughout the site servmg more than one area/buildmg.
With the proposed phasmg of the project It IS necessary to ensure each phase fully contams all
stormwater generated by the SIte development of each phase; The applIcant has sublTIltted a
*
Recyckdpaper
revIsed stormwater plan and report as an element of the amendment Stormwater for each phase
will be desIgned and constructed to accommodate stormwater generated by that phase No
C shared stormwater facilItIes are proposed wIth the phasmg plan.
Traffic
The ongmal traffic analysIs, prepared by S Chamberlam and Associates, IdentIfied the number of
tnps generated by the proposed uses, the dIstributIOn of those tnps, and the lTIltIgatIOn necessary
to reduce the Impacts of the addItIonal traffic on the road system.
Based on the proposed new uses, S Chamberlam and AssocIates, reevaluated the traffic Impacts
and the appropnate mItlgatIOn. Because of a sIgmficant reductIon m pm peak hour tnps
generated by the proposed amendment and the planned constructIon of the 5-Corners sIgnal the
revIsed traffic report finds that momtonng and future sIgnalIzatIon at the mtersectIOn of Plaza
Dnve and Y elm Avenue IS not longer warranted. The remammg mItIgatIOn measures remam m
place, with lTIlnor modificatIOns, and are IdentIfied below under each Phase of the project
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends the SIte Plan Amendment for Prame Plaza be approved With the followmg
condItIOns
Phase I, Tire and Lube Store:
o
All stormwater facilItIes shall be deSIgned per the Thurston County Stormwater Manual
The stormwater faCIlItIes shall be deSIgned and constructed for Phase I stormwater only
2

and landscapmg. AddItIOnal fIght-of-way shall be dedIcatIOn as reqUIred to meet
the above standards Plaza Dnve shall remam pnvate until full build-out of the
project.
.3
5 Corners/Y -2 MitIgatIOn
The proposed land use (lube and tIre store) IS a much less mtense use than the approved
use as a fast food The revIsed traffic study IdentIfied a sIgmficant reductIOn m the number
of tnps generated dunng the pm peak hour
F ollowmg the same analysIs process as the ongmal study the pm peak hour traffic Impact
to the 5 -C orners mtersectIOn from Phase I (lube and tlre shop) wIll be four tnps SEP A
mItIgatIOn for thIS projects requIres the applIcant contnbute $300 00 per pm peak tnp
through the 5 Corners mtersectIOn resultmg m a contributIOn of $1,200 00 The traffic
mItIgatIOn fee IS payable pnor to Issuance of a buildmg pemut.

accommodate half street Improvements AlgIers Dnve shall remam a pnvate road.

Street Improvement Project The SIte IS reqUIred to dedIcate an addItIonal IS' to
accommodate half street Improvements The property owner shall partIcIpate m
the Creek Street Improvement Project.
3 5 Comers/Y-2 MitIgatIOn
The proposed land use, Post Office IS a more mtense use than the 12,000 sf retail buildmg
that was approved for thIS area.
Because the operatIon of the Yelm Post Office IS predommately mail boxes rather than
route servIce, the InstItute of TransportatIon Engmeers, Tnp GeneratIon Manual. 5th
EdItIon, does not proVIde accurate mformatIOn on tnp generatIon. To establIsh an
accurate tnp generatIon number a pm peak count at the eXIstmg post office was done
The pm peak tnps were compared to the eXIstmg number of mail boxes In the post office
to establIsh a ratIO oftnps to mail boxes
Total pm peak hour traffic generated by the Post Office will be 81 tnps DIstributIon of
the pm peak hour traffic has not be establIshed at the tIme of staff report. Final
dIstributIOn and Impact to the 5-Comers mtersectIOn from Phase II (Post Office) will be
completed by the Plannmg COmmISSIOn PublIc Heanng on August 19, 1996 Staffwill

Continuation of Public HearinQ - Development Fees:
E.J. Curry opened the public heanng at 4 05 P m E J asked the public If
they had any objections to any of the Planning Commission members There
were none
Cathie Carlson gave the revised staff report. Cathie spoke of the three
Issues that were brought up at the June 17 meeting, and then she addressed
each The three issues were
1 Compare the current fees to the proposed fees by
calculating each set of fees with all projects done in
1995
2 Look into Appeal and Minor Amendment fees
3 Omit the King County Cities used on the onglnal
comparison chart and use others
Cathie gave her answer for each of the situations above
1 With the proposed fees applied to the projects done in 1995,
It generated an additional $15,200 In revenue Cathie also
included the following Information, In 1995, the Planning Dept.
budget was $82,910, the fees actually collected were $11,400
Those fees represent 14% of the overall ping dept. budget.
In 1996, the Ping Dept. budget was $88,818, and uSing the
same projects In 95' with the proposed fees would have
generated $26,600 With the new fees, It would have
represented 30% of the overall ping dept. budget.
Cathie then stated that she spends about 75% of her time on
Yelm F lanning C_'mmissiuIl
cTuly 15, 199f

current planning This Includes working one on one with
people at the counter and on the phone besides working on
applications
The orrglnal survey used to do a comparrson didn't Include
fees for appeals, minor amendments or final plats Cathie
stated that she gathered related Info from the cities of Lacey,
Olympia, Tumwater and from Thurston County Cathie worked
out a com parr son with these jurisdictions on the fees for
appeals, minor amendments and final plats The City of Yelm
IS right about In the middle with the proposed fees compared
to the other Jurrsdlctlons Cathie explained further how the
different fees are applied to the different types of appeals etc
The original analysis used eight jurrsdictions to compare fees,
to get an Idea of high cost, low cost and where the City of
Yelm fits into that range The Planning Commission asked
that the King County Cities be extracted out of the orrginal
companson Cathie explained about each of those Cities and
spoke of how they fit In the range compared to Yelm Cathie
feels that the eight Jurisdictions used in the orrglnal
comparrson analysIs were comparable
3
E.J. then asked If there were any questions or comments from the public?
There were none Questions from the Planning Commission?
Ed PittS asked Cathie why some of the proposed fees are so much higher
and how did she come to the proposed amounts?
Cathie said that she estimated roughly the minimum amount of staff time It
takes from beginning to end on each application type, (an application without
any problems) and the proposed fees that she arrived at represent anywhere
from 35-50% of the costs associated with each particular application Cathie
stated that she was not trying to "break even" In any way Cathie added that
the main comparison chart used at the previous meeting, Included fee
Information from a citywide fee schedule from AW C (ASSOCiation of
Washington Cities) The Information (from AW C ) were fees from 1994, so
those fees are about two years behind There was more diSCUSSion
E.J. asked If there were any more comments or questions? There were
none E J closed the publiC hearrng at 4 24 p m E J asked the Planning
Commission If there was a motion to forward this onto the City Council?
Cathie Informed the Planning Commission members that they could have a
special work session on thiS (Development Fees) if they wanted to diSCUSS

Public Hearinq - VARIANCE-8175, Ruby Fitzqerald
Joe Huddleston took over as Chair of the meeting The public heanng was
opened at 4 30 P m Joe asked the Commission members If there was any
conflict of Interest? There was none Joe then asked the audience If there
was any conflict to any of the Planning Commission members present?
There was none
Cathie gave the staff report explaining the proposal Reduce the rear
setback from 20 feet down to 5 feet, located In the Central Business Dlstnct
at 208 Jefferson Street. Cathie said that the subject site used to be zoned
residential, when the City updated the zoning code, this area was
redesignated for Commercial, but the reality of thiS area being redeveloped
Into Commercial In the near future is not real probable (Photos of the
eXisting property and other properties around the Fitzgerald's were passed
around for the Planning Commission members to review) Cathie read from
Chapter 17 96, which is the amendment to the Re-zone and Vanance
section In the ZOning Code Cathie also stated that the BUilding Dept. and
the Public Works staff have all reviewed and approved the proposal Cathie
stated that the staff recommendation IS to approve the variance and forward
It to the City Council for their final approval
Joe Huddleston asked the Fitzgerald's If they had anything to add to the
staff report? They did not. Joe then asked if there were any comments from
the audience? There were none Questions or comments from the Planning
Commission?
Joe asked the Fitzgerald's If they planned to use the extra space to bUild a
garage?
Mr, Fitzqerald affirmed that the space gained With the Variance is to be used
for a new garage He stated that they already have the plans and a price
quote for the new garage from a local contractor
Roberta Lonqmlre asked Cathie what the allowance IS for a rear yard In the
Commercial District?
Cathie stated that the allowance IS 20 feet, but the Fitzgerald's are
requesting It be a minimum 5 feet.

Roberta then asked what the rear year allowance is In Residential?
Cathie stated that there are differences - High Density IS 25 feet, and the
Low and Moderate Density is 20 feet.
Roberta then asked If the City IS setting up a situation where the Varrance
IS granted, a two car garage IS bUilt and then down the road when the area
goes Commercial and the fairly new garage or other type of bUilding must be
demolished? Are we setting a precedent?
Cathie stated that each variance is evaluated for its own ment. Cathie stated
the eXisting use around the Fltzgeralds' lot are garages built to property
lines
Roberta stated her concerns about in the future when the area goes
Commercial, and It is hard for large trucks to get down the alley's etc and
the pOSSible demolition of a new garage
Ray Kent stated that he feels that the Fitzgerald's undoubtedly have thought
about the consequences and It IS their Investment, they are the only lot In
that area Without a garage and they should be able to take advantage of a
Varrance and take the rrsk If they so desire
Joe Huddleston asked If there were any more comments or questions?
There were none The publiC hearing was closed at 4 44 P m
MOTION BY E.J. CURRY, SECONDED BY ED PITTS TO FORWARD THIS
VARIANCE PROPOSAL ONTO THE CITY COUNCIL FOR THEIR FINAL
APPROVAL. CARRIED

Joe Huddleston opened the publiC hearrng at 4 45 P m Joe asked the
Planning Commission members if there was any conflict of interest? There
was none Joe asked the audience if there was any conflict of Interest With
any of the Planning Commission members present? There was none Joe
then stated for the record that he and the applicant, John Huddleston are
not related
Cathie Carlson passed out copies of a letter she received from the
Caldwell's of Fox Hill Road, the letter states that they are concerned about
groundwater, the Y-2 project and this project (SUB-8168) The Caldwell's
feel that this Preliminary Plat project should be put on hold until the Y-2

corndor IS established Cathie stated that under the current development
regulations and zoning code, their request is not an option for consideration
Cathie then gave her staff report on the project: Applicant is John
Huddleston, proposal is a 29 Lot Single Family Preliminary Plat located on
the West side of Mill Road, just South of Mill Pond School There will be
three phases of the project, Phase 1 - including 18 reSidential lots and all
Infrastructures/storm water Improvements necessary for total build-out of the
project. A final recording of the plat for Phase 2 & 3 IS subject to the
successful upgrade of the Sewer Treatment Plant plus other conditions
Cathie explained the "Open Space" chapter and stated that Mr Huddleston
has opted to pay the "fee in lieu of' to the city in the amount of $15,93207,
rather than provide the required Open Space Cathie explained the water,
sewer and storm water conditions Cathie recommended that project SUB-
8168 "Mill Circle" be approved With the conditions as stated In the staff
report.
Joe Huddleston asked if there were any questions?
John Huddleston (applicant) asked about the required residential access
between Mill Road and to the site John wants to verify that in the future if
other property owners adjoin to the city sewer, water and/or streets which
service this project (SUB-8168) that they will then be responsible for a
latecomers fee?
Cathie Carlson stated that It IS her understanding that a latecomers fee can
be administered for utilities but not for the streets Cathie said that a
condition of approval can be included, but she will find out for sure before
the next city council meeting
John Huddleston then asked if the "fee in lieu of' for payment Instead of the
dedicated Open Space, can the total amount due be paid by phase?
Cathie stated that yes thiS can be done The acreage size of each phase
will be calculated and that amount will be due at the completion of each
phase
John H. stated that since Phase 2 & 3 are subject to the successful upgrade
to the Sewer Treatment Plant, he wondered about any additional ERU's, If
they are not used and are available could they be used In thiS project?
Cathie stated that under current policy, all ERU's have been allocated If a
change In policy occurs, the applicant can request an amendment to the plat.

Bob Jones stated that rather than uSing the "subject to the successful
upgrade" Bob suggested uSing the wording "subject to the availability of
ERU's" and then they could be used as they become available?
Cathie stated that she could call the city attorney to talk with him about thiS
John H. stated that currently Washington Natural Gas (WNG) IS not In the
area of the proposed project, but because of thiS proposed project and the
Interest of the Fire Dept. WNG say that there will be enough to warrant them
coming out now
Joe Huddleston asked for some clanfication on the Right-of-Way, and asked
about an area on the right hand corner of the map
John H. stated that the property In question is owned by another land owner,
and If they choose to develop In the future, appropriate space has been left
for them to do so
Ed PittS Inquired about the Open Space - "fee in lieu of' issue
Cathie explained the Open Space ordinance, and what the "fee In lieu of'
condition entails The fee(s) collected go directly into the Parks Dept. to be
spent In an existing city park or towards the Improvement or development of
another city park, (i e Cochrane Park) - the fee(s) collected must be used
In the same sub-area as the proposed project.
Roberta Lonqmire asked who Will have to do any improvements on Mill
Road?
Cathie stated that the project does not front on Mill Road and the Increased
traffic does not warrant improvements to Mill Rd
Joe H, asked If there were any more questions?
John H. asked about the Sidewalks, and Inquired about the Fire Dept. and
the Mill Pond School not completrng any improvements or sidewalks on Mill
Road, wondered If It had been waived for them?
Cathie stated that the Development Standards were not in place at the time
of those projects (Fire Dept., M P School ) So it was not required then
Joe Huddleston asked if there were any more questions? There were none

5 Public Hearing - Text Amendment
Joe Huddleston opened the public heanng at 5 22 P m Joe asked the
Commission members if there was any conflict of interest? There was none
Joe then asked the audience if there as any conflict to any of the Planning
Commission members present? There was none
Cathie Carlson gave the staff report. The applicant IS the City of Yelm, the
proposal IS for a text amendment to Chapter 1769 of the Yelm Municipal
Code, "Home Occupation" There was a situation which triggered the city
staff to look at this closer and conSider an amendment to the Chapter A
citizen applied for a Home Occupation Business License, and they had a
second residence on the property which had been used as a reSidential
rental The applicant wanted to convert the rental into a home business
The current municipal code reads that a home based business must be
conducted Within the same building that the owner resides In Another issue
that arose from the current language of the code was the allowed square
footage area to be used as a home occupation
Cathie stated that the city denied the applicant the home occupation permit,
the applicant appealed to the City Council The City had the city attorney
draft new language for the municipal code, as attached, and the staff
recommends that the Planning Commission review and approve to forward
It onto the City Council for their review and final approval
Joe H. asked If there were any questions?
Roberta Lonqmlre asked If the new language to the code would allow the
applicant to build a new structure to have a business In?
Cathie stated that she thinks it would, as long as It was Within the permitted
400 sq ft. and the new structure must meet the zoning code

Roberta Lonqmire asked what the current population IS? Cathie stated that
there IS approximately 2,200 people in the city limits, and about 2,400 people
In the urban growth area
Roberta asked Shelly Badger if she had any comments to add to the staff
report? Shelly supports Cathie's findings and feels that the increased staff
time projection IS very accurate
Roberta asked if there were any questions or comments from the publiC?
John Huddleston asked about how the city TIA fee effects the applicant's
responsibility to provide the city With a TIA.
Cathie explained what could happen The applicant is still responsible to
submit a TIA With the project application The information generated by S
Chamberlain & Associates, Inc is the base information for the TIA. If the
City does not generate thiS Information, the applicant's engineer will need to
obtain It or generate it. To ensure all traffic impacts are evaluated equally
It IS necessary to always start with the same base information
Mr. Huddleston then inquired about the 100-200% increase in work, will the
city add more people/additional staff?
Cathie stated that she has already increased her hours per week and has
had some other office help dedicated to the planning department, but
application fees are not Intended to cover 100% of city cost to review an
application
(Tom Gorman arnved at 4 30 pm )
Mark Carpenter started out by saYing that he appreciates everything that
Cathie Carlson has done Mr Carpenter inquired about the difference
between fees and revieWing plat applications with the City of Yelm and other
jurisdictions

the public There were none The public hearing was then closed at 4 40
pm Roberta then turned the meeting over to Chairman Tom Gorman

Ed Pitts asked Cathie why some cities were used on the comparison chart
and not others?
Cathie Carlson stated that the cities used on the chart were relatively close
in population size and are experiencing similar growth pressures
Ed Pitts asked Cathie If she worked out a comparison between the proposed
fees and the current ones to see If there would be a significant change In
revenue?
Cathie stated that what she did was take each individual application and she
figured the staff and time that It would take to process each, that IS how she
came to the projected 100-200% increase In staff time
Ed PittS asked If the Increased revenue from the raised fees will cover the
costs of the 100-200% Increase In staff time? Cathie said no, It will cover
about 35-50% of the total cost to process a project. Cathie stated that It IS
really hard to analyze this as a whole, each application IS so Individual
Roberta Lonqmire asked for an explanation about the differences in fees
being raised, some are raised three to five times (300-500%) not 100-200%
as the staff report says
Cathie explained that there are a couple reasons for the higher fee
Increases, the first one being that the fee schedule has not been revised or
increased for 2% years, the 100-200% Increase IS based on her relative
expenence since she has been with the city, in essence we are trYing to
make up for back time, or the inflation, wages, administration and staff time -
all of which have Increased significantly in 2% years
Cathie stated that she will go back and look at each individual application
and do some more research into the fee Increases and how the Increase
pertains to each
Shellv Badqer added that she helped with the Initial fee schedule years ago,
and the detail analysis and specific research into each type of application
was not done back then, so what IS happening now is, fee's that were not
raised very much or at all to observe the growth pressures of that time- now
seem much higher with these proposed fee Increases
There was more discussion about the proposed fee changes Cathie and
Shelly both explained more about the difference in cost and time etc
Cathie stated that she feels she was very conservative with the estimates

Ken Garmann also noted that included In the Short Plat process are costs
incurred from survey, bUilding inspections, englneenng, attorney fees, utility
checks etc
Tom Gorman asked Cathie If she would calculate all of the fee's paid on all
proJects done In 1995, and then use the same projects/applications With the
new proposed fees to compare
Cathie stated that this can be done for the next planning commission
meeting
E.J. Curry asked If there will ever be a large lot sub-division?
Cathie stated in our residential zoning (R-4), we do not have a minimum

Date June 10, 1996
To! Yelm Planmng Commission
From Cathie Carlson, City Planner
Re Development Fee Schedule UptJate
Proposal The City of Yelm IS proposing to update the development fesschedule for
land useappllcptlons The l:Ipdc:Jte Includes fee. Increases on approximately 70% of the
City's Land Use Applications The last Item on the enclosed table, TIA DCitacmd
DesIgn Review Included with Binding Site Plan/SPR, are new categories
Background The Dev~lopment Fee SchedUle was last updated In January of 1993,
Resolution 276 (attached) Fee schedules from other JUrisdictions were used to
analyze the various fees The comparison data was obtained from a Tax and User Fee
Survey conducted by the AssocIatIon of Washington Cities in 1994
The last Item on the .attached table, TIA Data, IS a new itellJ Project proposais which
meet the traffic Impact threshold as identified In the ComprehensIve Transportc::ition
Plan"must prepare a Traffic Impact Study and Analysis (TIA) Tq ensure all TIA's are
developed uSing the same base information It IS necessary to extract eXIsting traffic'
counts ancl distribution data frqm the modeling program uSE!d to develop the
Transportation Plan The scope of the data for each proposed use is' speyific to' its land
use Intensity and the project location within the City The actual cost incurred by the
City to generate this Information range~ between $50000 - .$65000
If the City Council adopts the propo~ed design gUidelines, all site plan review
applications will be required to complywlth the' design guidelines On thea.ttached
table, staff has proposed fees for Site Plan Review which include the Design' Review
element. This allows the fees to be on a sliding scale, which accounts for the varied
review times, based on a proJects size and intensity
Thecproposedfees are not intended to cover staff and administrative costs to process
an application Development fees tYPically offset City <:tests In a range of 35% - 50% of
the total costs to the City

Conclusions
The last development fee increase was 2 % years ago With the new comprehensh.{e
plan, zonrng code, development guidelines and other GMA implementation tools,
proJect review IS more technical ahd time consuming
With the adoption of the new zoning code and upcoming design gUldelmes I estimate
that the time necessary to process'a site plan review Witt} design gUidelines could
Increase by approximately 100% with some review Increasing by as much as 200%
The current Fee ScHedule states on the bottom of the page "comblned'multlple
applications submitted concurrently are discounted by 50% for all fees other than the
highest Individual application fee" This is a good policy for some of the applications
which the review wo.uld overlap Applications for EnVironmental ReView and
Annexation requires the same amount of effort and review process regardless of any
other applications which Would be considered on a particular site
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends the Planning Commission approve, and forward to the City Council
for approval and adoption, the. Yelm Developm-ent Fee Schedule as follows ,
1 Amend the multiple application credit to read
"Combined multiple applications, excluding environmental revieW
and annexations, submitted concurrently are discounted by 50%
for all fees other than the highest Individual application fee"
2 Modify the application fees to reflect the proposed fee schedule as

c
Joe Huddleston stated that this will be the fourth
session of the continued public hearing on the Design
Guidelines Mr Huddleston then opened the public
hearing at 4 05 pm, and asked if there were any further
comments, input or discussion?
Cathie Carlson talked again of the 12 foot sidewalks and
pointed out the areas on the large map
Roberta Lonqmire asked how the street/sidewalk would be
designed and what happens when it meets a 5 ft sidewalk?
Cathie stated that there would still be the same width of
street right-of-way and in the 12-ft area's it will be
sidewalks with a few trees planted occasionally When it
gets to the skipped area, the sidewalk will taper down to
a 5-ft with an Il-ft planter strip
Shelly Badqer stated that as the SW Yelm Annexation area
develops, this area is going to be the "Hub" because it
will be the area where most of the cars come and park,
the goal is to get them to stop and have the people out
of their cars and walk back and forth between the shops
etc taking advantage of the nice sidewalk areas

Cathie showed urban arterial area consists of a 17 ft
stormwater and 5 ft sidewalk area Staff would probably
have to use discretion on each project
Roberta stated that the Vision Committee should have used
the same zoning designations from the very beginning,
otherwise it is going to be very confusing
Shelly agreed that it may be somewhat confusing The
design guidelines provide a matrix to help applicants and
staff determine which guidelines apply to each project
The city has already held two Pre-Sub's and they have
already let the applicants know about the new document
It may take a while, but it will work
Joe Huddleston asked if there were any more comments?
There were none, and Mr Huddleston closed the public
hearing at 4 20pm
Adam Rivas stated that he would be abstaining from the
voting, because of his involvement with the city council,
and he will be voting on the Design Guidelines as a
council member at the second council meeting in June

discussion
Lyle Sundsmo stated that he supports this idea, but
unfortunately from now until around September he will not
be able to promise his attendance, because of his added
duties at LASCO
Roberta stated that she would like to see the planning
commission grant Lyle some sort of "leave of absence" if
he can not make a meeting
Cathie Carlson stated that the "rules" say that action is
not taken unless a member misses two consecutive meetings
without excuse So Lyle would be fine

To Planning Commis~ion
From Cathie Carls~~'
Re Design Guidelines
The Planning Commission sub~committee met with the Chamber Vision Corpmittee.in
late March The meeting was very successful. with the group reaching consensus on
the following revisions
1
Sidewalks Widths - Originally the text in this section was' deleted in its entirety
because it conflicted with the development standards Upon disdus~ion and
refinement it was re-'added 12' sidewalk widths will be required on all
pedestrian-oriented streetsPedestrian.,oriented streets are limited with the
majority being locat,ed in, the central business district (CBD), A nlap or a
detailed list of affected sidewalk areas will be included' in the design guidelines.
(map/list should be ready by Monday's hearing ) The str~et standards in the
development guidelines will need to be revised to reflect the 12' widths for
those streefsdesignated pedestrian-oriented AttacHed is the current cross '
secti0n for a street in the CBD with the changes that would ,be necessary to
accomplish a 12' sidewalk. The end result is that all street sections can be
modified'toaccomplish a 12' sidewalk without requiring the applicant to
dedicate additional public right-of-way
2 Pedestrian Amenities .:In the original draft, pedestrian amenities was a sub-
section found in' Chapter II! Pedestrian Access In the attached revised Version,
Guideline" .D (1) which addresses weather protection was relocated to
Guideline 1 A (1), page 4, as one of ten pedestrian amenities the applicant can'
those from Guideline II D (2) which a9dressed pedestrian friendly building
facades was also relocated to Guideline 1 A (1) page 1 '
3
, Pedestrian Plaza and Areas - Originally wa~ deleted because the 5ub7"
committee understood these areas and plazas as. additional improvements and
dedications that would be required ot an applicant. Upon discussion with the
Vision Committee the intent of this section was to address properties which
*
Recycled paper
I
~.~-~-~,~ ~--~--~~- .-'"---
c
c
c
have "un-used areas" located on the lot between the public-right-of-way and the
building Property owners would not be required to provide this area unless
the placement of the building creates an "un-used" area Typically those "un-
used" areas would require landscaping per the code and these pedestrian
areas and plaza's can be incorporated at that time Pedestrian Activity Areas
and Plazas has been re-added in its entirety
4
Side and Rear Yard Compatibility - This Section was significantly edited to
comply with the current development guidelines and re-added on Page 9 of the
enclosed draft.
From the staffs perspective the revised design guidelines provide clear intent and
guidelines for project review Administratively the implementation of design guidelines
will likely add one week to the overall review of a project. Currently Site Plan Review,
including an environmental determination, is taking approximately 6 weeks
Considering the complexity of project review a 7 - 8 week approval time is considered
a very quick turn around time by most jurisdictions and applicants
The staff supports the proposed design guidelines as presented

To Real Estate Industry
From Cathie, carlSO~y Planner
Re N.ew Sign Code
The YelmCity Council recently adopted a new sign code Which will go into effect on April 24, 1996
I would like to bring to your attention a particular section of the code that addresses Real Estate
Signs
In Section 1524 090 Temporary Signs, Real Estate Signs are addressed under the letter D
(attached) Please read and become familiar with this section In particular, 0-2, limits the use of
directional open ,house signs to daylight hours on weekends, only
In the past the City has experienced difficulty with the placement and removal of signs Many times
.directional signs have been placed in the public right-.of-waycreating a safety hazard fqrpedestrlans
anq.autos In addition, signs are not always retrieved which creates additional safety hazards and
in the long term creates unsightly areas as the signs begin to deteriorate
Initially the proposed sign code did not allow any off-site directional open house signs After much
discussion the City Council decided to allow off-site' directional openh.ouse signs during daylight
hours and on weekends only The Council has instructed City sfaff to monitor the use of 0pen
house signs for a, period of three months Following the three month trialper,iod the Council will
revisit the issue of off-site directional signs
I
There are two things that you can do to support the continuation of off.,site open h,ouse directional
signs
1 When placing a sign please consider its location in respect to pedestrian and auto safety
2 Please remove your open house sign$at the end ot' your open house, even If It IS on a
Saturday and you are p'lanning another open house the following day
We thank you in advance for your assistance If you haVe any questions, I can be reached at
458-8408

By March 31, 1996, each local government must pass regulations which m-andate the

CHAPTER 1860 - ATTACHED
Chapter 18 50 - Procedures, would be a new Title of the Yelm Municipal Code By
Qlassifying permits by Type (e g all Legislative decisions would be a Type IV procedUrE?)
it provides a one-stop reference for the permit and appeal process Currently for each
permit process (e g subdivision, site plan review, variance) an applicant would go to the
applicable zoning chapter or ordinance to find the procedure for processing an application
or to file an appeal When more than one zoning chapter or ordinance is involved in a
project, the application review process can become confusing very quicl<ly
,
Chapter 18 50 organizes all permit processes into four types ministerial, administrative,
quasHudicial and legislative Ea<:;h type of procedure sets forth the time frames in which

to address and comply with the following mandates of ESHB 1724
c
Project review process must comply with the following
a Within 28 days of receiving a project permit application the City must
notify the applicant in writing if the application is complete If the
application is incomplete the City must identify the additional information
necessary for completeness Once the applicant submits the requested
information the City must notify the applicant within 14 days whether the
application is now complete or if additional information is still necessary
b Once an application is complete, a final decision must be issued within
120 days
c Within 14 days of an application being determined complete, the City
must provide a notice of application to the public and to the agencies
and departments with jurisdiction The notice must contain a description
of the proposed project, a list of the project permits not included in the
application, identification of existing environmental documents and
studies that evaluate the proposed project, the dates of the public
comment period, the 11earing (if applicable), and a statement of the
preliminary determination of those development regulations which will be
used for project mitigation and consistency
d If an open record predecision hearing is required and the City's threshold
determination requires public notice, the threshold determination must be
issued a least fifteen days prior to the open record predecision hearing
e The City must adopt procedures for administrative interpretation of their
development regulations

integrated and consolidated review and decision on two or more project
permits relating to a project action

EHSB 1724 is comprised of nine parts
Part I -
Part II -
Part III -
Part IV -
Part V -
Part VI -
Part VII -
Part VIII -
Part IX -
Growth Management Act
State Environmental Policy Act
Shoreline Management Act
Local Permit Process
Development Agreements
State Permit Coordination
Appeals
Study
Miscellaneous
Part I - Growth Management Act
. Establishes a means by which cities and counties will "docket",
Le , compile and maintain a list, of suggested plan or development
regulation amendments and consider them during the annual
amendment process
.
The permitting process is not to be used as a substitute for the
comprehensive planning process.
o
. Cities and counties must include in their development regulations a
procedure for any interested person to suggest plan or development
regulation amendments.
. Goals and policies of a city or county's shoreline master program
become an element of the comprehensive plan.
· Special consideration must be given to measures which preserve and
enhance anadromous fisheries.
e Public participation programs must be developed for proposed
amendments or revisions to the comprehensive plan
.. Appeals of Hearing Board decisions may now be filed in any superior
court, instead of only the Thurston County superior court.
The "Growth Management Planmng and Environmental Review Fund"
is established to make grants to local governments to help pay for
detailed environmental impact statements which are integrated with
comprehensive or subarea plans and development regulations.
.
c
Part II - State Environmental Policy Act
.
This part states the underlying rationale for SEPA/GMA integration
reflected in our SEPA/GMA workbook, reported in our progress report
to the Legislature in December 1994, implemented by recent changes
to the SEPA rules, and addressed in SIX pilot projects conducted by
local government in 1994-95 Call us for any of these materials
o
. Proposed projects should receive environmental review which is
integrated in a single project review process
Part III - Shoreline Management Act
. Reaffirms the cooperative program of shoreline management between
local government and the state
. An excellent summary of this part has been published In the Spring
1995 Issue of Coastal Currents available from the Department of
Ecology
Part IV -
Local Permit Process
.
The project review process must integrate land use and environmental
impact analysis.
o
. Project review is based on the fundamental land use planning choices
made in the community comprehensive plan and development
regulations
. Project review should not require additional studies or mitigation where
existing regulations have adequately addressed a proposed project's
probable adverse environmental impacts
. Consistency in the project review process is determined by considering
four factors found in applicable regulations or plans The type of land
use allowed; the level of development allowed, infrastructure, and the
character of the proposed development. Projects consistent with
adopted plans and regulations should enjoy greater certainty
. By March 31, 1996, each local government must pass regulations
which mandate the combining of the environmental review process
with the review of project permits, and provide for no more than one
open record hearing and one closed record appeal.

completelJess)~ Once the applicant submits the additional information
(if any) identified by the local government as necessary for
completeness, the local government must notify the applicant within
fourteen days whether the application is now complete or if additional
information is still necessary
c
· Once an application is complete, a final decision must be issued within
one hundred twenty days.
· Within fourteen days. following the determination that the application is
complet~,!:,t~~-.1~2_~I.gov.:.ernment must provide a notice of application to
the public and to the agencies and '.departments~with jurisdiction The
notice must contam a description of the proposed project, a list of the
project permits included in the application, identification of other
permits not included m the application, identification of existing
environmental documents and studies that evaluate the proposed
project, the dates of the public comment period, the heanng (if
applicable), and a statement of the prellmmary determmatlon of those
development regulations which will be used for project mitigation and
consistency
o
.
Except for a determination of significance, the local government may
not issue its threshold determination, or issue a decision or a
recommendation on a project permit until the expiration of the public
comment period
. If an open record predecision hearing is required and the local
government's threshold determination requires public notice, the
threshold determination must be issued at least fifteen days prior to
the open record predecision hearing.;
. All state and local agencies must cooperate to the fullest extent
possible with the local government in holding a joint hearing if
requested to do so
. A local government is not required to provide for administrative
appeals
o
. All local governm~nts planning under 36.70A.040 must adopt
procedures for administrative interpretation of their development
regulations."
.
All local governments planning under 36 70A 040 must establish a
permit review process that provides for the integrated and
consolidated review and decision on two or more project permits
relating to a project action
o
. Local governments not planning under 36 70A 040 may incorporate
some or all of the provisions relating to integrated and consolidated
permit review
. A local government IS not liable for damages if it fails to make a final
decision within the one hundred twenty day period following
notification to the applicant that the application is complete
. The legislative body of the city or county may adopt a hearing
examiner system as an alternative to the planning commission for the
purpose of hearing and reporting on any proposal to amend a zOning
ordinance, when the zoning change is not of general applicability, as
well as those other issues it beheves should be reviewed and decided
by a hearing examiner
e Sole authority to approve final plats, and to adopt or amend platting
ordinances will reside in the legislative bodies
.
The Department of Community, Trade and Economic Development will
provide technical assistance to local communities in developing local
permit processes which comply with these new regulations
o
Part V -
Development Agreements
/I A local government may enter into a development agreement with a
person having ownership or control of real property within its
jurisdiction.
. A development agreement sets forth the development standards and
other provisions that apply to and govern and vest the development,
use, and mitigation of the development of the real property for the
duration specified in the agreement
fa During the term of the agreement, it is binding on the parties and their
successors.
.
A development agreement may not be subject to an amendment to a
zoning ordinance or development standard or regulation or a new
zoning ordinance or development standard adopted after the effective
date of the agreement
o
· There must be a public hearing before a local government can approve
a development agreement.
c
Part VI -
State Permit Coordination
· The Permit Assistance Center is established within the Department of
Ecology
. An administrative process will be established for designating a
coordinating permit agency for a project, which will ensure that the
applicant has all the information needed to apply for the component
permits that are incorporated in the coordinated permit process for the
project, coordinate the review of those permits by the respective
participating permit agencies, ensure that timely permit decisions are
made by the participating permit agencies, and assist in resolving any
conflict or inconsistency among the permit requirement and conditions
that are to be Imposed by the participating permit agencies with regard
to the project
. If an applicant requests, the Permit Assistance Center will designate a
coordinating permit agency.
.
Within twenty-one days of the date that the coordinating permit
agency is designated, the permit agency will convene a meeting with
the project applicant and the participating permit agencies to discuss
required permits, application requirements, and timelines
c
. The applicant may withdraw from the coordinated permit process at
any time
. The applicant may request at any time that a participating permit
agency withdraw from participation in the process on the basis of a
reasonable belief that the issuance of the coordinated permit would be
accelerated by the agency's withdrawal.
Part VII -Appeals
. The writ of certiorari for appeal of land use decisions is replaced by
filing a land use petition in superior court.
. The petition is timely if it is filed and served on all identified persons
within twenty-one days of the issuance of the land use decision
-\
U
.
The court is required to provide expedited review of land use petitions,
and the matter must be set for hearing within sixty days of the date
set for submitting the local jurisdiction's record
· Reasonable attorneys' fees and costs will be awarded to the prevailing
party or substantially prevailing party before the court of appeals or
the supreme court
Part VIII - Study
· The Land Use Study Commission, consisting of eleven members
appointed by the governor and the three directors (or director
designees) of the Departments of Community, Trade and Economic
Development, Transportation, and Ecology, IS created to Integrate and
consolidate the state's land use laws into a single, manageable
statute
Part X - Miscellaneous
.
The sections of the act which create the Land Use Study Commission
are declared necessary for the immediate preservation of the public

This chapter describes how the city will process appllcations
for development subject to review under the followlng chapters of
the Yelm Municipal Code

2 Tltle 16 - (Land Dlvisions)
3 Chapter 15-48 - (Development Guidelines)
4 Chapter 14 08 - (Critical Areas Resource Lands
18.600.020 Application tvpesand classification.
A Applications for review pursuant to Section 18 600 010 of
this chapter shall be subject to a Type I, Type II, Type III or
Type IV process
B Unless otherwise required, where the city must approve
more than one application for a glven development, all applications
required for the development may be submltted for reVlew at one
time Where more than one (1) application is submitted for a given
development, and those applications are subject to different types
of procedure, then all the applications are subject to the highest-
number procedure that applies to any, of the appllcations
C If this code expressly provides an application is subject
to one of the four types of procedures or another procedure, then
the applicatlon shall be processed accordingly If this code does
not expressly provide for review using one of the four types of
procedures, and another specific procedure is not required by law,
the review authority for the application in questlon shall classify
the applicatlon as one of the four types of procedures
1 The act of classifying an applicatlon shall be a
Type I action Classification of an application shall be subject
to reconsideratlon and appeal at the same time and In the same way
as the merits of the application in question
2 Questions about what procedure is appropriate shall
be resolved In favor of the type provldlng the greatest notice and
opportunity to particlpate
1
c
c
o
3 The review authority shall consider the following
guidellnes when classifying the procedure type for an application
a A Type I process involves an application that
is subject to clear, objective and nondiscretionary standards or
standards that require the exercise of professional judgment about
technical issues
b A Type II process involves an application that
lS subject to objective and subjective standards that require the
exercise of llmited discretion about nontechnical issues and about
which there may be a limited public interest
c A Type III process involves an application for
relatively few parcels and ownerships It is subject to standards
that require the exercise of substantial discretion and about which
there may be a broad public interest
d A Type IV process involves the creation,
implementation or amendment of policy or law by ordinance In
contrast to the other three procedure types, the subject of a Type
IV process applies to a relatively large geographic area containing
many property owners, and an application subj ect to a Type IV
process can be filed only by the city
18.600.030 Pre-application review.
A The purposes of pre-application review are
1 To acquaint city staff with a sufficient level of
detail about the proposed development to enable staff to advise the
applicant accordingly,
2 To acquaint the applicant with the appllcable
requirements of this code and other law However, the conference
is not lntended to provide an exhaustive review of all the
potential issues that a given application could raise The pre-
application review does not prevent the city from applying all
relevant laws to the appllcation, and
3 To provide an opportunl ty for other agency staff and
the public to be acqualnted with the proposed application and
applicable law Although members of the public can attend a pre-
applicatlon conference, it is not a public hearing, and there is no
obligation to receive public testimony or evidence
B Pre-application review is required for Type II or III
appllcations, unless
1 This code or the planning director expressly exempts
the application(s) in question from pre-application review, or
2 The applicant submlts a completed form provided by
the reVlew authorlty requesting waiver of pre-application review
The form shall state that waiver of pre-application review
increases the maximum time for review for technically complete
status and lncreases the risk the appllcation will be rejected or
processing will be delayed Pre-application review generally
should be waived by the director only if an application is
relatively simple, as determined by the review authority
C To initiate pre-application review, an applicant shall
submit a completed form provided by the review authority for that
purpose, and all information required by the relevant sectlon(s) of
2

o
this code or recommended in writing by the review authority for the
pre-application in question and other relevant information The
applicant shall provide five (5) copies of all information larger
than eight and one-half (8~) by eleven (11) inches or smaller The
review authority may limit the day of the week on which an
application is deemed accepted
D Information not provided on the form shall be provided on
the face of the preliminary plat, in an environmental checklist or
on other attachments The planning director may modify
requirements for pre-application materlals and may conduct a pre-
application review wlth less than all of the required information
However, failure to provide all of the required information may
prevent the planning director from identifying all applicable
issues or providing the most effective pre-application review
E The pre-application conference shall be scheduled within
ten (10) working days after the review authority accepts the
application for pre-application review
F Within flve (5) worklng days after the date of the pre-
application conference, the review authority shall mail to the
applicant a written summary of the pre-application review The
written summary generally shall do the followlng to the extent
possible given the information provided by the applicant
1 Summarize the proposed application(s) ,
2 Identify the relevant approval criteria and
development standards in this code or other applicable law and
exceptions, adjustments or other variations from applicable
criteria or standards that may be necessary,
3 Evaluate lnformation the appllcant offered to comply
with the relevant criteria and standards, and identlfy speclfic
addltional information that is needed to respond to the relevant
cri teria and standards or is recommended to respond to other
issues,
4 Identify applicable application fees In effect at
the time, with a disclaimer that fees may change,
5 Identify lnformation relevant to the application
that may be in the possession of the county or other agencies of
wHich the county is aware, such as
a Comprehensive plan map designation and zoning
on and in the vicinity of the property subject to the application,
b Physical development limitations, such as steep
or unstable slopes, wetlands, well head protection areas, or water
bodies, that exist on and in the vicinity of the property subject
to the application,
c Those public facilities that will serve the
property subject to the application, including fire services,
roads, storm drainage, and, if residential, parks and schools, and
relevant service considerations, such as minimum access and flre
flow requirements or other minimum service levels and impact fees,
and
d Other applications that have been approved or
are being considered for land in the viclnlty of the property

towards the automobile more and more Ms
like to see the Design Guidelines make
safer for the pedestrians in Yelm
be ing pushed
Blalack would

c
Margaret Clapp stated that she has participated in the
Vision Process from the beginning and she thanked the
sub-committee for all their work Ms Clapp also stated
that she will help in any way possible if the committee's
decide to proceed with more meetings
Steve Craiq spoke for himself and on behalf of John
Huddleston, in support of making the City of Yelm a
quality place to live and do business Mr Craig stated
that Mr Huddleston and himself are concerned over the
Pedestrian section of the Guidelines
Tom Gorman asked if there were any more comments Being
none, he then asked the audience if there were any
specific areas to be dlscussed
o
Steve Craiq talked about sidewalk widths, and the idea of
having trees along sidewalks Frances Andrews stated
that 12' sidewalks may sound exceSSlve, but feels the
larger sidewalks are inviting and attract tourists, and
more business Steve Craiq asked why the Pedestrian
Amenities were deleted
Jocel yn Eastland inquired about what "makes something
pedestrian oriented?" Ms Eastland also asked about
other pedestrian safety issues Steve Craiq questioned
the "swales" issue in the downtown area
Joe Huddleston suggested the sub-committee meet again
with representatives from the vision committee to go over
the issues Tom Gorman stated that he will get together
with Cathie Carlson and the sub-committee to go over the
main areas of concern and he asked Cathie to explain a
few of the changes and/or deletions now
Cathie Carlson stated that the 12' sidewalks as proposed
are inconsistent with the Yelm Development Guidelines
Typical sidewalk widths under current guidelines are 5'
She illustrated on the white board an example of typical
street section that consist of driving lanes, planter
strips and sidewalks The sub-committee is concerned
that by requiring 12' sidewalks the right-of-way
dedication required for property owner to develop a site
would be excessive

Steve Craiq asked about weather protectors, awnings and
canopies Cathie Carlson addressed this by saYlng that
the subcommittee felt that requiring awnings may be to
excessive Cathie stated that awnings are addressed in
the sign code
Steve Craiq would like awnings at a minimum left in the
design guidelines as encouraged Jocelyn Eastland asked
about "giving guidelines or options rather than
regulations" Cathie Carlson stated that much of the
"option" language was retained in the design guidelines
Shelly Badqer emphasized that she liked the idea of
"options," and at the various sub-committee meetings she
encouraged the "opt ions" language to be kept in If
possible, from a staff or administrative perspective, she
would like to see more "choices" allowed in the
guidelines It would be a mandate with choices
Roberta Lonqmire feels that choices are both effective
and beneficial, especially to contractors She also
stated that she thought the drawings were very helpful in
the design guidelines, because they offer different
ideas
Tom Gorman asked Cathie to address how the sub-
commi t tee's addressed pedestrian plaza and areas Cathie
Carlson stated that the subcommittee was concerned about
requiring a applicant to provide for public spaces She
suggested that the plaza's or activity centers may be an
appropriate function of the Yelm Parks Department There
is some funding received from part of the city's open
space ordinance that could possibly be utilized to fund
those purchases and improvements There was more
dlScussion
Steve Craiq stated that he feels the sidewalks and
business fronts should be more pedestrian friendly
Joe Huddleston expressed a concern for the "flip-side" of
that matter Joe stated that there are many buslness
that do not want pedestrians loitering in front of their
business Jocelyn Eastland had questions about ingress
and egress access
Tom Gorman stated that the Planning Commission will
consider making a recommendation to the City Council
which states the Planning Commission's recommendations
with possible variations for those issues that the Vision
Committee and the Planning Commission do not reach a
consensus on

Sign Code Worksession
Cathie Carlson reported on updates made following the
last meeting Jerry Prock found that the City of
Tumwater has dropped their fee violation program because
of difficulties administering the program Tom Gorman
asked if the whole section on violations would have to be
deleted More discussion ensued between commisslon
members
Tom Gorman stated that A and B of Section 15 24 260
should be left in, but do not include a schedule of
fines To establish penalties, add language regarding
state statute on misdemeanors
Other changes included, on Page 16, A-#6, under continued
use of special event signs - the wording shall be changed
to include "special event signs such as banners, which
were purchased prior to the adoption date of this code
may be continued until such time the sign is replaced
Proof of purchase date is the responsibility of the
applicant "
Rich Arnold provided Cathie with some information from
WSDOT (WA State Dept of Transportation,) which includes
their criteria for hanging banners across the state
highway right-of-way 20' clearance to the ground, no
obstruction to traffic control signals and a statement of
when, where and how long the banner would be up
Yelm Planning Commission
February 5, 1996
Page 1
c
o
c
The statement would have to be submitted to WSDOT and
obtain an approval from them
Cathie Carlson stated that she also called the City of
Olympia and talked to Greg Walker about banners In the
past the applicant would have utility companies (puget
Power, Cable Co ,etc ) hang the banners, however they
no longer provide this service because of expense
Currently, tree services, sign services or other people
actually licensed in the City of Olympia with the proper
equipment are authorized to hang banners
Cathie also mentioned how the City of Olympia does have
the banners hung, there are only a couple places, one
spot has special poles approved by WSDOT, another is on
a two story building with hook-and-eye hooks
Cathie stated that the City of Yelm does not have
adequate facilities to hang banners from Power poles
would not be an option because of clearance requirements
Tom Gorman stated that the commission doesn't feel that
the City should be taking the initiative or be
responsible for banners It would be different and
easier if there was a dedicated area just for banners
Tom encouraged other interested groups/organizations to
take the initiative to propose a detailed plan and
budget
Rich Arnold volunteered to develop a proposal for
administerlng and funding a program for hanging banners
Cathie Carlson then directed the commission to the last
page, the Grand-Opening, Speclal Event Sign Area Chart -
Tom Gorman asked about the number of buildings that are
35,000 sq ft or more There was little discussion
about this matter, and Cathie Carlson stated that this is
something that the commission can re-visit at a later
date if needed No changes were made to the chart at
this time
Roberta Lonqmire asked about the difference in the amount
of time that signs can be up for "special events" (37-
days) compared to a "grand opening" (14 days) Pg 9
Cathie Carlson stated that the number of days were the
original numbers proposed There was more discusslon
Adam Rivas asked about the need to limit the length of
time that the temporary signs are up Tom Gorman stated
that by using the time limit, this prohibits the business
Yelm Planning Commission
February 5 1996
Page 2
c
owner from keeping a temporary type sign as a permanent
sign
There was more discussion about the time limit on actual
events and when signs should come down Cathie Carlson
stated that by using the same language from #B in #C on
Pg 9, it eliminates the problem E.J. Curry stated that
a definition of the length of an event is needed
Roberta Lonqmire inqulred about the fact that "special
events" can be held four (4) times a year and a "garage
sale" are only allowed two (2) times a year Cathie
Carlson stated that the garage sale-two a year is by city
ordinance Lyle Sundsmo stated that if people are going
to be in the professional garage sale business, or want
to have more than two sales a year, they should get a
city business license etc There was more discussion
about the difference between garage sales and special
events It was agreed by commission members that special
event signs would be limited to a duration of fourteen
(14) days and to four (4) events per year
c
Tom Gorman asked if there was anything else, Cathie
Carlson re-affirmed the two changes that she will make to
the sign-code Tom stated that he thinks the commission
has done a good job on this, and commended Cathie Carlson
for a job well done
3.
Design Guidelines Worksession
Cathie Carlson stated that the two main principles that
guided the sub-committee's editing were
1) Consistency with zoning code/development guidelines,
and,
2) How much more of an impact is it on the property
owner/developer?
Tom Gorman suggested that the edited version of Design
Guidelines be distributed to the public for comment
before the Commission does any additional revisions
Concern was expressed by Commission members, that a
4 OOpm public hearing prevented people from attending
Tom Gorman asked Cathie to check with members of the
community on the preferred time for a public hearing on
the Design Guidelines and to schedule it accordlngly

Discussion indicated that for two separate, individually
licensed businesses, each business would be permitted to
use the four times per year special event option.
It was acknowledged that temporary signs are generally
not as desirable or aesthetically pleasing as permanent
signs. Members suggested the code allow adoption of some
type of scale to allow grandfathering to permit
businesses that already have signs to continue using
them.
Enforcement lssues were addressed, with Jerry Prock
indicating that he relies on public works, the police
department, etc. to report on conformance areas. The
City has no record of existing signs. Joe Huddleston
suggested that signs be made to conform when they are
replaced.
E.J. Curry questioned if the city could distribute sign
ordinance copies along with business license
applications. Staff agreed that this is possible.
Cathie Carlson indicated that she will investigate
grandfathering language and will add verbiage on page 16
addressing temporary special events signs.
Tom Gorman added that page 11, F's reference to off site
cloth banners across streets was eliminated due to the
liability issues.
Rich Arnold spoke and said that he had been in touch with
Olympia on these issues and that they addressed banners
for nonprofit groups in their ordinance, he requested the
same of Yelm's. He added that banners are permitted in
two or three locations only and that display time had to
be scheduled. He volunteered to oversee scheduling.
Members discussed the number of nonprofit groups in the
city that would display banners; if people would continue
to notice banners if they were displayed all the time;
responsibility for painting and making banners
attractive; and the number of requests received by the
city to display banners;
Adam Rivas and E. J. Curry questioned the legality of
placing banners across a state highway. Joe Huddleston
questioned acceptability of an alternate location if
banners are not permitted across state highways.
Rich Arnold indicated that the first choice would be the
main thoroughfare, but that other locations would be

acceptable and indicated that Greg Walker of Olympia
could supply additional information.
Members discussed problems with installing banners, who
would put the up and take them down; difficulty due to
wind at certain times of the year; and the need to resort
to specially anchored poles at Ft. Lewis
Cathie Carlson reported that she had rewritten Pg. 14, a,
b, c, to allow 1 monument or free standing sign.
Members discussed murals and creating a historic
district. Cathie Carlson reported that she had gathered
some information and that the easiest way to create a
historic district would be as an overlay to the existing
Central Business District. This could be accomplished by
local ordinance. She also suggested that the Historic
Preservation Commission be approached concerning this
matter. Joe Huddleston and Roberta Longmire agreed to
represent the Commission at the next YHP meeting.
Joe Huddleston questioned the link between murals and a
historic district. He believes that murals are
considered art unless they include signagejverbiage.
Jerry Prock reported that off premise real estate signs
are allowed during daylight hours only in both Lacey and
Olympia and that Tumwater and Thurston County don't allow
them at all, although the county doesn't enforce this
policy.
Members discussed incentives to remove signs, possibly
deposits, and manpower to monitor and enforce
requirements. Cathie Carlson will put together language
to address this situation.
3. As the February 19th meeting falls on a holiday members
agreed to meet on Tuesday February 20th.

RE Draft Sign Code
City of feint
105 Yelm Avenue West
PO Box 479
Yelm, Washington 98597
(360) 458-3244
Attached is;the draft s!gn code as revised by the planning commission subcommittee The
underlined text is!anguage added by the subcomm!ttee and the strike through text IS language
whIch was deleted by the subcornmlttee While the draft sIgn code IS very similar to thEl
existing code there are a few significant differences
, ,
Monument Signs in the new code are the preferred signage As an Incentive to encourage
monument signs over free standing signs the code allows more sign area on monument Signs
Please refer to the table in Section 14 25 280, for maximum sign area allowed
The new code eliminates off-premise signs except for directlona,l signs as defined on page 7
and off-site banners or cloth signs as defined on page 11
Another issue which was djscussed extensively by the subcommittee wastheneed to regulate
nwra!s Murals yvhlch include no advertlsmg would be defined as art Art on private property
IS considered free speech and !~ protected by the constitutlor"l if the mural contains sarna
form of advertls;ng then it would be classified as a sign and governed by the sign code as far
as Size but not content One method of regulatmg murals (art) would be through the
designation of "an Historic District Once a History District Was established cnteria and a
method for review of murals would need to be established
The subcommittee felt the issue of regulating murals should be a discussion that occurred
between the entire planning Gommlttee before any direction was taken by the subcommittee
