RE: Site Plan Review of Windermere Real Estate Parking Lot Addition
C.O.Y. Project No. CIV-01-8293-YL
Dear Mr. Graver
I have reviewed your civil plan review application submitted September 10, 2001. This letter will serve as the approval for your project. This approval comes will the following conditions
and comments.
Adequate temporary erosion control measures need to be in place to protect the infiltration pond and the adjacent properties before construction begins.
The water treatment swale is going to be partially relocated to add additional parking. The reconfigured swale must be the same length or longer than its original length.
The treatment swale soils must be stabilized immediately after the earthwork is complete. With construction in the fall, the swale must be able to accept water as soon as completed.
This will require sod to be placed in the bottom of the swale and 1 foot on each side. The remainder of the swale can be grass seeded and straw place on the exposed soil area.
The parking area is approved to utilize “grasscrete” type of construction. This will require a 6” sand bed over compacted native material. The decorative blocks will be placed on the
sand bed and backfilled with screened topsoil. The parking area will be seeded with grass seed and maintained by the applicant.
The City of Yelm is not reviewing or approving the usability of the additional parking stalls. It is understood that these stalls will be for employee parking only. Some of the employees
will have difficulty entering and exiting these stalls due to their location. A preconstruction meeting will be required with the contractor, applicant and inspector before construction
is started. This is your responsibility to schedule this meeting with City of Yelm. If you have any questions or concerns please call me at (360) 458-8438.
