Dear Tom:
Per our phone conversation on Wednesday, June 8, 2005, I am writing to clarify the Site Plan Review Conditions of Approval for the Timberland Savings Bank, Yelm Branch addition.
Site plan review is required for the use of land or building for the location of any commercial activity. Exemptions for site plan review and approval are granted when there is no addition
of square feet, no additional tenant, or the expansion is for storage only (future conversion of storage area would require compliance with this chapter.)
The removal of the internal wall and expanding your teller area into that space is an expansion of your commercial use, and does not fall into the exemption listed above.
Timberland Bank has applied for site plan review, which included this expansion, and has been given approval subject to the conditions listed in the Site Plan Approval. The conditions
of approval apply whether you construct all or a portion of your site plan approval.
If you have any further questions, please contact me at (360) 458-8496.
Sincerely,
Tami Merriman
Assistant Planner
