8320 Final punchlist 103103Additional Project Requirements:
During recent open house regarding the City’s proposal to construct a new potable water tank at the Public Works facility, it was brought to our attention that there is a well located
on the Yelm Community Services property. This well, located on a small peninsula of YCS property at the northeastern corner of the site, was thought to be on the neighboring property
owners land.
This well was not shown on the land use application, civil plans, or referenced in the SEPA checklist for the project. Had this required information been present on the documents this
project would have been required to decommission this well, as City of Yelm Code requires. Therefore this well needs to be abandoned and decommissioned at this time. Although this requirement
should have been met prior to occupancy of the structure, the City is willing to consider issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy provided all other requirements are met for
occupancy and a financial guarantee in the amount of 150% of the anticipated cost of decommissioning the well.
