RE: Civil Engineering UPDATED Final Inspection and Punch list Items
Yelm Community Services (SPR-02-8320-YL)
Dear Travis,
On January 23, 2004, the Community Development Department visited the project site and conducted a “final inspection” for the punch list. The following is an updated list with the completion
status of each item.
Site Inspection:
Approx. 20’-30’ feet of the sidewalk located along Crystal Springs Road needs to be replaced. It appears that when the sidewalk was poured someone walked through the concrete when it
was “wet”. Completed
The sidewalk along Crystal Springs Road needs to have soil placed along side the back of walk. There must be at least 1’ of soil even with the top edge of the sidewalk. This is currently
a tripping hazard. Completed
The fences need to be completed on the north property line and a portion of the south property line appears to have blown down in the wind. Completed
The water department needs to complete their final inspection on the water system. Not Completed.
The bollards need to be install on the access roadway for the storm pond. Completed
Closeout Requirements:
The civil engineering as-builts need to be submitted and approved. The original information should be lined out and revisions and changes shown on the plans. Submit 2 copies for review.
Not Submitted
The final Stormwater Report needs to be submitted. Submit 2 copies for review. Not Submitted
The STEP sewer easements and bill of sale need to be submitted. Not Submitted
The water system easements need to be submitted. Not Submitted
The civil engineering inspection fees need to be paid. An invoice will be sent to your office. Not completed
Landscaping comments:
A planter island is missing at the west end of the parking area that is in front of the lawn at the west end of the stormwater pond. This needs to be installed. Completed
The planter boxes are missing in front both of the thrift shop additions. Completed
Additional 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. Status unknown at this time.
Respectfully,
Community Development Department
