Mr. Wulfekuhle,
The City of Yelm has received a complaint from the South East Thurston Fire Authority concerning the large bush/tree planted in close proximity to the fire hydrant at the corner of your
property.
Per International Fire Code 507.5.5 :
A 3-foot clear space shall be maintained around the circumference of fire hydrants, except as otherwise required or approved.
Your cooperation will be appreciated by the City of Yelm in the removal of the bush/tree. Yelm Public Works is concerned with safe removal of the tree given the proximity to the water
line to the hydrant. If I can be of assistance or you have any questions please contact me at (360) 458-8407. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Ron Kemp, CBO
Building and Fire Safety Official
