Re: Project Number 2019101310 Special Use Permit
Dear Ms. Durden:
Thank you for the opportunity to review the above referenced permit application by South Hill
RV Sales to conduct RV Sales on the property located at 10625 Bald Hill Road SE, Yelm, WA.
As the property is within Yelm’s urban growth area, development should be consistent with the
requirements of the Yelm Unified Development Code as well as Thurston County design
standards.
The property is pre-zoned Low Density Residential upon annexation into the City of Yelm. This
zoning district does not allow commercial development.
Pursuant to Thurston County County-wide Planning Policies, III.3.2(f) Developing, and ensuring
the enforcement of, agreements between Thurston County and the cities and towns within its
borders, that ensure development occurring within unincorporated urban growth areas is
consistent with City utility and storm water planning and conforms to the development
standards and road/street level of service standards of the associated city or town.
In addition to be inconsistent with the Yelm and Thurston County Comprehensive Plans, we
have serious concerns with access, the provision of urban services, and potential impacts to
critical areas.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at tamim@yelmwa.gov.
Sincerely,
Tami Merriman, Associate Planner
Community Development Department
