This Mitigated Determination of Non Significance is based on the project as proposed and the impacts and potential mitigation measures reflected in the following environmental documents: ?? Environmental Checklist (April 2005, prepared by Olympic Engineering.) ?? Preliminary Storm Drainage Report (April 2005, prepared by Olympic Engineering.) 2. The City of Yelm has adopted a concurrency management system as required by the Growth Management Act. Chapter 15.40 Yelm Municipal Code (YMC) Concurrency Management is designed to ensure that the improvements required to support development are available at the time of development. A concurrency determination may be issued for a proposal as it relates to transportation issues when: the development provides on-site frontage improvements; the project makes off-site improvements as necessary to provide for the safe movement of traffic; and the project makes a contribution to projects identified the six year transportation improvement program in the form of a Transportation Facilities Charge. 3. Chapter 16.16 YMC requires that the layout of streets provide for continuation of streets existing in adjoining subdivisions. The property to the north and east of this property is affected by the future SR 510 Yelm Loop corridor. Providing a connecting street to those properties is not feasible. The preliminary plat application approved for the adjoining property to the south provides right-of-way for a connecting street to this site. 4. Section 16.16.050 (YMC) states that lots within a residential subdivision shall be designed so that lots adjacent to arterial and collector streets are not allowed direct access. 5. Chapter 14.12 YMC requires the dedication of open space for all residential development. Section 14.12.050 YMC lists four (4) attributes for qualification of open space. The applicant proposes open space to include recreation. 6. The Yelm School District has adopted a school mitigation requirement based on the demand that new residential units create for additional school services and facilities. Additional demands on the school system will be mitigated through the requirement that the developer enter into a mitigation agreement with the District. Mitigation Measures 1. The developer shall mitigate transportation impacts based on the new residential P.M. peak hour trips generated by the project. The Transportation Facility Charge (TFC) shall be based on 1.01 new peak hour trips per residential unit. The proponent will be responsible for a TFC of $757.50 per dwelling unit which is payable at time of building permit. Credit should be given for the existing multi-family dwelling. 2. Prior to final subdivision approval, the developer shall complete the following transportation improvements: a. The east half of Burnett Road shall be improved to City Standards for a Neighborhood Collector along the property frontage. b. All interior streets shall be improved to City Standards for a Local Access Residential. c. The interior street shall be connected to the right-of-way provided to the south, with full street improvements completed to 89th Street. The cost of these improvements shall be the responsibility of the applicant. 3. The driveway entrance to the existing duplex shall be located on the new interior street. 4. Temporary erosion control systems to be approved by the City of Yelm. 5. The developer shall provide at least 5% of total acreage as qualified open space. 6.
