The west TDA pre-developed land-use basin (5.213 acres) and post-developed (5.44 acres) basins do not match, this is a difference of about 10,000SF. Per the comment response letter the proposed basin is slightly larger due to grading and site layout. Provide an analysis for matching basins for the pre-developed and post-developed conditions. Comparing different sized basins does meet the intent of minimum requirement #7. [drainage report, pg 40]

You have noted that there is a water easement that crosses through where the landscaping is required on the northern portion of the site along the interior side yard. In the pre-app notes, planning commented that although trees may not be able to be planted here due to the waterline, you would need to substitute trees for adequate shrubbery and other vegetation required in the landscape buffer. Vegetation is required to be planted in this area interior to the site. The minimum distance from underground water, sewer, or storm is 10'. [landscape plans, L0.01]

It appears that this calculation was only done for the trailer parking area. This calculation needs to be made for the entire site as well. Please include on your resubmittal the 10% landscaped minimum for the entire paved area of the site. Please provide calculations on the landscape plans that show that at least 10% of all paved areas are landscaped in accordance with PMC 20.58.005. [landscape plans, L0.01]: In order to further mitigate the impacts of more substantial expanses of paved areas on development sites, the following shall apply: (1) All paved areas of over 10,000 square feet shall have at least five percent of all paved areas landscaped to provide shade to reduce the heat island effect related to paved surfaces, reduce stormwater runoff, improve air quality, provide visual breaks to large paved areas and improve general appearance. Perimeter landscaping shall not be calculated as part of the required amount of internal parking lot landscaping. Internal parking lot landscaping design and spacing shall conform to the “Type IV” landscaping standards contained in the city’s vegetation management standards (VMS) manual. (a) In the event that a project provides 20 percent more than the required minimum number of parking stalls (per PMC 20.55.010) for a specific use or group of uses on a development complex site, or in the event that the total sum of paved areas on a site exceeds 100,000 square feet, at least 10 percent of all paved areas shall be landscaped in accordance with this section and the vegetation management standards (VMS) manual.

Building plans will need to be complete with all building, mechanical, plumbing, energy code items and accessibility requirements that apply to project. The proposed Code Analysis (sheet G0.01) claims the building area been calculated on unlimited area buildings (section 507). Per 507.2.1 reduced open space the minimum reduced shall not be less then 40 feet with 3 conditions. Appears you meet the 3 conditions on sheet A1.10 but the site plan reflects 38 feet to the south property line adjacent to the Union Pacific Railroad. Provide code path how it can be reduced to 38 feet or revise site plan to reflect required 40 feet setback. Two different construction types and occupancies are noted, application notes IIIB, S-1 or S-2 and B and the Site Plan (G0.01) notes VB, S-1, F-1 and B. Acknowledge this preliminary but upon submittal for permits all construction types and occupancy will need to match. Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure are required in place for charging stations per IBC section 429 Washington State amendments for occupancy B square footage and will need to be shown on the plans. None are currently noted in parking calculations or on the site plan. **Note if building permit is applied for after July 1, 2023, the EV parking requirements change to require EV parking provided for all occupancies. Plans will need to be per the applicable codes 2018 adopted February 1, 2021, for all permits. Unless submitted after July 1, 2023, to current state adopted code. All electrical is permitted by the Washington State Department L & I. Accessible parking and access to the public way will be required. For all accessible requirements the City adopted the 2018 IBC / WAC 51-50 and the ICC A117.1-2009 standard. Minimum one electric vehicle charging infrastructure is required to be accessible. **Note if permit is applied after July 1, 2023, there are significate accessibility requirements changes in the code.

Building plans will need to be complete with all building, mechanical, plumbing, energy code items and accessibility requirements that apply to project. The proposed Code Analysis (sheet G0.01) claims the building area been calculated on unlimited area buildings (section 507). Per 507.2.1 reduced open space the minimum reduced shall not be less then 40 feet with 3 conditions. Appears you meet the 3 conditions on sheet A1.10 but the site plan reflects 38 feet to the south property line adjacent to the Union Pacific Railroad. Provide code path how it can be reduced to 38 feet or revise site plan to reflect required 40 feet setback. Two different construction types and occupancies are noted, application notes IIIB, S-1 or S-2 and B and the Site Plan (G0.01) notes VB, S-1, F-1 and B. Acknowledge this preliminary but upon submittal for permits all construction types and occupancy will need to match. Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure are required in place for charging stations per IBC section 429 Washington State amendments for occupancy B square footage and will need to be shown on the plans. None are currently noted in parking calculations or on the site plan. **Note if building permit is applied for after July 1, 2023, the EV parking requirements change to require EV parking provided for all occupancies. Plans will need to be per the applicable codes 2018 adopted February 1, 2021, for all permits. Unless submitted after July 1, 2023, to current state adopted code. All electrical is permitted by the Washington State Department L & I. Accessible parking and access to the public way will be required. For all accessible requirements the City adopted the 2018 IBC / WAC 51-50 and the ICC A117.1-2009 standard. Minimum one electric vehicle charging infrastructure is required to be accessible. **Note if permit is applied after July 1, 2023, there are significate accessibility requirements changes in the code. If VB construction the truss specs will also be required with the truss engineers’ stamps and a layout that matches the submitted plans at the time of submittal. Please reach out to me if I can answer any other questions in relationship to Building code items for this project. No other Building items at this time.
