*The project shall extend frontage improvements to the West along 19th Ave SE to tie into the existing curb line. The frontage improvements shall include curb/gutter, sidewalk, storm and half street paving. The storm improvements shall include removal of any existing facilities that don’t meet current city standards and installation of required facilities for proper drainage.
*Due to the onsite Wetlands the Project is required to meet minimum requirement # 8 of the 2014 ECY SWMMWW. As part of the requirement seasonal high groundwater will need to be determined to have a complete picture of the hydraulics of the Wetlands. Based on this requirement the project shall provide continuous groundwater monitoring through a minimum of one wet season as outlined in the 2014 ECY SWMMWW.
*If changes to existing culvert and control structure within the wetlands are proposed as part of the project the applicant shall obtain all required Army Corp of Engineers and WDFW permits for the alterations and work with the wetlands.
