CITY OF PUYALLUP PERMITTING PORTAL

PMC 20.80.010 (3) lists required findings to grant a conditional use permit. The third finding stats "That the proposed use is properly located in relation to the other land uses and to transportation and service facilities in the vicinity; and, further, that the use can be adequately served by such public facilities and street capacities without placing an undue burden on such facilities and streets". It is the City's understanding that a significant number of students will be walking across W Main and 7th St NW, during each class passing period, to attend class in the proposed portables and the existing portables at this site and to access classes on the rest of the Puyallup High School campus. Please write a narrative addressing how the newly added portable classrooms meets finding #3 in terms of student pedestrian traffic across these streets during class passing periods.

Provide dimensions for setback from western property line of parcel #5870000190. PF zone requires 20ft setback from this property line, or can be reduced through CUP process. If reducing setback, provide narrative for how reduced setback will meet all four findings of CUP PMC 20.80.010. [Site Plan, sheet AS-100]

Parking Requirements: Parking is required at the rate of one space for each 65 square feet of classroom space, plus one space for each 300 square feet of office space. It is our understanding that this project is being erected to accommodate the demolition of the Library science building. Please provide a summary table that demonstrates the square footage of library science area to be demolished, the number of library science parking space no longer needed and compares the number of parking spaces required for the proposed portable buildings. As long as the number of parking spaces no longer required for the library science building demolition is less than or equal to the number of parking stalls required for the proposed portables, no additional parking stalls will be required to be installed on the campus.

The City of Puyallup does not agree with the stated student capacity identified in the traffic scoping document. Previous documents submitted to the City of Puyallup show the previously approved and constructed phase one master plan assumed student capacity at 1650 students (not 1862 as stated with this submittal). These documents clearly show student capacity was assumed at 1650 for phase 1, and would be built out to 1800 with the full build out of the previously proposed master plan (phase 3). For the purpose of studying traffic impacts, parking requirements, public services, etc. these quantities were clearly assumed by the applicant. For the purposes of future traffic impact analyses and impact fee assessments, base student capacity should be assumed at 1650.

Other/Miscellaneous

The City of Puyallup does not allow the transfer of vehicle trip credits between separate parcels. However, it's understood that the proposed portables will function as part of the overall campus. Will need to discuss how to represent this project as part of the CUP.

The existing pedestrians facilities on 7th St NW are substandard. Please identify mitigation to accommodate additional pedestrian trips.

PLCUP20230109 Clarify if the proposed portables are new or being relocated to site. Note all portables will require the State Label for modular for portables to receive Certificate of Occupancy. State Health Departments approval with documentation to meet their standards will be required with submittal for building permits. https://doh.wa.gov/community-and-environment/schools/school-portables Provide accessible path on site plan to restrooms. Include travel distance to public way and to restrooms to be utilized to support the portables occupant load requirements. Provide floor plan with occupant load to determine restroom requirements per 2018 (or potentially 2021) IBC. Within restroom calculations provide for occupancy load for proposed portables and where students will have access to them. Include current occupant load on restrooms to be used with the proposed that will service new portables for a total count to determine if meets code requirements. Upon submittal of building permit provide: 1) Provide restroom calculations required for portable occupancy load and where students will have access to them. Include current occupant load restroom use with the proposed that will service portables for a total count to determine required total using restroom meet 2018 codes. 2) Provide accessible path including travel distance to public way and to what restrooms will be utilized to support the portables occupant load requirements. 3) On site plan, include all accessible ramps, stairs etc. for new portables, include dimensions. 4) Additional accessible parking may not be required if occupant load for portables will be relocated from existing building to portables (no increase) but show access to the public way on site plan from proposed portable to public way/parking. For all accessible requirements the City adopted the 2018 IBC / WAC 51-50 and the ICC A117.1-2009 standard. 5) Provide engineer seal attachment detail for setting portables, include all seismic requirements. 6) To obtain Certificate of Occupancy portables will require Health Department approval and valid modular label on building.
