Building plans will need to be complete with all building, mechanical, plumbing, energy code items and accessibility requirements that apply to project. Effective October 28, 2023 Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure are required in place for charging stations per IBC section 429 Washington State amendments for occupancy R’s and will need to be shown on the plans. **Note July 1, 2023 code changes have been postponed until October 28, 2023, the EV parking requirements change to require EV parking provided for all occupancies except occupancies classified as R-3 and U. Plans will need to be per the applicable codes 2018 adopted February 1, 2021, for all permits. Unless submitted after October 28, 2023, or when States adopts code. (Currently extended from July 1, 2023) 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 October 28, 2023, there are significate vehicle charging infrastructure changes that includes additional accessibility requirements with the changes in the code. If construction includes truss specs they are required with the truss engineers’ stamps and a layout that matches at the submitted of plans. 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.

CIVIL PERMIT APPLICATION • Civil engineering drawings will be required for this project prior to issuance of the first building permit (The city has transitioned to electronic review. Please reach out to the city permit technicians at PermitCenter@PuyallupWA.gov and they will guide you how to submit). Included within the civil design package will be a utility plan overlaid with the landscape architects landscaping design to ensure that potential conflicts between the two designs have been addressed. Engineering plans cannot be accepted until Planning Department requirements have been satisfied, including but not limited to, SEPA, Preliminary Site Plan approval, CUP, and/or Hearing Examiner conditions. • Civil engineering plan review fee is $670.00 (plus an additional per hour rate of $180.00 in excess of 5 hours). The Civil permit inspection fee shall be 3% of the total cost of the project as calculated on the City of Puyallup Engineering Division Cost Estimate form. [City of Puyallup Resolution No. 2098] • Civil Engineering drawings shall conform to the following City standards Sections 1.0 and 2.0: o Engineering plans submitted for review and approval shall be on 24 x 36-inch sheets. o Benchmark and monumentation to City of Puyallup datum (NAVD 88) will be required as a part of this project / plat. o The scale for design plans shall be indicated directly below the north arrow and shall be only 1”=20’ or 1”=30’.

Frontage Code: New Commercial/Industrial Buildings or Expansion of Existing buildings: • Any person or entity who constructs or causes to be constructed any new commercial/industrial building or expansion of an existing commercial/industrial building either of which have a structure improvement value exceeding $200,000 in valuation shall construct curb, gutters, planter strips, street trees, sidewalks, storm drainage, street lighting, and one-half street paving (only required if the existing pavement condition is poor) in accordance with the city’s Public Works Engineering and Construction Standards and Specifications. The frontage improvements shall be required along all street frontage adjoining the property upon which such building will be placed. Frontage improvements shall also be required where any reasonable access to the property connects to the public right-of-way, although the primary access is located on another parcel. There is no cap on frontage improvements for new buildings or expansion of existing buildings. Fee in Lieu -> Frontage Improvements a. The applicant may request and submit justification to pay a fee rather than constructing all or part of the required frontage improvements. Allowance of fee-in-lieu shall be at the discretion of the city and may be denied if the city engineer determines it will be more beneficial to the public to have the frontage improvements built along the street frontage adjoining the property or access to the property. The city will consider the following: o (i) The feasibility of accurately constructing improvements both horizontally and vertically to effectively drain runoff; o (ii) Whether constructed improvements can transition and connect smoothly with existing adjacent sites; and o (iii) Whether other frontage improvements will likely connect into the applicant’s required improvements within a reasonable time frame. b. The justification to allow use of the fee-in-lieu program shall not be based on cost savings to applicant in comparison with constructing required improvement adjacent to the property. The program will be administered with the following conditions: a. (i) Fees collected will be used towards pedestrian safety improvements, which could include lighting in the vicinity, ideally within one-half mile but up to one mile, from the contributing parcel in order to ensure that the improvements maintain a sufficient nexus to the project. b. (ii) Fees for residential infill lots and commercial tenant improvements shall be based on linear frontage of developing parcel. The fees will be posted on the city’s web page, “Fee-In-Lieu Program” and are initially set at $200.00 per linear foot of frontage where no concrete curb exists and $100.00 per linear foot with existing curb. The fees will be adjusted annually according to construction cost indices. The current prices for 2022 are $211.80 per linear foot where no concrete curb exists. $105.90 per linear foot where existing curb exists at city standard location. If use of the fee-in-lieu program is for only a portion of the required frontage improvements, the fee will be established at an adjusted rate by the city engineer. If used for required frontage improvements from land subdivisions (formal plats, short plats, or binding site plans) and new commercial/industrial developments the fee will be developed based on the costs of installing the required improvements along the frontage of the development. c. (iii) The fees shall be capped at 15 percent of remodel or project valuation. d. (iv) Dedication of necessary right-of-way shall not be deferred or satisfied through payment of a fee-in-lieu. e. (v) The city shall track the collection of fees and the location of improvements funded by fees collected.
