Signage - See PMC 20.60.060 for all provisions for signs in the FAIR zone.
Facade signs:
- The number of facade signs is unlimited, subject to the maximum allowed size. However, they cannot extend over the roof or roofline of the building it is attached to.
- The maximum area of facade signs are 400 square feet per public street frontage.
- The sign proposed on the canopy would be considered an "under canopy sign" which is permitted in the FAIR zone. Since the sign code provisions for the FAIR zone do not outline a maximum size for under canopy signs, we will apply the maximum facade sign size.
Monument signs:
- 1 monument sign is permitted per street frontage.
- The maximum height of a monument sign is 1 foot above the adjoining finished grade for each foot of setback to a maximum of 10 feet.
- The maximum area of a monument sign is 1 square foot for each lineal foot of street frontage, not to exceed 250 square feet each.
Electronic message signs:
- The electronic message sign proposed is not permitted per zoning code and traffic regulations (see Traffic comments).
- Electronic message signs are limited to 1 sign per site development complex. However, electronic message signs can only be monument type signs.

Engineered plans must follow the latest regulations and standards set forth in the Puyallup Municipal Code (PMC), the City Standards for Public Works Engineering and Construction (design standards), and the current City adopted stormwater manual at the time of civil permit application [PMC 21.10.040].
The stormwater design associated with this Development Permit will be reviewed for compliance with the 2019 Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington (ECY manual), which is the current adopted stormwater manual. The comments provided below are project-specific in nature and should not be considered an exhaustive list of the requirements from the PMC, design standards, or the DOE manual.
• Submit plans with CIP 9th Ave improvements incorporated into design. There were notable conflicts as mentioned via email.
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 $470.00 (plus an additional per hour rate of $180.00 in excess of 5 hours). The Civil permit shall be $300.00 and the inspection fee shall be 3% of the total cost of the project as calculated on the Engineering Division Cost Estimate form. [City of Puyallup Resolution No. 2098]
• Appendix A in the City Design Standards can be used to ensure submittal complies with design standards.
• 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’. The north arrow shall point up or to the right on the plans.
o Engineering plan sheets shall be numbered sequentially in this manner: Sheet 1 of 20, Sheet 2 of 20, etc. ending in Sheet 20 of 20.
o All applicable City Standard Notes and Standard Details shall be included on the construction plans for this project. A copy of the City Standards can be found on the City’s web site under Office of the City Engineer, Engineering Services.
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.
WATER
The proposed water system shall be designed and constructed to current City standards. [PMC 14.02.120]
SEWER
The proposed sewer system shall be designed and constructed to current City standards. [PMC 14.08.070]
STORMWATER
• Design shall occur pursuant to the 2019 Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington (The 2019 ECY Manual).
• Preliminary feasibility/infeasibility testing for infiltration facilities shall be in accordance with the site analysis requirements of the Ecology Manual, Volume III, Chapter 3.2, specifically:
- Groundwater evaluation, either instantaneous (MR1-5) or continuous monitoring well (MR1-9) during the wet weather months (December 1 through April 1).
- Hydraulic conductivity testing:
o If the development triggers Minimum Requirement #7 (flow control), if the site soils are consolidated, or is encumbered by a critical area a Small Scale Pilot Infiltration Tests (PIT) during the wet weather months (December 1 through April 1) is required.
o If the development does not trigger Minimum Requirement #7, is not encumbered by a critical area, and is located on soils unconsolidated by glacial advance, grain size analyses may be substituted for the Small Scale PIT test at the discretion of the review engineer.
- Testing to determine the hydraulic restriction layer.
- Mounding analysis may be required in accordance with Ecology Volume V Section 5.2.7.
• The applicant is responsible for submitting a preliminary stormwater management site plan which meets the design requirements provided by PMC Section 21.10 and Ecology Manual Volume I, Section 2.5.1. The preliminary stormwater site plan (PSSP) shall be submitted prior to Preliminary Site Plan approval to ensure that adequate stormwater facilities are anticipated prior to development of the individual lot(s). The preliminary stormwater site plan shall reasonably estimate the quantity of roof and driveway stormwater runoff and the application of On-site Stormwater Management BMPs for the proposed development.
• The applicant shall include a completed stormwater flowchart, Figure 3.1, contained in Ecology’s Phase II Municipal Stormwater Permit, Appendix I with the stormwater site plan. The link below may be used to obtain the flowchart:
