The minimum water pipe size shall be 8-inch diameter. (Exception: A 4-inch water main may be installed if either, 1) the proposed main is a dead-end line with no possibility of being expanded in the future, or 2) that portion of the proposed main beyond the last fire hydrant for the project.) [PMC 14.02.190 & CS 301.1(1)] • The applicant shall provide and install the water meters required to service the site. Domestic service water meters shall be located within the public ROW, or in the case of a private road adjacent to the road section, in accordance with City Standards. [PMC 14.02.120(2)(f) 14.02.220(2) & CS 301.3] • The water main shall be located generally 10 or 12-feet west or south of roadway centerlines per city standard drawings. Any portion of the mainline extension located outside City right-of-way must be centered in a minimum 40-foot-wide easement granted to the city for maintenance purposes. [PMC 14.02.120(f) & CS 301.1(11)] • The applicant shall be responsible for the operation and maintenance of the proposed water main located on private property. • Any existing services that are to be abandoned at this site shall be disconnected at the main, the corp. stop removed, and the service plugged to city standards. [PMC 14.02.120(f)] • The minimum distance between water lines and sewer lines shall be 10-feet horizontally and 18-inches vertically. If this criterion cannot be met, the design shall isolate the sewer and water lines by encasement, shielding or other approved methods. • A 2-inch blow-off assembly is required on dead-end water mains except where fire hydrants are installed at the dead-end. [PMC 14.02.120(f) & CS 301.1(7)] • Water pipe and service connections shall be a minimum of 10-feet away from building foundations and/or roof lines. • The applicant is required to provide backflow protection on the domestic line(s) in accordance with City Standards. The minimum level of protection would be a double check valve assembly (DCVA). However, the city requires a reduced pressure backflow assembly (RPBA) for any use considered to be a high hazard as outlined in WAC 246-290-490 Table 9. PMC 14.02.220(3) & CS 302.2] • If an RPBA is not appropriate then the applicant shall provide backflow protection with the installation of a double check valve assembly (DCVA) on the domestic connection to the public water main, if one does not currently exist. A plumbing permit is required for this work to be completed; and the unit should be located outside the building, immediately downstream of the existing water meter if possible. If an irrigation system is also proposed, a DCVA is required on that line as well. [PMC 14.02.220(3) & CS 302.2] Backflow Protection • A reduced pressure backflow assembly (RPBA) may be required on the domestic line at each location where the proposed water main connects to the public system. If an irrigation system is proposed, a DCVA is required on that line. [PMC 14.02.220(3) & CS 302] • The following list shows examples of uses and industries where an RPBA is probably required: • Agricultural (farms and dairies) • Beverage bottling plants • Car washes • Chemical Plants • Commercial laundries and dry cleaners • Premises where both reclaimed and potable water are provided • Film processing facilities • Food processing plants • Hospitals, medical and dental centers, nursing homes and veterinary • Blood and plasma centers • Premises with separate irrigation systems using the purveyor’s water with chemical addition • Laboratories • Metal plating industries • Mortuaries • Petroleum processing or storage plants • Piers and docks • Radioactive material processing plants or nuclear reactors • Wastewater lift stations and treatment plants • Premises with an unapproved auxiliary water supply interconnected with potable supply Fire Requirements (applies to both City Water and Water Purveyors): 1. Fire flow requirements are dependent on the construction type and size. Buildings >10K SF requires sprinklers. Note if fire partition walls are used this reduces this 10k SF to that area protected by the fire walls. 2. Hydraulic analysis is generally required by Fire. The reviewer needs to coordinate the system and pipe size based on this analysis. The volume capacity for dead end lines are limited by Velocity. Q=VA where V is limited by 10FPS per city standards. 3. Engineering is focused on some water quality benefits, we don’t want domestic water to come off a dead-end hydrant line as this water is commonly stagnant and tastes funny. Fire is generally not worried about this. If a hydrant is shown in the middle of a private site, the project likely needs fire sprinklers. 4. A wet pipe fire sprinkler system constantly has water in the pipes. This type of sprinkler system requires a DCVA backflow device, which requires a plumbing permit to install the backflow. 5. A dry pipe sprinkler system uses pressurized air in the pipe which is released when the water is released, this system does not require a backflow device. • For commercial/townhome developments each building shall have its own fire sprinkler system with a dedicated fire service line. • The domestic service line and fire system service line shall have a separate, independent connection to the supply main. A Double Check Valve Assembly (DCVA) will be required near the property line at the point of connection to the public main.

The minimum water pipe size shall be 8-inch diameter. (Exception: A 4-inch water main may be installed if either, 1) the proposed main is a dead-end line with no possibility of being expanded in the future, or 2) that portion of the proposed main beyond the last fire hydrant for the project.) [PMC 14.02.190 & CS 301.1(1)] • The applicant shall provide and install the water meters required to service the site. Domestic service water meters shall be located within the public ROW, or in the case of a private road adjacent to the road section, in accordance with City Standards. [PMC 14.02.120(2)(f) 14.02.220(2) & CS 301.3] • The water main shall be located generally 10 or 12-feet west or south of roadway centerlines per city standard drawings. Any portion of the mainline extension located outside City right-of-way must be centered in a minimum 40-foot-wide easement granted to the city for maintenance purposes. [PMC 14.02.120(f) & CS 301.1(11)] • The applicant shall be responsible for the operation and maintenance of the proposed water main located on private property. • Any existing services that are to be abandoned at this site shall be disconnected at the main, the corp. stop removed, and the service plugged to city standards. [PMC 14.02.120(f)] • The minimum distance between water lines and sewer lines shall be 10-feet horizontally and 18-inches vertically. If this criterion cannot be met, the design shall isolate the sewer and water lines by encasement, shielding or other approved methods. • A 2-inch blow-off assembly is required on dead-end water mains except where fire hydrants are installed at the dead-end. [PMC 14.02.120(f) & CS 301.1(7)] • Water pipe and service connections shall be a minimum of 10-feet away from building foundations and/or roof lines. • The applicant is required to provide backflow protection on the domestic line(s) in accordance with City Standards. The minimum level of protection would be a double check valve assembly (DCVA). However, the city requires a reduced pressure backflow assembly (RPBA) for any use considered to be a high hazard as outlined in WAC 246-290-490 Table 9. PMC 14.02.220(3) & CS 302.2] • If an RPBA is not appropriate then the applicant shall provide backflow protection with the installation of a double check valve assembly (DCVA) on the domestic connection to the public water main, if one does not currently exist. A plumbing permit is required for this work to be completed; and the unit should be located outside the building, immediately downstream of the existing water meter if possible. If an irrigation system is also proposed, a DCVA is required on that line as well. [PMC 14.02.220(3) & CS 302.2] Backflow Protection • A reduced pressure backflow assembly (RPBA) may be required on the domestic line at each location where the proposed water main connects to the public system. If an irrigation system is proposed, a DCVA is required on that line. [PMC 14.02.220(3) & CS 302] • The following list shows examples of uses and industries where an RPBA is probably required: • Agricultural (farms and dairies) • Beverage bottling plants • Car washes • Chemical Plants • Commercial laundries and dry cleaners • Premises where both reclaimed and potable water are provided • Film processing facilities • Food processing plants • Hospitals, medical and dental centers, nursing homes and veterinary • Blood and plasma centers • Premises with separate irrigation systems using the purveyor’s water with chemical addition • Laboratories • Metal plating industries • Mortuaries • Petroleum processing or storage plants • Piers and docks • Radioactive material processing plants or nuclear reactors • Wastewater lift stations and treatment plants • Premises with an unapproved auxiliary water supply interconnected with potable supply Fire Requirements (applies to both City Water and Water Purveyors): 1. Fire flow requirements are dependent on the construction type and size. Buildings >10K SF requires sprinklers. Note if fire partition walls are used this reduces this 10k SF to that area protected by the fire walls. 2. Hydraulic analysis is generally required by Fire. The reviewer needs to coordinate the system and pipe size based on this analysis. The volume capacity for dead end lines are limited by Velocity. Q=VA where V is limited by 10FPS per city standards. 3. Engineering is focused on some water quality benefits, we don’t want domestic water to come off a dead-end hydrant line as this water is commonly stagnant and tastes funny. Fire is generally not worried about this. If a hydrant is shown in the middle of a private site, the project likely needs fire sprinklers. 4. A wet pipe fire sprinkler system constantly has water in the pipes. This type of sprinkler system requires a DCVA backflow device, which requires a plumbing permit to install the backflow. 5. A dry pipe sprinkler system uses pressurized air in the pipe which is released when the water is released, this system does not require a backflow device. • For commercial/townhome developments each building shall have its own fire sprinkler system with a dedicated fire service line. • The domestic service line and fire system service line shall have a separate, independent connection to the supply main. A Double Check Valve Assembly (DCVA) will be required near the property line at the point of connection to the public main. The fire sprinkler Double Detector Check Valve Assembly (DDCVA) may be located either inside, or outside, of the building. • The sprinkler supply line shall be designed, and shown on the plan, into the building to the point of connection to the interior building riser. Provide plan and elevation detail(s) where the riser enters the building with dimensions, clearances, and joint restraint in accordance with NFPA 24. A post indicator valve (PIV) shall be provided for the fire sprinkler system in advance of the DDCVA. [PMC 14.02, CS 302.3, & CS 303] • Fire hydrants shall be placed so that there is a minimum of 50-feet and a maximum 150-feet of separation from hydrants to any building walls.

If an irrigation system is proposed, a DCVA is required on that line. [PMC 14.02.220(3) & CS 302] • The following list shows examples of uses and industries where an RPBA is probably required: • Agricultural (farms and dairies) • Beverage bottling plants • Car washes • Chemical Plants • Commercial laundries and dry cleaners • Premises where both reclaimed and potable water are provided • Film processing facilities • Food processing plants • Hospitals, medical and dental centers, nursing homes and veterinary • Blood and plasma centers • Premises with separate irrigation systems using the purveyor’s water with chemical addition • Laboratories • Metal plating industries • Mortuaries • Petroleum processing or storage plants • Piers and docks • Radioactive material processing plants or nuclear reactors • Wastewater lift stations and treatment plants • Premises with an unapproved auxiliary water supply interconnected with potable supply Fire Requirements (applies to both City Water and Water Purveyors): 1. Fire flow requirements are dependent on the construction type and size. Buildings >10K SF requires sprinklers. Note if fire partition walls are used this reduces this 10k SF to that area protected by the fire walls. 2. Hydraulic analysis is generally required by Fire. The reviewer needs to coordinate the system and pipe size based on this analysis. The volume capacity for dead end lines are limited by Velocity. Q=VA where V is limited by 10FPS per city standards. 3. Engineering is focused on some water quality benefits, we don’t want domestic water to come off a dead-end hydrant line as this water is commonly stagnant and tastes funny. Fire is generally not worried about this. If a hydrant is shown in the middle of a private site, the project likely needs fire sprinklers. 4. A wet pipe fire sprinkler system constantly has water in the pipes. This type of sprinkler system requires a DCVA backflow device, which requires a plumbing permit to install the backflow. 5. A dry pipe sprinkler system uses pressurized air in the pipe which is released when the water is released, this system does not require a backflow device. • For commercial/townhome developments each building shall have its own fire sprinkler system with a dedicated fire service line. • The domestic service line and fire system service line shall have a separate, independent connection to the supply main. A Double Check Valve Assembly (DCVA) will be required near the property line at the point of connection to the public main. The fire sprinkler Double Detector Check Valve Assembly (DDCVA) may be located either inside, or outside, of the building. • The sprinkler supply line shall be designed, and shown on the plan, into the building to the point of connection to the interior building riser. Provide plan and elevation detail(s) where the riser enters the building with dimensions, clearances, and joint restraint in accordance with NFPA 24. A post indicator valve (PIV) shall be provided for the fire sprinkler system in advance of the DDCVA. [PMC 14.02, CS 302.3, & CS 303] • Fire hydrants shall be placed so that there is a minimum of 50-feet and a maximum 150-feet of separation from hydrants to any building walls. [PMC 16.08.080 & CS 301.2, 302.3] • Maximum hydrant run is 20-feet. Hydrant runs that exceed this distance shall be served by a mainline with the hydrant feed line set at right angles to the supply main. • The Fire Department Connection (FDC) shall be located no closer than 10-feet and no further than 15-feet from a fire hydrant. [CS 302.3] • Available fire flow for the project site must be determined by hydraulic modeling conducted by the City’s consultant. The cost of this analysis is $600 and shall be paid by the applicant. • Utility extensions shall be approved and permitted prior to any building permit issuance. [PMC 14.02.130] • Prior to completion of any future watermain extension, the engineer-of-record shall complete the State Department of Health’s “Construction Completion Report for Distribution Main Projects”, professional engineering seal, and provide a copy to the City.

Parking Area Landscaping Required If the proposed paved areas on site exceed 10,000 square feet, the project landscape architect shall design to the city’s parking lot landscaping standards (Type IV standards of the City’s Vegetation Management Standards Manual (VMS). The site designer and landscape architect will need to review and integrate all the other design requirements of the type IV landscaping standards, including: No more than eight (8) parking spaces shall be placed consecutively without a landscaping island. All perimeter landscape islands (defined as islands which project into parking lots from an area connected to a perimeter landscape yard) shall be a minimum of 12’ wide with a minimum depth of each landscape island to match the abutting stall depth. All internal landscape islands (landscape islands entirely surrounded by paving) shall be a minimum of 15’ in width with a minimum depth of each landscape island to match the abutting stall depth. ‘Head-to-head’ parking stalls and internal landscape islands shall be separated by a ‘connector landscaping strip’ a minimum of 6' in width. All ‘head-to-head’ parking stalls internal to a parking lot shall have internal island ‘end caps’ to separate the parking stalls from abutting drive aisles. These ‘end cap’ islands shall follow the requirements for internal islands (size, dimensions, required landscaping, etc.). We strongly suggest reviewing these requirements as early as possible to assess and determine costs, parking field layout and configuration of civil utilities as to minimize impacts for consistency with the Type IV standards.

Parking Area Landscaping Required If the proposed paved areas on site exceed 10,000 square feet, the project landscape architect shall design to the city’s parking lot landscaping standards (Type IV standards of the City’s Vegetation Management Standards Manual (VMS). The site designer and landscape architect will need to review and integrate all the other design requirements of the type IV landscaping standards, including: No more than eight (8) parking spaces shall be placed consecutively without a landscaping island. All perimeter landscape islands (defined as islands which project into parking lots from an area connected to a perimeter landscape yard) shall be a minimum of 12’ wide with a minimum depth of each landscape island to match the abutting stall depth. All internal landscape islands (landscape islands entirely surrounded by paving) shall be a minimum of 15’ in width with a minimum depth of each landscape island to match the abutting stall depth. ‘Head-to-head’ parking stalls and internal landscape islands shall be separated by a ‘connector landscaping strip’ a minimum of 6' in width. All ‘head-to-head’ parking stalls internal to a parking lot shall have internal island ‘end caps’ to separate the parking stalls from abutting drive aisles. These ‘end cap’ islands shall follow the requirements for internal islands (size, dimensions, required landscaping, etc.). We strongly suggest reviewing these requirements as early as possible to assess and determine costs, parking field layout and configuration of civil utilities as to minimize impacts for consistency with the Type IV standards. The Type IV standards may reduce the overall off-street parking stall count. The perimeter of all parking areas and associated access drives which abut public rights-of-way shall be screened with on-site landscaping, earth berms, fencing, or a combination thereof.

The minimum water pipe size shall be 8-inch diameter. (Exception: A 4-inch water main may be installed if either, 1) the proposed main is a dead-end line with no possibility of being expanded in the future, or 2) that portion of the proposed main beyond the last fire hydrant for the project.) [PMC 14.02.190 & CS 301.1(1)] • The applicant shall provide and install the water meters required to service the site. Domestic service water meters shall be located within the public ROW, or in the case of a private road adjacent to the road section, in accordance with City Standards. [PMC 14.02.120(2)(f) 14.02.220(2) & CS 301.3] • The water main shall be located generally 10 or 12-feet west or south of roadway centerlines per city standard drawings. Any portion of the mainline extension located outside City right-of-way must be centered in a minimum 40-foot-wide easement granted to the city for maintenance purposes.

The minimum level of protection would be a double check valve assembly (DCVA). However, the city requires a reduced pressure backflow assembly (RPBA) for any use considered to be a high hazard as outlined in WAC 246-290-490 Table 9. PMC 14.02.220(3) & CS 302.2] • If an RPBA is not appropriate then the applicant shall provide backflow protection with the installation of a double check valve assembly (DCVA) on the domestic connection to the public water main, if one does not currently exist. A plumbing permit is required for this work to be completed; and the unit should be located outside the building, immediately downstream of the existing water meter if possible. If an irrigation system is also proposed, a DCVA is required on that line as well. [PMC 14.02.220(3) & CS 302.2] Backflow Protection • A reduced pressure backflow assembly (RPBA) may be required on the domestic line at each location where the proposed water main connects to the public system. If an irrigation system is proposed, a DCVA is required on that line. [PMC 14.02.220(3) & CS 302] • The following list shows examples of uses and industries where an RPBA is probably required: • Agricultural (farms and dairies) • Beverage bottling plants • Car washes • Chemical Plants • Commercial laundries and dry cleaners • Premises where both reclaimed and potable water are provided • Film processing facilities • Food processing plants • Hospitals, medical and dental centers, nursing homes and veterinary • Blood and plasma centers • Premises with separate irrigation systems using the purveyor’s water with chemical addition • Laboratories • Metal plating industries • Mortuaries • Petroleum processing or storage plants • Piers and docks • Radioactive material processing plants or nuclear reactors • Wastewater lift stations and treatment plants • Premises with an unapproved auxiliary water supply interconnected with potable supply Fire Requirements (applies to both City Water and Water Purveyors): 1. Fire flow requirements are dependent on the construction type and size. Buildings >10K SF requires sprinklers. Note if fire partition walls are used this reduces this 10k SF to that area protected by the fire walls. 2. Hydraulic analysis is generally required by Fire. The reviewer needs to coordinate the system and pipe size based on this analysis. The volume capacity for dead end lines are limited by Velocity. Q=VA where V is limited by 10FPS per city standards. 3. Engineering is focused on some water quality benefits, we don’t want domestic water to come off a dead-end hydrant line as this water is commonly stagnant and tastes funny. Fire is generally not worried about this. If a hydrant is shown in the middle of a private site, the project likely needs fire sprinklers. 4. A wet pipe fire sprinkler system constantly has water in the pipes. This type of sprinkler system requires a DCVA backflow device, which requires a plumbing permit to install the backflow. 5. A dry pipe sprinkler system uses pressurized air in the pipe which is released when the water is released, this system does not require a backflow device. • For commercial/townhome developments each building shall have its own fire sprinkler system with a dedicated fire service line. • The domestic service line and fire system service line shall have a separate, independent connection to the supply main. A Double Check Valve Assembly (DCVA) will be required near the property line at the point of connection to the public main. The fire sprinkler Double Detector Check Valve Assembly (DDCVA) may be located either inside, or outside, of the building. • The sprinkler supply line shall be designed, and shown on the plan, into the building to the point of connection to the interior building riser. Provide plan and elevation detail(s) where the riser enters the building with dimensions, clearances, and joint restraint in accordance with NFPA 24. A post indicator valve (PIV) shall be provided for the fire sprinkler system in advance of the DDCVA. [PMC 14.02, CS 302.3, & CS 303] • Fire hydrants shall be placed so that there is a minimum of 50-feet and a maximum 150-feet of separation from hydrants to any building walls.

FLOODPLAIN AE Zone • This parcel has within it a Special Flood Hazard Area as determined by the National Flood Insurance Program Community Panel Number 53053C06011, dated March 7, 2017. Development of the property shall adhere to the regulations contained in PMC Chapter 21.07. Specifically: o The applicant is responsible to determine the Base Flood Elevation (BFE) for this project. A hydrologic analysis shall be completed by a professional engineer licensed in the State of Washington competent in the technical and scientific knowledge necessary to determine the BFE in accordance with the requirements of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). The City may, at the applicant’s expense, hire a third party consultant to evaluate the BFE determination. o It is an option to submit a Letter of Map Amendment (LOMA) or Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) to FEMA to remove the structure from the floodplain. However, this requires a detailed floodplain study and the approved LOMA/LOMR must be received by the City prior to permit issuance. o An application for a development permit shall be required and shall include: ? Elevation Certificate ? Any floodproofing details ? For projects in the floodway engineering analysis indicating no rise in the Base Flood Elevation (BFE) o The applicant shall submit a habitat assessment prepared by a qualified professional evaluating the effects and/or indirect effects of the proposed development (during both construction and post-construction) on floodplain functions and documenting that the proposed development will not result in “take” of any species listed as threatened or endangered under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). o Development proposals that will cause an increase in the water surface elevation of the base flood must provide compensatory storage to the extent necessary to avoid “take” of any species listed as threatened or endangered. This storage must comply with [PMC 21.07.060(1)(f)(i)]. ? If less than 1:1 compensatory storage is proposed, the written assessment shall include a hydrologic and hydraulic analysis to determine any effects on floodplain storage capacity, increased flood heights, or increased velocities. o If it is determined that the proposed project will impact any listed species or their habitat, the applicant shall provide a mitigation plan to achieve equivalent or greater biologic functions as those lost prior to development of the site. o New residential construction and substantial improvement of any structure will require that the lowest floor, including the basement, shall be elevated 1-foot above the base flood elevation (BFE) of the site. o New non-residential construction and substantial improvement of any structure will require that the lowest floor, including the basement, shall be elevated 1-foot above the base flood elevation (BFE) of the site or meet the requirements of [PMC 21.07.060(2)(b)(i-iv)] o Construction in unnumbered A zones where a BFE is not available and cannot be reasonable obtained shall always build the lowest floor two feet above the highest adjacent grade.

SPECIFIC QUESTIONS: I have provided an answer to each question or the name of the department that will provide the answer: 1. ALL frontage improvements are required see Puyallup Municipal Code 11.08.135. Yes, Puyallup is the permitting agency 2. It is unlikely. City Standard Detail for Major Arterials is 01.01.05. It appears that their is adequate ROW in front of the proposed development 3. See Puyallup Municipal Code 11.05.160. It is not likely considering the current configuration of utilities in the surrounding area but the City reserves the right to request this type of work if it promotes the cities policy of undergrounding facilities within the right-of-way. 4. The base recorded Fire Flow at this location 1950 GPM. If more detail is required a fire flow model can be applied for. These are paid for by the client. Yes, it is a City main. 5. See FIRE review. 6. Generally, only if they are for runoff from the ROW. See City of Puyallup Design Standard Section 200.1, #4 (but creative solutions for stormwater attenuation are welcome). 7. Refer to the 2019 manual. Generally non PGIS can bypass treatment, but shall not be mixed with PGIS. 8. There are wetlands and regulated floodplain within the parcel. See PLANNING comments. 9. NO 10. NO 11. The site is relatively flat. There are critical areas, but no known complaints or issues. 12. PLANNING 13. PLANNING and TRAFFIC. There are rules about how the drive through is queued in relation to the building. 14. Planning, Civil, Building. Same as everywhere else. 15. PLANNING may have design review that is separate from the civil and building. 16. Of course 17. City review times do not vary. This information is available on our website. Subsequent submittals within permits have shorter duration review times than the initial submittal. 18. PLANNING 19. PLANNING 20. TRAFFIC 21. We occasionally allow early Clear, Fill and Grade, but it is a case by case decision. Generally, if the engineering is in good shape early on then we are more likely to allow early grading. If there are multiple issues with the submittal and a general lack of attention to detail, then we may hesitate. 22. BUILDING 23. BUILDING 24. BUILDING 25. Traffic is dependent on your studies that are submitted and reviewed. Storm, water and sewer System Development Charges are all posted annually and go up each year in February. No reductions to System Development Charges are allowed. 26. TRAFFIC
