Frontage improvements are not required for this project. Per Boundary Line Revision P-18-0145, current parcel for building C (0419034038) does not have frontage along City ROW.
- Based on this, code required frontage improvements are not triggered.
Access
-Traffic Engineering will work closely with the Puyallup Police Department to ensure their access needs are provided.
-Existing eastern driveway location along 39th Ave SE does not meet current driveway separation standards (300ft for Major Arterial Roadways). Current access location has a negative offset alignment with PW driveway.
-The existing eastern most driveway on 39th Avenue SE will be required to limit turning movements to right-in, right-out only as conditioned with the ~700 stall parking expansion (E-21-0313).
-Per 9/17/24 pre application meeting, the owner is preparing a traffic engineering study to evaluate the right-in, right-out design. Will coordinate with design team with analysis is completed. Extent of driveway improvements are not known at this time.
Trip generation/Traffic Analysis:
-Based on the assumption that the previous use was a "General Office" building, the current proposal will not generate additional vehicle trips. This is consistent with the recent Central Pierce TI within the same building. Traffic analysis will not be required for this proposal.

Zone XX and Use Allowance
The site at 1015 39th Ave SE is in the Business Park (MP) zone district and the LM/W Comprehensive Plan designated area. Consult PMC 20.35 for zone specific standards. In the MP zone district, proposal for a public safety and police station is a permitted use, it would be considered a 'public service use'.
|

Other/Miscellaneous
Critical areas: There are wetlands on the site that have been mapped, however, given the scope of work defined, no wetland studies would be required. The proposed use is located well away from the area of known or suspected soil, groundwater and air contamination in the NW corner of the site. No other critical areas that would require special studies for this scope of work are known to be on or adjacent to the subject site.
|
|
Add Submittal Item: Preliminary Site Plan Application
If new building square footage is proposed over 4,000 SF in area then a Preliminary site plan application will be required for this scope of work. Application form can be downloaded from the City's website at https://www.cityofpuyallup.org/DocumentCenter/View/10804. Building and civil permits cannot be submitted until the preliminary site plan process has been completed.
If any new building square footage is proposed then this will trigger the requirement for a new SEPA checklist (regardless of the size of the new building area proposed because the existing building area already exceeds 4,000 SF). If the new building area exceeds 4,000sf, then submit the SEPA checklist with the required preliminary site plan application. If the new building area is less than 4,000 SF then submit a 'Stand Alone SEPA' land use permit INSTEAD of a preliminary site plan application. \
Civil and building permits can be submitted concurrently with a 'Stand Alone SEPA' land use permit submittal.

Parking Req.: Numb. Parking Spaces Req.
PMC 20.55.010 Number of parking spaces required: Police Stations are considered Professional offices for the purposes of parking rate calculations. Only the square footage that is used for office space such as the EOC, Administration, Professional Services would need to provide parking spaces. Professional offices: one space for each 200 square feet of gross floor area for medical, clinical and dental offices or one space for each 300 square feet of gross floor area for other professional and business offices.
Evidence Room, Operation Storage, Records, Fitness rooms, and any other materials or equipment storage areas would be considered accessory storage or other use areas and would not require parking stalls to be provided for those areas.

Landscaping Req.: General (VMS)
Landscaping Requirements: PMC 20.58 outlines landscaping requirements. All portions of a lot not devoted to building, future building, parking, access drives, walks, storage or accessory uses shall be landscaped in a manner consistent with the requirements of this chapter. The City also has a companion design manual – the Vegetation Management Standards (VMS) manual – found here: www.cityofpuyallup.org/puyallupvms. Please consult both the code landscape code section and the VMS for a full list of landscape requirements.

Landscaping Req. Pre App Notes: Parking Lots
If proposed parking lot revision will inlcude digging up existing paving and replacing it, then this scope of work will be considered replaced parking area and will need to conform to new parking standards for parking area landscaping. Restripping alone does not trigger requirements for revised parking area landscaping since no replaced paving is proposed.
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 site at 311 W Pioneer is in the Public Facilities (PF) zone district and the PF Comprehensive Plan designated area. Consult PMC 20.44 for zone specific standards.

Add Submittal Item: Non-Residential Design Review
Design Review Required if any significant exterior changes are proposed to the building administrative design review will be required, specifically Non-residential design review.
Non-Residential Design Review application (to be included with your landuse or building permit application). Your project is subject to administrative design review for non-residential style buildings see PMC 20.26.300 for specific design standards. Since this is an administrative process, your design submittal will be reviewed by the Director or designee who will approve, approve with conditions, or deny your design. Your design review application must be submitted as a supplemental form with the first submittal you submit to the City (whether that is your landuse permit (any permit beginning with a "PL") or a building or civil permit (any permit beginning with a "PR"). Please download the application form at https://www.cityofpuyallup.org/DocumentCenter/View/16334/Fillable---2026300-Nonresidential-Review.

Applicant noted that existing required parking lot landscaping is proposed to be removed and not replaced in place due to security concerns for police vehicles. Due to this concern, required landscaping may be replaced in alternative locations from those strictly applicable under City's vegetation management standards manual. Please coordinate with City Planning division to locate suitable alternative locations to replace removed required parking lot landscaping.
