Critical Areas: There are no critical areas on or within 300ft of the subject site that would require specialized reports for this scope of work.

Add Submittal Item: SEPA Req.

SEPA: Project scope is subject to SEPA review since the total building size plus the proposed addition exceeds 4,000 sf. Since the proposed project is a small addition however, no preliminary site plan will be required for this project. Instead, CONCURRENTLY WITH YOUR FIRST CONSTRUCTION PERMIT SUBMITTAL please submit a planning application called "SEPA Standalone" and upload the required documents including a SEPA checklist. This will enable the City to process your SEPA review concurrently with your construction permit (civil or building permit application). No permits will be able to be issued until the SEPA process is complete. SEPA checklist can be downloaded from City website at www.cityofpuyallup.org/DocumentCenter/View/9788/SEPA-Checklist-FILLABLE

Add Submittal Item: Non-Residential Design Review

Architectural Design Review: "Non-Residential Design Review" Worksheet is required to be included with your 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 or a building or civil permit. Please download the worksheet form at https://www.cityofpuyallup.org/DocumentCenter/View/16334/Fillable---2026300-Nonresidential-Review

Building Comments: 1. Building plans will need to be complete with all building, mechanical, plumbing, energy code items and accessibility requirements that apply to the project. Current codes are the 2021 Washington State codes with Puyallup amendments. In general, local amendments other than administrative processes are limited to Fire Code elements for Fire Alarm, Fire Flow, Fire Sprinklers and Fire Access. Please see the Puyallup Municipal Code chapter 16 and 17. 2. Regarding whether gas radiant heat is allowed or if electric is required: you’re allowed to use either gas-fired radiant or electric infrared radiant heating for localized heating. There’s no requirement that it must be electric. However, if you go with a gas-fired system, the addition needs to be set up so it’s ready for a future electric heat pump. (2021 WSEC-C, section C401.3.6). Please also note: appliances (such as heaters) installed in areas frequented by vehicles must be located at least 8 feet above the floor, unless they are protected from vehicle impact and properly shielded. If vehicles may pass below such appliances, they must be at least 1 foot higher than the tallest garage door opening and installed per manufacturer’s instructions. 3. The proposed use for the new addition is for customer vehicle drop-off. Vehicle service may not be performed in the new addition unless the space meets the minimum exhaust and ventilation requirements, and fire safety requirements per the 2021 Washington State Codes. 4. Structural analysis of the existing wall will be required to support the new openings. 5. Systems serving the garage, including HVAC and lighting, may be subject to commissioning to verify performance and code compliance. Documentation of compliance must be provided with permit submittals. 6. Exterior walls, doors, windows, and roofs must meet minimum insulation and thermal performance requirements as specified in the Washington State Commercial Energy Code (WSEC). Overhead garage doors in conditioned spaces require insulation to a specified minimum R-value. 7. Regarding whether it will be required to fur-out the new CMU walls for insulation; this addition would fit the definition of a semi-conditioned space if the heating equipment has an output capacity greater than or equal to 3.4 Btu/(h-ft2) but not greater than 8 Btu/(h-ft2). A Semi-heated space will not need to comply with conditioned wall insulation requirements - but ceiling insulation, slab insulation, and the roll-up doors would still need to comply. -- Building General Notes: a. All electrical is permitted by the Washington State Department L & I. b. Truss Plans for TJI or BCI’s and Truss Specifications are required at the time of submittal. c. For all accessible requirements, the City adopted the 2021 IBC / WAC 51-50 and the ICC A117.1-2017 standard. If you have any other Building related questions for this project, please reach out to me at bsnowden@puyallupwa.gov. No other Building comments at this time.

A traffic scoping worksheet will be required for this project. City policy requires the project trips to be estimated using the Institute of Transportation Engineers’ (ITE) Trip Generation, 11th Edition. The city has adopted a City-Wide Traffic Impact Fee of $4,500 per PM peak hour trip. Final fees will be calculated and assessed by the City at the time of building permit issuance. The expected TIF calculation at current rates is: PM Peak Hour Trip = $4500 ITE Land Use Code 840 (Automobile Sales - New) - Rate = 2.42 pm peak hour trips per 1000 sqft. Per Application Submittal - New area is 1800 sqft 2.4 x 1.8 = 4.32 new pm trips x $4500 = $19,440 Note: As part of the City's Comprehensive Plan update, a traffic impact fee rate study is in progress. The information provided does not vest the project to current TIF rate calculations. The actual impact fee rate will be determined upon building permit submittal.
