-- Project specific notes: 1. Building plans will need to be complete with all building, mechanical, plumbing, energy code items and accessibility requirements that apply to 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. Separate permits are required for each sign type (wall mounted, pole, etc.). 3. Modular buildings (guard shack) will need to be permitted through the Washington State Department of Labor and Industries: https://lni.wa.gov/licensing-permits/manufactured-modular-mobile-structures/modular-other-mobile-structures/. Approved modular buildings must display the Gold ID tag from L&I. 4. The City’s Building Division will review and inspect the following: Setbacks, Footings, Skirting, Utility Connections, Landings, Stairs, Ramps, and Railings. 5. Retaining walls less than 4ft in height (measured from the top of the wall to the bottom of the footing), unless supporting a surcharge or impounding Class I, II or IIIA liquids, are exempt from permit. -- Building General Notes: a. All electrical is permitted by the Washington State Department L & I. b. For all accessible requirements, the City adopted the 2021 IBC / WAC 51-50 and the ICC A117.1-2017 standard. c. A Geotechnical Report for the building site area is required at the time of submittal.

Existing trees to be retained must be clearly marked on the final clearing and grading plan, and final landscape plan. Tree protection fencing and signage shall follow the city standard detail, see appendix 20.5. Standard detail shall be included on all plan sets with vegetation which is scheduled for retention and protection. All critical root protection zones (CRPZ) shall be shown on plan sets in diameter from the center of the tree. In determining tree CRPZ, the following standards shall be used.In establishing the extent of the Critical Root Protection Zone (CRPZ) for individual significant trees, groupings of significant trees, a stand of significant trees, or a heritage tree the following formula shall be used: Individual tree diameter (in inches) X 2, converted into feet = CRPZ, in diameter (Example: 20” tree X 2 = 40’ CRPZ diameter). The following minimum performance standards shall be used to determine the extent of allowable impacts to the CRPZ of significant trees: For significant trees, a minimum of 50 percent of the critical root zone must be preserved at natural grade, with natural ground cover. The protection zone may be irregular. The plan set shall provide a total square footage of CRPZ area and show the % of disturbance area. For heritage trees, a minimum of 75 percent of the critical root zone must be preserved at natural grade with natural ground cover. The protection zone may be irregular. The plan set shall provide a total square footage of CRPZ area and show the % of disturbance area. No cut or fill greater than four (4) inches in depth may be located closer to the tree trunk than ½ the CRPZ radius distance. (Example, 20-inch DBH tree has a 40’ CRPZ area (in diameter) - meaning no cut or fill greater than 4” in depth is allowed within 20’ of the tree trunk). No cut or fill within the distance from the tree which is three (3) times the trunk DBH is allowed. (Example, 20-inch DBH tree X 3 = 60”, meaning no cut is allowed within 60-inches of a tree which has a 20-inch diameter trunk). These criteria represent minimum standards for determining whether or not a tree may be required to be retained. Greater impacts may be allowed, provided that all design alternatives have been proven unfeasible and that a pre-conditioning and after care mitigation program is established. See section 10.1 of the VMS, and referenced appendices for more information.

Building elevations for guard shack must be submitted with the associated building permit application.

A few things to consider for civil application: Check impervious surface calcs. Plans say 'Pervious Area Removed' is 2360 sq ft, yet the TIR says 1505 sq ft of added pavement in the Project Overview section. Are these supposed to be the same? Clarify if they are not. Also, there is no buffer identified for the nearby wetland. We don't anticipate this critical area will impact the project, but this issue should be addressed.
