CITY OF PUYALLUP PERMITTING PORTAL

Other/Miscellaneous

Planning consulted with Police on the submittal. Please provide a response to the following comment: "Puyallup PD Comment: We have a need for an emergency vehicle access point at the Gold Gate. That is where many of our police vehicles are staged during the fair, and in the case of an active shooter or other large disruption where we would have an urgent need to get some of our patrol vehicles that have ballistic doors inside the grounds, this would be a major concern. In addition. We use that existing vehicle access point routinely and daily during the fair, to stage a marked police car inside the grounds near the fountain as a crime deterrence tactic. I could not readily tell from the plans if the vehicle access gate stays in place. Finally, we support anything they can do to move more people back away from the street as sometimes when the lines are long people get very, very close to the curb with S Meridian ST. Good lighting is also important to us as well as maintaining the good cameras system they already have in place."

Purpose of cut is not defined. Likely the Permeable pavement and infiltration trench excavation, but should be denoted here. [SEPA, Pg 5]

See Document Markup

The infiltration trench is designed with perforated pipe and is therefore a UIC well per Ecology definition. This counts as a discharge into the groundwater. [ SEPA, Pg 8]

See Document Markup

Stormwater is a utility. [SEPA, Pg 23]

Other/Miscellaneous

The following conditions have been added: Design must comply with code section 20.60.001(4): “To ensure that signs in the city do not adversely affect pedestrian and traffic safety by obstructing vehicle sight distance, interfering with official traffic signs, signals and devices, and unduly directing attention away from the demands of safe driving;” Project will be prohibited from installing digital signage due to driver distraction concerns and proximity to the 9th Ave & S Meridian traffic signal (high vehicle/pedestrian volumes). Programmed lighting may require modification (at the discretion of the City) to ensure driver distraction concerns are mitigated (flashing/strobing lighting adjacent to a high-volume traffic signal is a potential public safety concern).
