    Weyerhaeuser Road Design:  The applicant shall be responsible for preparing Weyerhaeuser Road reconstruction plans from the public/private road boundary at adjacent to lot 21 to Center Street E.   This design should include sidewalks, stormwater facilities, and street improvements.  The design should include a realignment of Weyerhaeuser Road North with Weyerhaeuser Road South .  The design shall be approved by the Town’s Public Works department prior to final approval.  Out of that design, the applicant shall construct the western sidewalk and identified stormwater improvements, but shall not be responsible for street reconstruction or the eastern sidewalk improvements.  The town may require minor street improvements in order to complete the stormwater and sidewalk improvements, to ensure that those improvements are compatible with the existing street, and to ensure safety until which time as full reconstruction will occur.  Sidewalks on the west side of Weyerhaeuser Road between Center Street and the entrance to the development shall be 8 feet in width to facilitate their use as part of a future trail system.

4.  Sanitary Sewer- The preliminary design for Sanitary Sewer is sufficient to continue processing this application, however the town requires that the northernmost manhole proposed be relocated to the northern property line within the dedicated utility easement and not in the cul-de-sac.  Further, the sanitary sewer line shall be extended to the NE corner of lot 13.  Sanitary sewer design and construction shall be in accordance with all applicable provisions of the EMC.  Final plans shall be signed and stamped by an engineer and the plans shall be submitted to the town public works department for review and approval prior to construction.

 

5.  The utility easement running to the northeast corner of lot 13 from the cul-de-sac shall be additionally dedicated for ingress and egress to the registered owner of tax parcel 0416144142. 

 

6.  Storm Sewer- The preliminary design for stormwater management is sufficient to continue  processing this application.  Final plans shall be engineered in accordance with the 2005 Pierce County Stormwater Management and Site Development Manual and be approved by the public works department prior to construction.  These plans shall include identification of necessary bio-swale landscaping including plant variety and placement.  Installation of an engineered stormwater management system shall be a condition of Final Plat Approval.

9.  The applicant shall construct a 6-foot wooden fence along the east side of lots 13-23 and tract D as a means to prevent access to this private section of Weyerhaeuser Road North and to ensure safety.

 

10.  Sidewalks within the development and along the private road and along the north side of the public road shall be 5 feet in width. Sidewalks along the south side of the public right of way which accesses the private road shall be 8 feet in width to accommodate future trail system connections.  Crosswalks shall be constructed and painted at all intersections. 

 

11.  Light and glare mitigation.  The applicant is required to mitigate expected light and glare from vehicles exiting the site by planting site obscuring trees and landscaping to reduce that light which may adversely impact the residents of tax parcel 0416144105 and 0416144091 or, at the request of the property owners of the above mentioned tax parcels, the applicant may be alternatively required to pay those property owners an equivalent amount to the cost of materials.

19.  The statement “Future uses as permitted in Ordinance 2006-6” on the face  of the plat shall be replaced with “future uses as permitted by the EMC.”
