Alder St—Building 8 Shelton, WA 98584 Project: Old Belfair Hwy Fire Station,AHBL No. 2180712.30 I Subject: Pre-Application Conference Request Civil Engineers I I Dear County Staff: Structural Engineers We would like to request a pre-application meeting to discuss the development of a new Fire Station for North Mason Fire District. Attached is a conceptual site plan for staff review and Landscape Architects feedback. A project description and specific questions are provided below. Project Description Community Planners The proposed new Fire Station would be located to the north of and adjacent to the existing fire Land Surveyors station located at 460 NE Old Belfair Hwy. The new station would be located on Tax Parcel 123291100030 at 490 NE Old Belfair Hwy. The property is 2.5 acres and currently contains a single-family residence with accessory structures. The existing fire station may be re-used for Neighbors government offices and the District may continue to share use of the existing building for community use/special events. The properties are located in the Mason County Belfair UGA. Both parcels are located in the Low Density Residential (R-4)zoning district. As depicted on the conceptual plan, the site has the potential to provide a 2 story, 4-bay, approximately 18,000 square foot fire station. The intent is for the existing residence to remain with access shared through the north side of the property. 19 new parking spaces would be provided for the new fire station and parking may be reconfigured on the existing building/future government office building. We anticipate that there would be shared use of parking on the two parcels and have therefore configured the site to accommodate vehicle circulation. The proposal would create three distinct driveways instead of the current continuous driveway that is located at the existing fire station. We are evaluating the potential to connect to the existing sewer located approximately 1,200 feet south in Old Belfair Hwy. If that proves unfeasible, another option may be to construct an onsite septic system in the east end of either of the two properties. Stormwater will likely be treated on site and conveyed to the existing storm system located in Old Belfair Hwy. Water is also available in Old Belfair Hwy. Questions for Staff At the meeting, we would like to discuss County staff comments on the proposal. Specifically, we have the following questions: 2215 Norlh 301h S1rea1 Suie 300 Tams,WA 9MO3350 253.393.2422 www ahbl.com I December 13,2018 2180712.30 Page 2of2 i 1. According to the Matrix of Permitted Uses provided in Figure 17.03.020 of Mason County Code, Fire Stations are listed as permitted uses in Urban Growth Areas. Please confirm. Fire Stations are not listed in Chapter 17.22.020—040. 2. The Matrix also lists public utility offices and professional offices as being allowed uses. Please confirm the existing fire station could be re-used for government offices. 3. Fire Stations require wide driveway aprons to accommodate truck access and circulation. Are the three driveways and the proposed access acceptable? 4. Are road frontage improvements required for the proposed project? If yes, please provide a roadway section or description of the required improvements. 5. We have not determined if we would retain the existing parcel lines, move parcel lines or consolidate the two parcels into one parcel. Please explain the issues the proposed site plan would have under either scenario. Would a septic drainfield be allowed to serve a use located on a different parcel? Would the shared access and driveway connections be allowed to cross a property line? Would there be relief from the landscape buffer requirements between the two uses? 6. In order to assess the potential to connect the project to sewer, please provide record drawings for the nearest sewer connection. Are there any private or public proposals to extend the sewer closer to the project site? 7. Please confirm that we have the option of following the Low Impact Development requirements for the Belfair UGA found in Chapter 17.80, or the most recent Ecology Stormwater Manual. 8. Please provide a definition for Lot Coverage. We understand there is a 35 percent maximum in the R-4 zoning district. What does that include? We may need to use pervious surface in the standard vehicular parking areas, will that be an acceptable method to reduce lot coverage? 9. What is the likely schedule for processing the SEPA, site development and building permit applications? Thank you for your time. We look forward to meeting with County staff to discuss the project in detail. Sincerely, Lisa Klein, AICP Associate Principal Enclosures c: Chief Beau Bakken, North Mason Fire District Gary T.
