Puyallup New Development: Volkswagen Dealership, Total Wine and More

Permits associated with several noteworthy new projects have been received at the City permit counter. These include:

· Robbin’s Hollow is a proposed 84-unit residential project on an approximately 10- acre site on 23rd Avenue SE in the vicinity of 3rd Street SE. This existing vacant property, zoned RM-10 (medium density multi-family residential), was formerly proposed for development under the name “Crimson Ridge”. The current project proposes a mixture of two-plex and four-plex residential structures. Per City code, the applicant is required to hold a “pre-application neighborhood meeting”, which will be held on:

Friday, September 13th
5:30 pm
Puyallup City Council Chambers

The purpose of this pre-application meeting is to informally meet with neighbors and facilitate two-way communication regarding the proposed project.

· The Harnish Auto Group has submitted building permits to add a new Volkswagen dealership to their River Road location. As proposed, the existing Buick-GMC building at 9th Avenue NW and River Road would be converted to a VW dealership. The Buick-GMC operation would move to another building on the site, as part of a major property redevelopment. This Volkswagen dealership represents the first new major automobile brand to come to Puyallup in several years.

· Total Wine and More, a large-scale purveyor of wine, beer and spirits, has submitted tenant improvement plans to move into an existing retail space in South Hill Village, near 31st Avenue and Meridian. This new retailer, with over 30,000 square feet of floor space, would occupy a vacant tenant space in the retail building now containing PetsMart, Sportsman’s Warehouse, and Big Lots.
