OLYMPIA — A Bothell-based real estate company has proposed a distribution center near 93rd Avenue Southwest, according to city of Tumwater public records.

Puget Western Inc. wants to build a 1-million-square-foot warehouse within about 65 acres at 2311 93rd Ave. SW. The project will include loading bays, vehicle parking, landscaping, stormwater collection, and treatment areas, as well as water and sewer extensions, utility connections and street improvements, according to application information.

The developer doesn’t mention the tenant for the warehouse, but does say that 300-500 people will work at the site once it opens.

The city says a public hearing is not required for this project, but it is subject to the city’s comprehensive plan, zoning ordinance, critical areas ordinance, and tree protection ordinance.

The proposal also must be reviewed under the state Environmental Policy Act, according to the city. The notice of application to the city triggers a public comment period. Written comments can be sent by email to Tumwater permit manager Chris Carlson at ccarlson@ci.tumwater.wa.us.

Comments must be received by 5 p.m. Feb. 7, according to the city.
