Puyallup City Council approved a proposal for a 30,000-gallon propane bulk storage facility at 423 23rd St SE. The project includes a 4,000-square-foot office/shop building and stormwater infrastructure on a 1. 13-acre parcel. The application was filed by Seth Hale and is now open for public comments until July 22.

The facility would be located in an industrial area of Puyallup, not in a residential neighborhood. Pierce County's SEPA record shows the project is classified as ODNS/NOA, indicating it requires environmental review. The proposed site is near the Puyallup River, raising potential flood and water quality concerns.

The city's next step is to review public feedback before making a final decision. Residents can submit comments via the Pierce County SEPA website or attend a public hearing. The project is part of Puyallup's ongoing development along its eastern corridor.
