Pierce County is reviewing four projects affecting Puyallup residents: a residential site development, a subdivision, a lot split, and forest harvesting. The Himenes project involves correcting fill and grade work on a 12. 27-acre parcel. D. R. Horton proposes 72 lots on 14. 25 acres with 57,266 square feet for recreation. The Coad family seeks to divide an 8. 97-acre lot with 50% open space. Frontier Park forest harvesting will remove 18. 5 acres of timber.
Pierce County Planning and Public Works is also considering code changes for solar energy and battery storage systems. These changes would require project-specific permits for such installations. Public comments on all projects are due by September 3, 2026.
Residents should note these projects will impact local land use and environmental planning. The county will hold public hearings before making final decisions on each proposal.
