No person, firm, or corporation shall engage in topsoil removal from land within the city for purposes other than the construction of structures, landscaping and other developmental additions to said land pursuant to an existing building permit when the topsoil removal is under 100 cubic yards without first being issued site plan review approval in accordance with this chapter and the full administrative review provisions of Section 1C.040 of the City of Lacey Development Guidelines and Public Works Standards. Provided, however, that this chapter shall not apply for a period of two years from the date of the passage of the ordinance codified in this chapter to those parcels of land where topsoil was being actively removed on April 1, 1986, or within six months prior to April 1, 1986, unless said topsoil removal operations cease for a period of more than six months. Upon expiration of said two years, or upon topsoil removal operations ceasing for more than six months within said two-year time period, topsoil removal operations from said land shall conform to this chapter in the same manner as topsoil removal from all other lands within the city. (Ord. 1192 §47, 2002; Ord. 775 (part), 1986).
