Lacey City Council is reviewing a proposed 48-unit Taylorwood Cottages Planned Residential Development on 6. 8 acres at 6140 Yelm Highway SE in Lacey, Washington. SCA Group submitted the application on June 18, 2026, with public comments due by July 6. The project includes 36 cottage-style homes and 4 townhome-style units, featuring pedestrian-first infrastructure, stormwater management, and landscaping. The development would be built along Yelm Highway SE, a major corridor in Lacey. The project's SEPA (State Environmental Policy Act) record shows it is classified as an ODNS/NOA (Official Development Not Subject to SEPA), meaning it may not require full environmental review. The Lacey City Council will consider the proposal at a future meeting. The project's approval process could affect housing options in the Lacey area, particularly along Yelm Highway SE, which is a key route in the city's eastside.
