the scope of the prior ErRs, and no new environmental document nor Public Resources
Code 21081 findings are required.
2. That hillside conditions have been properly identified on the constraints map which show
existing and proposed conditions and slope percentages;
3. The undevelopable areas of the project, i.e. slopes over 40%, have been properly identified
on the constraints map;

the Hillside Ordinance, Chapter 21.95, in that the project's overall design will blend into the
