2. The project design is in conformance with the development and design standards of
the Hillside Development Regulations and the Hillside Development Guidelines. The
project site contains several small isolated areas of 40% slopes that are less than
fifteen feet in slope height and less than 4,000 sq. fi. in area. The Planning
Commission finds that these 40% slope areas have been Nly identified and arc
excluded from the requirements of the ordinance per Section 21.95.090 of thc
Municipal Code.
3. The development proposal and all applicable development approvals and permits an
consistent with the purpose, intent, and requirements of this chapter and that the
project design substantially confoms to the intent of the concepts illustrated in the
hillside development guidelines manual for the following reasons:
a) All manufactured cut and fiIl slopes would be contour graded and would no1
exceed a height of 30 feet;
b) The project's grading volumes of 8,530 cubic yards/graded acre and would
fall within the "potentially acceptable range" of 8,0OO-10,000 cubic yds/acre.
The Planning Director and City Engineer concur that the written findings
contained on Exhibit 'W, dated September 1, 1993 are adequate to jus*
the proposed grading volumes;
c) Landscaping in conformance with the Citfs Landscape Guidelines Manual
would be provided on all manufactured slopes to visually screen the slopes
and to reduce erosion;
d) The apartment buildings within the project would have varying roof lines and
sloping roofs;
e) Structures would be setback from the top of manufactured slopes from 10 to
20 feet;
4. No development or grading will occur in those portions of the property which are undevelopable pursuant to the provisions of Section 21.53.230 of this code, because
all undevelopable areas have been identified and no development or grading would
occur in the areas containing 40%+ slopes (except for small isolated areas of 40%
slope which are exempt).
5. The project design and lot configuration minimizes disturbance of hillside lands,
because the proposed grading would create building pads that are terraced for views
and would step down the slope. The local streets and manufactured slopes would
be curving and are aligned to follow the natural contours. The street alignments
and curving landform graded slopes would reduce visual impacts created by the
grading and help simulate the natural slope conditions.
