Nojse Attenuation
The' primary noise 'generators .e~pected to affect
Calavera Hills are highway: andstre'et noise, offroad
vehicle noise, construotion noise, and active parJq:;.
This section est~blishes met.hods of att.enuating $oupd
in th~ plan execution. -
Basically, attenuation is' 'of two types. The· f~rst o·f
these is normal attenuatiOr!-k~4:\ile, to .. distance. The
second is attenuation resulting from the introduction
of elements or b~rriers between the sound sourceahd
the.receiver.
Normal attenuation occurs as thes6'qrid tr.avels over a
distance. Maximizing distances from noise generq:t;:,or.s
and set-backs will accomplish thi·s·. Other· :ractors,
contributing to the reduction of soupd 'are climatic
condi tions and the introduction, of ·element.s betweeil
the sound source and the receiver.
In order to attenuate sound, combinations of grade
changes, slopes, ,plantings, walls' ·and. a~chi i:tectural
elements shall he employed to absorb, refleQt, deflect
and refract sound.. Examples o£ vario1J.s installations
are shown in the following exhibits .•

Fire Control
. .
All highly flammable vegetation shall be removed to
form a fire preak minimum ot th;Lrty .,feet from the "
structure, and the 'fire marshal shall have the disc:r:e..."
tionary flexibility to requi):'e as much as one hundred
feet from the structure. 'rhe ffre break area shall 0"
be maintaihed continuously to prevent the reinfestation'
of these fuels by proper planting and irrigation of,
less ~ or nearly non-flammabJ=e; ,orna;mental plant materials:
whose characteristics emulate t,he natural. :;;cheme •
. If the location of development occurs. at the crest of,
hills or adjacent to steep ravines, modification and
harvesting of the fire fuel within. the entire ravine
area may be necessary to protec.t against extremeiy
volatile fire storms that c<;)uld come up the ravine.
during a fir.e. " "
There shall be adequa,te fire vehicle .acCessibili ty to
the native areas via the streets and hicyc:J..e tr,ails
or special access fire roads aIfd 'easements per the' '
fire marshal requirements. All ,cl.eared and planted
natural and, manufactured are<?-s of slopes shown in the
examples shali be automatically irrigated andrttaintained
by a homeowner's association, rather than by individual
homeowners wherever practicable. '

e IV. OPEN SPACE AND" MAINTENANCE
. e
A.
B.
Introduction·
The plan for Calavera Hill§ Q9-1.!s~f.9r approximat~ly
175 acres to be set aside as-open ·space •. Th~ open ... ~
space corridors, as shown on Exhibit IV-I, provide
buffers' between residential areas and roads and
commercial and public . area-s' ,as ·wellas definen~:i,ghbor"" ,
hoods. A system of pedestrian and equestrian trai~s
will traverse the site iIf these corridors to connect
schools, parks, and the commercial· center with the
housing on the site~ TheSe trails may connect to a
broader citywide circulation system.
All open space including, but npt limited to, the open
space corridors ~hown on Exhibit IV..,I, shall be imp:r;oyed
and dedicated by the developer as a. condition of 'the
subdivision of the adjoining village pursuant to the'
. phasing 'Schedule contained in SectionV.
Dedication
Each developer shall dedicate an open space easement
over the open space corridors' Shown On Exhibit IV-l~
Each applicable developer shall also grant an ease-
ment for public access and use over the pedestrian
and equestri~n trails $hown on ~xhibit Iv-i. This
grant shall provide that these trails shall not be
opened for public access and use until the City exer-
cises its rights to assume :r;espqnsibility for the
maintenance of these tJ;:'ails. Adjoining areas., includ-
ing but not limited to slopes,: s·hall not be included'
. within the public easement nor within the area to be
maintained by the City. .
The width and location of the open space corridors
shall be as shown on Exhibit IV-I. A deviation of
ten percent (+10%) shall be ,allowed when determining
said width and· location. The minimum width allowed
shall be twenty feet. 'Additional open space areaS
may be required withip each yilla:ge devel0:r;>ment.
c. Improvements

controller to avoid over-watering arid pro..,.
vide plant material with the pJ;:"oper soil-
moisture relationship ~equired in the root
zone. All sprinklers having potential "
"run-off" from a higher elevation of sprinkler
heads should be supplied with check valves
to avoid' erosion and waster wq. 1;:er , run-off.'
Systems should be designed to operate in the
hours 11 p.m. to 6 a.m. Drip irrigation for
any area, using ,the proper system, should pe
considered if designed, correctly. It is
recommended only as automatic irrigation and
each area, by its merit, shouldpe,determined
for drip potential. This is the irrigation
designer's role in pursuing alternative
methods. '
2) Plant Material
Plant material usage can vary according to
the desired effect. It i,s recommended that
plants selected be representative o! the
'natural existing materia], as far as form,
color and textur~ are concel;'ned. ,Specific
plant varieties 'should be ,selected for their
fire resis,ti:mt quality.

Generally preferred are shtubs,of

they burn, can be easily established,
and will' grow under native site

or bikeway, s\lch as at a viewpoint. They consist
of an average 10' -x. 20 I soii cement pg.d with

Equestrian trails shall beprov:i.ded within the
open space corridors as shown on Exhibit IV-I.
A 10-foot graded trail, shall be the standard
width., In the undeveloped open space areas native

pass within' 7 5 feet of residential" commercial or
school areas, or a ,major roa,dway, surfa,ce' treat:"
ment such as decomposed granite, eucalyptus and/or
bean pod mUlch shall·be used to 'minimize dust.
Just as with the bikeways a:q.d, pedestrian trails,
the equestrian trail shall not' necessarily be
graded level in the direction of the trail. A
rolling and meandering 'path shall be the standard
alignment. The' trail grade s,hall be limit.ed to,
a maximum of 10% for distances g~eater than '500

20% for extreme qases, (le~s. than; 300 feet).
The trails shall be.'kept separate from ,both the
bikeway a~d pedestrian trails in. distances or'
differences in vertical elevation. Normally, the
'equestrain trails shall be positioned downwind b£
'the other trails. ,Wherever the trail may need,
to cross a roadway, signs shall be placed which
follow the International Code by show;i.ng a horse-' ,
'man on a horse with "Equestr'ian Crossing II, below. '
