BACKGROUND INFORMATION
At the June 2, 1986 Council meeting, the City Council

The following is presented for the City Council's
consideration:
Policy -Conceptual Grading Plans

DP's, where grading quantities will be equal to or
greater than 50 cubic yards, a conceptual grading plan
shall accompany the tentative tract map. This
conceptual plan shall show pad elevations, tops and
toes of slopes and the general drainage pattern. Where
siltation basins, retention basins, or where debris
basins are envisioned, the grading plan shall show the
location of same. If it is anticipated that the cut
and fill volumes will not balance, the borrow site or
fill site shall be shown. If these sites are within
the City limits it shall be so indicated.
2. The Community Development Director shall provide
recommendations concerning conceptual grading plans at
the tentative tract map, parcel maps, LDM or DP stage
of the project. His focus shall be aesthetics,
viewshed and conformance to the City General Plan~ The
City Engineer shall provide appropriate recommendations
relative to the slope of stability, drainage, erosion
protection and related items.

3. The final grading plan shall be in substantial
compliance with the conceptual grading plan submitted
at the tentative map stage. This determination shall
be made by the City Engineer. Minor changes may be
approved by the City Engineer, administratively, where.
the elevations do not deviate by more than two feet
from the approved tentative map elevations, provided no
adverse situations are created relative to slope
stability, drainage, erosion, aesthetics or viewshed.
If it is deemed that the grading plan is not in
substantial compliance with the conceptual grading plan
approved at the tentative stage, the City Engineer
shall submit a report with recommendations to the City
Council. For those grading plans that do not conform
with the conceptual plan, a grading permit shall not be
issued without the prior approval of the City Council.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the foregoing
policy.
