and drawn on a plan that reflects final grading
configuration, in conformance with the City of Moorpark
Landscape Standards and Guidelines, policies and NPDES
requirements; including, but not limited to, all
specifications and details and maintenance plan. . Fences
and walls shall be shown on the Landscape and Irrigation
Plans, including connection, at the applicant's expense, of
property line walls with existing fences and or walls on
any adjacent residential, commercial or industrial
properties. The plan shall maintain proper vehicle sight
distances subject to the review of the City Engineer, and
encompass all required planting areas consistent with these
Conditions of Approval. Review by the City's Landscape
Architect Consultant and City Engineer, and approval by the
Community Development Director prior to issuance of a
Zoning Clearance for building permit, is required.
52. Prior to or concurrently with the submittal of the
landscape and irrigation plan, a lighting plan, along with
required deposit, shall be submitted to the Community
Development Director for review and approval. The lighting
plan, prepared by an electrical engineer registered in the
State of California, shall be in conformance with the
Moorpark Municipal Code.
53. Unless otherwise stipulated in the Special Conditions of
Approval, any median landscaping constructed by the project
shall be maintained by the City. An Assessment District
shall be formed to fund the City maintenance costs for any
such median landscaping.
54. When and if stipulated in the Special Conditions of
Approval that certain identified parkway landscaping and /or
drainage improvements are to be maintained by the City, an
Assessment District shall be formed to fund City costs for
such maintenance. In such event, any required landscape
easements or drainage easements for these purposes shall be
conveyed to the City.
55. The City reserves the right to assume the maintenance of
parkway landscaping, median landscaping or drainage
improvements being maintained by a Private Responsible
Party, should it be determined by the City, at its sole
discretion, that the maintenance being provided by the
Private Responsible Party is inadequate. Accordingly, any
landscape easement or drainage easement granted to a
Private Responsible Party for such purpose, shall also be
Resolution No. 2004 -2231

deeded as an irrevocable offer of dedication to the City.
Typically the City would not accept this irrevocable offer
unless and until the City determined that it was necessary
for the City to assume the maintenance of the facilities
within those easements.
56. If required by a Special Condition of Approval, an
Assessment District [herein "Back -Up District "] shall be
formed to fund future City costs, should they occur, for
the maintenance of parkway landscaping, median landscaping
or drainage improvements previously maintained by a Private
Responsible Party and then assumed by the City. If a Back -
Up District is formed, it shall be the intent of the City
to approve the required assessment each year, but to only
levy that portion of the assessment necessary to recover
any past City costs or any anticipated City costs for the
following fiscal year. In the event the City is never
required to assume the maintenance of any such improvements
maintained by a Private Responsible Party, the amount of
the annual assessment actually levied upon the affected
properties would be minor amount, possibly zero. The City
shall administer the annual renewal of the Back -Up District
and any costs related to such administration shall be
charged to the Fund established for such district revenues
and expenses.
57. When it has been determined that it is necessary to form an
Assessment District (including a Back -Up District), the
applicant shall be required to undertake and complete the
following:
a. At least one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the
issuance of any zoning clearance for building permit,
which ever comes first:
i. submit the final draft plans for any irrigation,
landscaping or Drainage Improvements [herein
"Maintained Areas "] to be maintained by the
Assessment District (including a required Back -Up
District), along with any required plan checking
fees;
ii. submit a check in the amount of $5,000 as an
advance to cover the cost of Assessment
Engineering for the formation of the Assessment
District [Note: Developer shall be required to
pay for all final actual assessment engineering

Page 20
costs related to the Assessment District
formation along with City administrative costs.];
b. At least sixty (60) days prior to the issuance of any
zoning clearance for building permit, which ever comes
first, submit to the City the completed, "City
approved" plans for the Maintained Areas (landscaping,

building permit, submit to the City a signed Petition
and Waiver requesting formation of the Assessment
District [Note: The Petition and Waiver shall have
attached to it as Exhibit `A' the City approved final
draft Engineer's Report prepared by the Assessment
Engineer retained by the City.
58. Tree pruning, consisting of excessive trimming to limit the
height and /or width of tree canopy, resulting in a
reduction of required shade coverage for the parking lot
area, is prohibited and will be considered a violation of
the project approval and Conditions of Approval, and
subject to code compliance action. Removal of dead trees
and tree pruning to remove unhealthy branches is permitted.
Tree removal requires compliance with the Planned
Development Permit requirements and Municipal Code tree
preservation requirements. Tree pruning and trimming
required to maintain adequate line -of -site distance at
intersections, as required by the City Engineer, shall be
permitted subject to the approval of the City Engineer and
Community Development Director.
