Dennis Delzeit, City Engineer �[? July 14, 1986 SUBJECT: Kavlico Grading Plans iTEM- il�__ STEVEN KUENY City Manager CHERYL J. KANE City Attorney RICHARD MORTON Director of Community Development R. DENNIS DELZEIT City Engineer JOHN V. GILLESPIE Chief of Police i G RECEIVED - J U L I 1986 CRY OF MOORPARK On June 27, 1986 the Kavlico Corporation submitted a revised grading plan for both the parking lot area and the borrow site area on their project. In reviewing the plans, we had some concerns which we felt you should be informed of and to also have the opportunity to provide us with your concerns prior to the approval of the plans. The following is a list of our concerns: 1. On the plans, it shows that the parking lot, which originally was to be south of the building, is now being moved to the west of the building and further away from Los Angeles Avenue. By moving the parking lot into this position, the grading operations will effect some scrub oak trees and other trees which are located west of the building. We feel that prior to signing of the plans, removal of any oak trees or any other trees shown on the plans, approval of the Planning Director shall be obtained because of the concerns raised in the EIR. 2. Because of the delays thus far with the grading of the borrow site area we feel that all grading on the borrow site west of the Happy Camp Creek should be completed within six weeks from the date of approval of the plans or prior to occupancy, whichever occurs sooner. Also within this six week period, we will require that the first hydroseeding application be applied including all necessary irrigation systems to guarantee plant establishment. 3. It is our understanding that there have been some delays with Southern California Edison moving power poles in the borrow site area, therefore causing delays in the final grading of the borrow site. We are requiring that the 799 Moorpark Avenue Moorpark, California 93021 (805) 529 -6864 Page -2- grading operations shall not be delayed beyond the six week period previously mentioned due to the non - removal of the power poles within the borrow site area. 4. Because of both the location of the borrow site and the extent of grading which will occur on the borrow site, we feel that the final graded slopes should imitate the surrounding natural slopes as much as possible. Therefore, we are recommending that all slopes be reviewed by both the City Engineer and the Planning Director prior to hydroseeding to insure that they conform with the contour grading and undulations as shown on the approved grading plans. Any slopes not meeting these requirements shall be reshaped to the satisfaction of both the City Engineer and the Planning Director. The above items represent the majority of the concerns found while performing the first plan check of the revised grading plans. As mentioned previously, we welcome your input and would be happy to incorporate any of your concerns in the plans. JW :go cc: John F.
