Tract 3963 is located in the northeast section of the City
of Moorpark adjacent to Moorpark College. A location map is
enclosed for your reference. In the attached letter, the
developer is requesting that pad elevations within Tract
3963-3 be lowered between 5 to 10 feet from the approved
tentative tract map.
The tentative map and development conditions for Tract 3963
were approved by the City Council on February 18, 1986.
On September 15, 1986, the City Council adopted the
Conceptual Grading Policy, which requires any elevation
changes of more than 2 feet between the tentative map and
final grading plan to be approved by the City Council.
Tract 3963-3 is presently located in a canyon. The original
tentative grading plan was designed to rase the elevations
within the canyon with. fill material from Phase 4 of Tract
3963.
The developer has learned since approval of the original
tentative tract map that the proposed rip -rap channel on the
west side of Tract 3963-3 is not acceptable to the Ventura
County Flood Control District. Instead, a rectangular
concrete channel will be constructed. This rectangular
channel along with the proposed retention basin at the north
boundary of Tract 3963-3 will handle the storm water flows
from the hills to the north.

These conditions allow for a lowering of the streets and
pads within Tract 3963-3. The developer is thus proposing
to lower the pad elevations within Phase 3 by 5 to 10 feet.
Please refer to the attached map which shows the original
land proposed elevations of each pad within Phase 3.
The City Engineer's office has reviewed the revised grading
plan relative to slope stability, drainage, and erosion
protection. The revised plan is equal to the approved
tentative map in these respects. The revised plan also
result in less borrow material removed from Tract 3963-4.
In conformance with the conceptual grading policy, the
Director of Community Development also reviewed the proposed
changes for aesthetics, viewshed and conformance with the
General Plan. The proposed elevation changes are approved
in these respects.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the proposed elevation
of Tract 3963 (Griffin) as
revised tentative i

Grading
Gentlemen:
We are attaching herewith a coppy of a Tentative Map indicating
grade changes of more that two N) feet.
Ventura County Flood ControlDistrict has advised they will not
accept a rip -rap channel a.s proposed on the West side of Tract
3963-3 and will require a rectangular concrete channel. This
requirement allows the area to be lowered several feet. In
addition, a retention basin as proposed at the North boundary
will allow the lowering of the streets and pads. This above
lowering will result in the requirement for importing less dirt
from Unit 4 to Unit 3.
We request that you forward your recommendations for approval of
this grade change to the City Council prior to our firm
proceeding with the final design for the project. We thank you
for you consideration regarding this request.
Sincerely
RAMSEYER AND ASSOCIATES, INC.
