MEMORANDUM
To: The Honorable City Council
, From: John F. Knipe, Assistant City Engineer
Date: April 11, 1990 ((9C - `//%g/'TU
Subject: TRACT NO. 4081 (COLMER)
ADDITIONAL GRADING QUANTITIES
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
In the attached letter, Colmer Development requests a change to the approved
grading plans. This change in grading plan only affects Lot No. 13 with
elevations to be lowered, at most, 21 feet.
As required by adopted City Council policy, elevation changes in excess of 2 feet
must be reviewed and approved by City Council .
DISCUSSION
As experienced by other developers, additional earthwork quantities are typically
needed to complete a project. As is usually the case, actual shrinkage factors
are typically higher than originally anticipated. In this case, it resulted in
a shortfall of 29,500 cubic yards of available earth to complete the grading on
Tract No. 4081.
Under the proposed change, Lot 13 would be lowered, at most, 21 feet over the
cross-hatched area shown on the attached map. The shaded area, to be graded
under the requested change, was to remain open space under the original grading
plan.
The proposed grading change on Lot 13 will continue to contain all grading
operations on-site.

Both the Director of Community Development and City Engineer have reviewed the
preliminary plans for this proposed change. Though other options were
considered, the proposed change is the best alternative since this graded area
cannot be seen from Grimes Canyon Road. This proposed change should also
maintain the existing contours and an open space appearance.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council approve the following:
1. The basic grading plan to revise elevations on Lot 13 in Tract No.
4081 .
2. That the proposed changes maintain existing contours and an open
space appearance.
3. That revised grading plans be submitted for review and approval by
City Engineer and Director of Community Development.
4. That the developer pay all applicable fees for City review of revised
grading plans.

Re: Tract 4081 - Grading
Dear Pat and John:
Our grading is nearing completion, and we must make some field
adjustments to balance the grading on the project so there is no need of
import. A shortage of dirt has occurred on the project primarily due to
shrinkage which occurred during the slide removal . The large amount of
shrinkage was unanticipated. At the current time, we are short 29, 500
c.y. of dirt needed to raise the pad area on Lot 7 to the elevations we
have shown on our grading plan. We propose generating this extra dirt
by enlarging the cut pad area on Lot 13 . By expanding the cut on this
pad, we will generate the 29, 500 c.y. that is needed. We will follow
the existing contour lines on the hill surrounding the pad, so that the
pad is cut utilizing the existing topography. This pad is not visible
from Grimes Canyon Road.
I am attaching a reduced grading plan showing the existing pad and the
expanded pad cut on Lot 13. The hill that we will be cutting to
generate the dirt is at an elevation of 769 feet, and we are proposing
it be lowered to 748 feet.
Our grading operation is nearing completion, and we would appreciate
this item be put on the City Council's agenda as soon as possible, so
that there will be no disruption of our grading activity.
Sincerely,
a.) ,
