DATE: OCTOBER 6, 1995 (COUNCIL MEETING OF OCTOBER 18, 1995)
SUBJECT: L.K.P. PROPERTIES GRADING EXPORT (APN 500- 00- 34 -22)
Background:
This item is presented to the City Council in compliance with City
policy requiring that import /export, exceeding 10 truckloads, be
approved by the City.
Discussion:
On September 7, 1995 the developer's engineer submitted his
grading plan to the Engineering Department for review and
approval. This plan indicated that import of over 28,000 Cubic
Yards of material are proposed to be transported to the site and
spread out over 12 acres in a roughly one foot thick layer (see
location in attached Exhibit 1). The material will be used for
agricultural and drainage purposes and is not being used for
construction purposes at this time. Because the material being
imported will be placed uncompacted, a Notice of Uncertified Fill
will be recorded. It has been a standard practice, in the City of
Moorpark and Ventura County, to record a Notice of Uncertified
Fill in situations where fill material is placed without
compaction certifications. This precludes building permit issuance
on such sites until the fill is approved by the agency.
The proposed import haul route will have trucks entering from the
west along Los Angeles Avenue, proceeding north on Gabbert Road to
an access road located just north of the Southern Pacific Railroad
crossing and right -of -way. From there the trucks will proceed
west along the access road to the site. This access road crosses
2 (two) adjacent properties. Trucks leaving the site will follow
the same route and exit the City going west along Los Angeles
Avenue.
Permission to haul across the adjacent properties has not yet been
verified and is being sought by the owner of the L.K.P. property
at this time. The applicant will be conditioned to provide those
approvals prior to issuance of a grading permit.
The amount of import is expected to require approximately 2,000
truck trips to the site. An average truck volume along the haul
route of 250 vehicles per day or 30 -40 trucks per hour can be
expected. It is anticipated that this haul work will take 1 -2
weeks to complete.
Recommendation:
Approve the requested import quantity and haul route with
following conditions:
1. The hauling hours shall be limited between the hours of 9
A.M. and 3 P.M. Monday through Friday.
2. Daily clean up of the haul route will be required (including
daily street sweeping, if necessary, or as directed by the
City Engineer).
3. Prior to grading permit issuance a cash deposit of $500 shall
be made to the City to insure regular clean up of the haul
route. If the deposit is expended, import will proceed only
upon replenishment of the deposit amount of $500.
3. The applicant shall secure, in writing, permission to
ingress /egress all private properties between Gabbert Road
and the project site over the length of the haul route.
4. Tarpaulins shall be required on all haul vehicles to cover
the load.
