This haz Deen discussed wi�h Mr.Randy Clark of Select Homes,hfr.Pat McCuutt of Universal Brokerage Corporation,and Mr. Michael Crowson of W&H Pacific. We Aave observed r,o siy�s ot insubility on native slopes tn Divisions ti' and IV. Fill slopes on Divisions III and IV wae conswaed with swctural fill consisting of omsiu granular soils undcr(ull-timt moniWring ot a qualified individual trom our firm. 7te swctural fill is keyod into exis[ing fimi native soils and fill placed m achieve ihe final slope grades has been propedy benched into existing native materials and compacted to 95 percent o(MDD(mazimum dry denciry)according to the specificatiorts of the AST�7 Dd557 test procedure. In addi�ion,the lots are gradod to slope away Rom thc wps of slopes and ali siopes have been covcr�l w�ith jutc matting and hydroseeded for erosion protection. In our opinion, where slopes Aave bcen piacod, compacted, graded, and vegetated az described above,the minimum building setback distance can be reduced io 10 feet. The setback distance is the horizontal distance meuured @om the front face of the footing to the face of the slope. It should be understood that if the sMback distance is reduced to 10 teet, the riskc o( losing accas, reducing tAe design life of the(ounda�ions and having siope movement impact ihe house foundations are incrcased. r�� . .
