3) Data on lot sizes, parcel size, proposed lot coverage <br /> of buildings and structures, type of dwelling units, <br /> square footage, dimensions, general type of construc- <br /> tion and location of all structures. <br /> 4) The existing and proposed utility systems including <br /> sanitary sewers, electric, gas, and telephone. <br /> 5) The proposed system for retention and release (detention) <br /> of storm and surface water runoff generated from the site. <br /> 6) A general landscaping plan indicating the type and placement <br /> of materials used around all structures, parking areas and <br /> other cleared portions of the site. <br /> 7) Sufficient data to indicate the relationship between the <br /> proposed development and existing and proposed adjacent <br /> areas. <br /> 8) In addition, an engineering feasibility study shall be <br /> required before any such development occurs on any steep <br /> slope subject to a higher possibility or risk of erosion, <br /> slides or other earth movement due to a combination of: <br /> (a) slopes greater than fifteen percent (15%) and (b) <br /> impermeable subsurface material (typically silt and clay) <br /> sometimes interbedded with permeable subsurface material <br /> (predominantly sand and gravel) between the top and base <br /> (foot) elevations. <br /> b. In evaluating the site plan and the feasibility study where required, <br /> the City shall assure that it conforms to the following: <br /> 1) All development shall provide for the maximum feasible <br /> retention of natural topographic features such as drainage <br /> swales, streams, slopes, ridge lines, rock outcroppings, <br /> vistas, natural plant formations, and significant trees. <br /> 2) Where grading is necessary, it shall be shaped to complement <br /> the natural land forms of steep slopes and hillsides. <br /> 3) Successive padding or terracing of building sites shall be <br /> prohibited. <br /> 4) The proposed means of access, parking and basic internal <br /> circulation for vehicular and pedestrian traffic shall be <br /> safe and shall follow natural topography, wherever possible, <br /> in order to minimize cutting, filling, grading and the <br /> scarring effects of steep slope and hillside street construction. <br /> 5) Dwellings and other structures shall be clustered wherever <br /> soil conditions permit to preserve the natural terrain. <br /> 6) Imaginative and innovative building techniques shall be <br /> utilized wherever possible to create buildings suited to <br /> natural steep slope and hillside surroundings. <br /> -2- <br />
