Compliance with guidelines established in the
September, 1976 Fire Protection Planning Task
Force Report, adopted by the Orange County
Board of Supervisors and entitled "Fire Hazard
Background Report and Recommendations for the
Reduction of Fire Hazard at the Natural Open
Space/Urban Development Interface Orange
County, California."
Provision of fire-resistant roofing materials,
Class A minimum.
Visual, drainage and slope erosion impacts
from any proposed parcelization resulting from
slope conditions are within either the
property owner's management and control or the
Homeowners' Association, whichever is
applicable.
Sites are planned in such a way so as to
preserve or enhance important vistas and
maintain the overall landform character of the
land use area, particularly those seen from
public places.
Preservation of the open space values of the
central Peters Canyon ridge as identified in
the ETSP by excluding buildings and overhead
utility lines from being developed on the top
of the ridgeline and by careful siting of
structures and landscaping adjacent to the
ridgeline.
Where feasible, grading and 'siting reflects
the natural topography of the land, drainage
patterns and minimizes creation of excessively
large leveled areas by grading.
Grading on hillside areas will soften hard
edges left by cut and fill operations· Where
an adverse visual impact may occur, rounded
finished contours have been required.
Grading slopes (cut of fill), including
roadsides, will undergo permanent re-
vegetation in a timely manner' to minimize
change of erosion and siltation.

10. Provision for drainage and erosion control
made to avoid any damage to existing
landforms.
11. Provision and approval of an independent
engineering study concerning the potential
impacts of slope instability, liquefaction,
landslide and seismic potential for proposed
development within a Geologic Hazard Special
Study Zone.
12. The natural profile and landform character of
the knoll identified in the. ETSP is
maintained.
13. Roadway alignment and grading impacts in
hillside areas are minimized and hillside
roadways are designed consistent with
guidelines contained in the Grading Manual.
14. Slope gradients will vary when adjacent to
· roadways to create open areas to be planted,
thus softening the appearance of man-made
slopes.
15. Preparation and recordation of a declaration
of covenants, conditions and restrictions
providing for the development and maintenance
of slopes and drainage devices will be a
condition of approval on Vesting Tentative
Tract 14410.
