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 East Tustin Specific Plan 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 1 3 4 7 9 10 11 13 14 15 18 9_1" 22 9.4 9.5 26 9.7 28 Resolution No. 2970 Page 3 revegetation in a timely manner to minimize change of erosion and siltation. 10.

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 East Tustin Specific Plan 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.
