A preliminary geological investigation
and soils report.
That pursuant to Section 8914(c) (8) of the
Tustin City Code, the Planning Commission has
reviewed the subject application for Hillside
Review using the guidelines for hillside
grading contained in the Grading Manual to
ensure the attainment of the following
objectives:
Compliance with the GradinG Manual and
Hillside Guidelines contained in the
manual.
·
Compliance with guidelines established in
the September, 1976 Fire Protection

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 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
revegetation 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
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. 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 cf
approval on Tract 14397.
