the means by which photovoltaic panels can be applied to the roofs of the structures cov- <br />ered by this approval. This information shall be submitted to the Director of Planning for <br />review and approval prior to occupancy of the first unit. <br /> <br />56. <br /> <br />The project developer shall work with the Planning staff and with representatives of the <br />Sacramento Municipal Utility District to develop a program for the bulk purchase of <br />photovoltaic panels/equipment for this project. This information shall be brought back to <br />the Planning Commission for its review with the tentative subdivision map. <br /> <br />Existing Trees: <br /> <br />57. <br /> <br />No trees shall be removed other than those specifically designated for removal in the <br />"Schedule of Trees to be Removed Hahner" and the "Schedule of Trees to be Removed <br />Costas". The project developer shall post cash, letter of credit, or other security satisfac- <br />tory to the Planning Director in the amount of five thousand dollars ($5,000) for each tree <br />required to be preserved, up to a maximum of twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000). <br />This cash bond or security shall be retained for one (1) year following acceptance of pub- <br />lic improvements or completion of construction, whichever is later, and shall be forfeited <br />if the trees are destroyed or substantially damaged. <br /> <br />58. <br /> <br />Construction of the proposed project could result in the disturbance of active raptor nests, <br />which are protected under California State Fish and Game (CSFG) Code Section Code <br />Section 3503.5. If grading is to begin during the raptor nesting season (February 1 to <br />August 31), a focused survey for raptor nests shall be conducted by a qualified biologist <br />during the nesting season. The survey shall be conducted no less than fourteen (14) days, <br />and no more than thirty (30) days, prior to the beginning of grading and/or tree removal. <br />If nesting raptors are found during the focused survey, no grading or tree removal shall <br />occur within five hundred feet (500' 0") of an active nest nntil the young have fledged - <br />as determined by a qualified biologist - or until the project developer receives written <br />fi.om CSFG personnel to proceed. The written findings of the biologist shall be provided <br />to the Planning Director within thirty (30) days of the start of grading. <br /> <br />59. <br /> <br />For the twenty-nine (29) orchard trees and non-heritage/non-orchard trees to be removed <br />from the Costas and Hahner properties in conjunction with this development, the project <br />developer shall replace these trees on a replacement ratio of one (1), twenty-four-inch <br />(24") box-size tree for each tree being removed. These replacement trees shall be in ad- <br />dition to the trees shown on the proposed landscape plans and shall be shown on the im- <br />provement plans for this development before issuance of a grading/on-site permit. <br /> <br />60. <br /> <br />The project developer shall submit the improvement plans, tract grading plans, and build- <br />ing permit construction plans to HortScience for review in order to determine that site- <br />specific measures required to preserve the existing trees designated for preservation dur- <br />ing construction are being implemented with the plans. The consultant's comments shall <br />be submitted to the Planning Director and to the City's Landscape Architect and shall be <br /> <br />Page- 15- <br /> <br /> <br />
