around the nest that shall be maintained until the young have fledged. Failure to maintain the fenced buffer area shall result in the immediate issuance of a stop work order and cessation of activity. Outside the breeding season, no pre-construction breeding bird surveys are required. (PROJECT SPECIFIC CONDITION) 20. SAN FRANCISCO DUSKY-FOOTED WOODRAT: The applicant shall retain a qualified biologist to conduct a pre-construction nest survey at least 15 days before the onset of construction to verify the presence of active San Francisco Dusky Footed Woodrat nests. All active woodrat nests that would be directly impacted will be flagged and avoided if feasible. Failure to flag and avoid an active nest shall result in the immediate issuance of a stop work order and cessation of activity. If avoidance is not feasible, the nests shall remain undisturbed until the young mature and leave the nest. The nest material will then be moved to a suitable, permanent natural area of the site as directed by the biologist. (PROJECT SPECIFIC CONDITION) 21. ROOSTING BATS: The applicant shall retain a qualified biologist to conduct a pre-construction bat roost survey at least 15 days before the onset of construction to verify the presence of any active bat roosts. A combination of visual surveys and acoustic detection equipment will be used at each potential roost from one hour before sunset, to two hours after sunset. If an active bat roost is observed, the applicant shall establish and maintain a buffer area around the site until earthmoving activities are completed or until September. Failure to maintain the buffer area shall result in the immediate issuance of a stop work order and cessation of activity. (PROJECT SPECIFIC CONDITION) 22. BIG TARPLANT: The applicant shall retain a qualified biologist to conduct a pre-construction survey at least 15 days before the onset of construction to verify the presence of the big tarplant plant species on the individual building sites. If identified as present on the building sites, the building site will be subject to a prepared mitigation plan designed to preserve and protect the affected species from construction-related impacts. (PROJECT SPECIFIC CONDITION) 23. BIOLOGICAL MEASURES: The statements in Conditions 17 through 22 shall be added to all site plans, grading plans, and/or improvement plans covering this individual building site. (PROJECT SPECIFIC CONDITION) Green Building and Sustainability Measures 24. PHOTOVOLTAIC AND SOLAR WATER HEATING SYSTEMS: All residences shall be constructed to allow for future installation of a photovoltaic (PV) system and a solar water heating system. The measures shall be shown on the building permit plans for review and approval by the Director of Community Development prior to building permit issuance. The applicant shall provide the future owners the necessary information delineating the means by which photovoltaic panels can be applied to the roofs of the structures covered by this approval. This information shall be reviewed and approved by the Director of Community Development prior to occupancy of the first unit. The applicant shall comply with the following requirements for making all units on the subject site photovoltaic-ready and solar water heating-ready: a. Electrical conduit and cable pull strings shall be installed from the roof/attic area to the buildings' main electrical panels; b. An area shall be provided near the electrical panel for the installation of an "inverter" required to convert the direct current output from the photovoltaic panels to alternating current; c. Engineer the roof trusses to handle an additional load as determined by a structural engineer to accommodate the additional weight of a prototypical photovoltaic system beyond that anticipated for roofing; P19-0059 Planning Commission Page 4 of 12
