Resolution No. PC-97-65 Page 3 4. The grading takes into account environmental characteristics and is designed in keeping with the best engineering practices to avoid erosion, slides, or flooding to have as minimal an effect upon the environment as possible. The subject property is relatively flat. Grading will be limited to building pads, driveways, surface parking, and creation of recreation areas and amenities. City building code requirements would ensure that building foundations, on-site driveways, and parking areas are constructed on properly prepared surfaces. As conditioned, the design of the proposed development would provide adequate drainage to prevent flooding. Erosion control and dust suppression measures will be documented in the building permit plan sets and will be administered by the City's Building and Public Works Departments. Urban clean water runoff measures will be incorporated into the project through conditions of approval. The property is not located in the Alquist-Priolo Study Zone. According to the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development Flood Hazard maps, no portion ofthe site will be affected by the 100-year or 500-year floods. 5. The streets and buildings have been designed and located to complement the natural terrain and landscape. The project site is an "infill" parcel which would not involve the extension of any new public streets. Only minor changes in the site's relatively flat topography will be necessary to develop the site. The major entrance to the project aligns with and makes use of the existing Rosewood Drive/Owens Drive intersection. Secondary entrances provide left-turns into the project from protected turn lanes and unrestricted turns onto Owens and Hacienda Drives out of the project. All buildings exceed the minimum 33 foot setback requirement for residential buildings within the Hacienda Business Park. 6. Adequate public safety measures have been incorporated into the design of the plan. The public improvements associated with this project would be consistent with City design standards. All driveway entrances are located and configured to provide an adequate line-of-sight viewing distance in both directions perpendicular to the vehicle, and to facilitate efficient ingress/egress to and from the project site. All on-site driveways meet City standards for emergency vehicle access and turn-around. All parking areas meet City standards and are adequate to handle anticipated traffic volumes. Buildings are designed to meet the requirements of the Uniform Building Code and other applicable City codes and all buildings would be equipped with automatic fire suppression systems (sprinklers). Adequate access is provided to all structures for police, fire, and other emergency vehicles. 7. The plan conforms to the purposes of the PUD District. _._.--~-_.,-_._...__.,.- --
