Resolution No. PC-96-22 Page 4 The restaurant and retail commercial uses for the site would be compatible with the surrounding commercial uses to the south, west, and east. In addition, since the subject buildings would be separated from the adjacent residences by public streets, commercial buildings, and landscaped areas, impacts on adjacent residential properties would be limited. The proposed development would require limited grading for the construction of the buildings. 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 and circulation areas. The property is not located in an Alquist-Priolo Study Zone. Grading conducted on the site will be subject to engineering and building standards. Erosion control and dust suppression measures will be documented in the building permit plans and will be administered by the City's Building and Public Works Departments. According to the United States Federal Emergency Management Agency Flood Hazard maps, no portion of the site is located in a flood hazard zone. 5. The streets and buildings have been designed and located to complement the natural terrain and landscape: The subject site is an in-fill location in a developed area; however, the proposed development will still afford views of surrounding hillsides. No new streets are proposed with the proposed application. No significant forms oflandscaping would be removed for the proposed development. 6. Adequate public safety measures have been incorporated into the design ofthe plan: Several public safety measures have been incorporated into the design of the proposed development plan. The location and configuration of the project driveway assure safe ingress/egress between the site and Pimlico Drive. Parking spaces are in relatively close proximity to the proposed buildings. Pedestrian and drive-through traffic are separated. Adequate access is provided to all structures for police, fire, and other emergency vehicles.
