to integrate the design of the planned buildings on these lots with the nearby single- family homes and surrounding area. Staff, therefore, believes that this finding can be made. Whether the proposed development plan is compatible with the natural, topo- graphic features of the site: The portion of Sycamore Creek that bisects that the subject property would be main- tained in its natural state. Adequate building and grading setbacks are employed in this development plan that would serve to prevent impacts to the creek channel as well as to downstream properties. Staff, therefore, believes that this finding can be made. Whether grading in conjunction with the proposed development plan takes into ac- count environmental characteristics and is designed in keeping with the best engi- neering practices to avoid erosion, slides, or flooding, and to have as minimal an ef- fect upon the environment as possible. · The proposed grading would create flat building pads for these lots. Excess storm water runoff would be directed into bio-swales before entering Sycamore Creek. All construction activities are limited to the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. All construction equipment must meet Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) noise standards and shall be equipped with muffling devices. Staff, therefore, believes that this finding can be made. Whether adequate public safety measures have been incorporated into the design of the proposed development plan: · The subject property is not located in an Alquist-Priolo Special study zone. All construction would be designed to meet the requirements of the Uniform Building Code, other applicable City codes, and State of California mandated noise, energy, and accessibility requirements. · The project site adjoins an existing public street and private street with adequate emergency vehicle access. Staff; therefore, believes that this finding can be made. Item 6. a., PUD-42 and PSP-08 Page 16 of 18 February 9, 20~)5
