Building form, wall plane surfaces, and roofs are generally varied throughout the project. Bay windows are used on most of the second-and third-floor end elevations to articulate and vary the building form. Proposed building materials and colors have been selected to complement the adjacent contemporary structures. 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 project site is relatively flat. On-site grading will be completed in conformance with city standards. Finish grades will match surrounding development. Drainage system improvements will be subject to city review and standards. The existing drainage ditch traversing the site will be incorporated into the overall drainage system. 5. Adequate public safety measures have incorporated into the design of the plan: Previous on-site geologic testing revealed the absence of any faults on the site. The 50' seismic setback zone for the Calaveras fault near the easternmost corner of the site. All buildings are locate well away from the fault zone. been The flood hazard maps of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) indicate that the project site is not located within a flood- prone area. The project site lies within the 1- 580/Foothill Road noise corridor. The project includes appropriate measures to reduce the interior noise levels to acceptable City standards. The building design allows for direct roof access with existing city fire apparatus. utilities will be extended onto the site in compliance with City standards. 6. The plan conforms to the purposes of the PUD District:
