Setbacks and open space are comparable with nearby projects. Landscaping is attractive, frames public private views, and ties the project in surrounding development on Case Avenue. and with 4. 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 streets and raising the site grades along Case Avenue and the future Junipero Avenue right-of-way. The subject property is not located in the Alquist- priolo study zone. City building code requirements would ensure that the building foundations and parking areas are constructed on satisfactorily compacted fill. Erosion control and dust suppression measures will be documented in the building and grading permits and will be administered by the City's Building and Public Works departments. 5.
