65. All public/private streets and driveways designated as fire lanes by the Fire Chief shall be maintained in accordance with Articles 9 and 10 of the Uniform Fire Code, which permits the towing of vehicles illegally parked on the fire lanes. Fire lane curbs shall be painted, red with "No Parking, Fire Lane, Tow Away Zone" or "No Parking, Fire Lane, Tow Away Zone" signs shall be installed as required by the Vehicle Code. Geotechnical Requirements and Mitigations 66. To mitigate the potential effects of seismically induced ground shaking at the project site, the design and construction of all structures on the lots covered by this approval shall conform to the current standards defined in the most recently adopted California Building Code and shall implement the recommendations of the preliminary geotechnical investigation report and the design-level geotechnical report to be submitted with the improvement plans. This statement shall appear in the residential design guidelines. (Mitigation Measure F-1 of the FEIR.) 67. The project developer shall undertake a detailed, design-level geotechnical investigation and, based upon this investigation, shall submit adesign-level report with the improvement plans and the first final subdivision map that incorporates and further develops the conclusions and recommendations of the existing Planning/Development Level Geotechnical Report, "Planning/ Development-Level Geologic and Geotechnical Investigation, Kottinger Hills, Pleasanton, California'; prepared for Ms. Jennifer Lin by Berlogar Geotechnical Consultants, dated November 14, 2003, and shall include the comments and recommendations provided by the City's peer review geologist/geotechnical engineer, Cotton Shires and Associates). The design-level report shall address the following impacts and mitigation measures: a. To ensure that existing landslides are properly identified, repaired, and areas of unstable soils are stabilized, the report shall evaluate each proposed lot for geotechnical suitability. If unstable soils and/or slopes could affect areas within designated lot boundaries, these areas shall be clearly demarcated on an engineering geologic map and repaired prior to issuance of the building permit. (Mitigation Measure F-2-a of the FEIR) b. To ensure that structures or property are not adversely affected by expansive and/or corrosive soils, the report shall include design standards for the proposed building foundations and improvements, including sidewalks, parking lots, and subsurface utilities, and shall incorporate measures to ensure that potential damage due to the shrink/swell potential of the site's soils is minimized. The preliminary geotechnical report indicates that expansion could be on the order of several inches and that additional laboratory testing and analysis during a design-level geotechnical investigation is required. This additional testing and analysis shall be conducted and the results incorporated into the recommendations of the Page 27 of 39
