PROPOSED CUT & FILL PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION ON SLOPES VARIANCE FINDINGS IN SUMMARY • Variances for grading have been granted for similar projects. • Requested grading and construction on slopes are not design decisions, and the project provides greater environmental protection with increased landscaping. • The project does not create a significant probability of harmful environmental consequences. • The variance will result in water quality that is at least equal to the water quality achievable without the variance. STAFF DETERMINATION Staff recommends this variance, having determined the findings of fact have been met. VARIANCE RECOMMENDATIONS Staff Conditions: 1. The natural draw adjacent to buildings 3 and 7 is designed as a sunken garden that filters runoff with a trickle channel and pollinator plantings. 2. The site will meet full landscape requirements as specified by code despite the site being located in the ETJ, where landscape ordinance do not apply.
