® locating the olive trees in the background on the grading map and measuring the topo <br /> lines in those trees. The area of the tree grove is in the unmodified slope area and has a <br /> run of 29' feet with a rise of 10' which is a slope of 33%according to the topo map. Staff <br /> has extended a line from the trees to barn area to show the natural slope, but that line is <br /> just as steep (or even steeper) as the unmodified slope of 33%. This most of the area in <br /> the photo is not developable under PP because whether natural or man-made it is greater <br /> than 25%slope. <br /> - v <br /> i ,, t y es-- _ N ODIFIE,,r 7 eti llE <br /> r ORIGINA S • AS DRAW 1 : 1 <br /> { ^,. i yap} ; r —; : r x '• <br /> ,g, r °-akfm ,,i a i s a `,M,,'4q:"' �+r '�"r-, ,- r . , r : <br /> ® ` `5-+-• n. - r-,..t, --Ez,.-,,, '# t.7'9;°ns'k,FMirtr' ', - , <br /> R u 't x+ a` k i e,.. <br /> a C.:.h rk Itf:l + .r..0;441/4:74" a k �,,y�+f `^^r. �,f n..b Y. a i'. <br /> r r '.:7-4-.,L t .4�'i ,ifi sa rd`µ° y *r sec'9 <br /> Overall, I found that 12 of 52 lots appear to violate the PP rule prohibiting development <br /> on slopes greater than 25%. Those lots are 4, 5, 29, 30, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37 and 38. <br /> Additionally,the service road between the courts behind lots 26 and 30 crosses slopes <br /> greater than 25%. Finally, the main road also crosses slopes greater than 25%near lot 19 <br /> and then again near lot 35 and 34. <br /> Ridgeline Definitions: <br /> Staff suggests the definition of ridge and ridgeline in the general plan when PP was <br /> passed and still in place are not sufficient for this development and a modification is <br /> necessary to define when a ridge ends. I have created a drawing to show the problem with <br /> Staff's definition of the `last hill" for a ridge. In this example of a ridge profile,only the <br /> small section near the top would be a "ridge"because all the other areas have continually <br /> decreasing elevation. I'm sure this is not what the voters intended when they passed PP. <br /> They would have expected that the houses depicted on the ridge would not be allowed <br /> ® and the house on the flat would be allowed. Furthermore, Staff's definition would <br />
