EOT 2015-179
Whereas, on April 27 2016 Planning Application No. 2015-179 for the first one-
year extension for Tentative Tract Map No. 31811 (in compliance with Ordinance No.
460 and the California Subdivision Map Act, which both allow up to five one-year
extensions) was placed on the consent calendar of the Planning Commission; however,
the applicant requested the item be pulled and the Planning Commission agreed; and,
Whereas, on June 8, 2016, the City of Menifee Planning Commission, as part of
its Consent Calendar, considered Planning Application No. 2015-179 for the first one-
year extension for Tentative Tract Map No. 31811 (in compliance with Ordinance No.
460 and the California Subdivision Map Act, which both allow up to five one-year
extensions) and considered materials in the staff report and accompanying documents;
and,
NOW, THEREFORE, the Planning Commission of the City of Menifee resolves as
follows:
Section 1. With regard to Tentative Tract Map No. 31811 and EOT 2015-179, the
Planning Commission hereby makes the following findings:
Consistency with the General Plan. The tentative tract map is consistent with
the General Plan Land Use Map and applicable General Plan objectives,
policies, and programs.
The general plan land use is Specific Plan (Menifee Valley Ranch Specific
Plan No. 301). The Specific Plan designates the property for Medium Density
Residential Uses, Parks and Open Space. The project, which allows the
subdivision of 205.2 acres into 559 single family residential lots in addition to
parks and open space, is consistent with the land use of the site.
Surrounding general plan land uses include additional properties within the
Menifee Valley Ranch Specific Plan to the south designated for residential
and open space, properties designated for commercial, business park and
basin uses per the Menifee North Specific Plan to the north and east and
Public Facilities (PF) to the west. The project site is buffered from
surrounding commercial and business park land uses by Highway 74 and
Briggs Road. Residential land use designations to the south are compatible
with the proposed project. The site is buffered by Public Facilities uses by
Menifee Road. The project is consistent with the general plan land use of the
site and surrounding general plan land use designations.
2. Consistency with the Zoning Code.
The zoning of the site is the Menifee Valley Ranch Specific Plan No. 301 —
Residential and Parks (PAs 1, 2, 4A, 4B, 5A, 5B, 6, 7A, 7B, 9, and 10)). The
proposed project is allowed under the Specific Plan and consistent with the
zoning and development standards of the Specific Plan.
3. Approval of the application will not create conditions materially detrimental to
the public health, safety and general welfare.
The public's health, safety and general welfare are protected through project
design and conditions of approval. Environmental impacts of the project have
been analyzed in an Environmental Impact Report No. 423 (Environmental
Resolution No. PC16-258
EOT 2015-179
Assessment No. 39528) and associated Addendum. The approved mitigation
measures have been incorporated into the conditions of approval. The City
of Menifee Community Development Department and Engineering
Department, as part of the review of this extension of time request
determined it necessary to recommend the addition of new conditions of
approval in order to be able to make a determination that the project does not
adversely affect the general health, safety and welfare of the public. The
conditions include standard City conditions of approval (such as
indemnification of the City), landscaping conditions to ensure viable
landscaping throughout the life of the permit and compliance with new state
laws regarding drought tolerant planting and irrigation, and engineering
conditions to update the road standards to current standards.
4. Compliance with CEQA. Processing and approval of the extension
application are in compliance with the requirements of the California
Environmental Quality Act.
Additional environmental review of the requested extension is not required.
The County adopted an Addendum to Environmental Impact Report No. 423
(Environmental Assessment No. 39528) with the approval of the tentative
tract map. The previous environmental documents analyzed and mitigated
for all potentially significant effects from the development of the project. The
approved mitigation measures have been incorporated into the conditions of
approval.
Section 2. The Planning Commission of the City of Menifee approves the First
Extension of Time for Tentative Tract Map No. 31811 (2015-179 EOT) subject to the
following:
(a) The Conditions of Approval set forth in Exhibit "A" have been modified and added
for the public health, safety and welfare of the City of Menifee; and
(b) The Conditions of Approval set forth in Exhibit "A" supersede all previous
conditions of approval placed on Tentative Tract Map No. 31811 and all previous
conditions of approval are rendered null and void; and
(c) The Conditions of Approval set forth in Exhibit "A" have been agreed to by an
authorized representative as indicated by the signature at the end of the
Conditions of Approval; and
(d) The first one-year extension for Tentative Tract Map No. 31811 is approved and
the map is valid through September 27, 2016, subject to the attached Conditions
of Approval, set forth in Exhibit "A".

ARCHEOLOGY/PALEONTOLOGY
21. Human Remains. If human remains are encountered, State Health and Safety
Code Section 7050.5 states that no further disturbance shall occur until the
Riverside County Coroner has made the necessary findings as to origin.
Further, pursuant to Public Resource Code Section 5097.98(b) remains shall
be left in place and free from disturbance until a final decision as to the
treatment and disposition has been made. If the Riverside County Coroner
determines the remains to be Native American, the Native American Heritage
Commission shall be contacted within the period specified by law (24 hours).
Subsequently, the Native American Heritage Commission shall identify the
"most likely descendant." The most likely descendant shall then make
recommendations and engage in consultation concerning the treatment of the
remains as provided in Public Resources Code Section 5097.98. Human
remains from other ethnic/cultural groups with recognized historical
associations to the project area shall also be subject to consultation between
appropriate representatives from that group and the Property Owner.
22. Inadvertent Archeological Find.
If during ground disturbance activities, unique cultural resources are
discovered that were not assessed by the archaeological report(s) and/or
environmental assessment conducted prior to project approval, the following
procedures shall be followed. Unique cultural resources are defined, for this
condition only, as being multiple artifacts in close association with each other,
but may include fewer artifacts if the area of the find is determined to be of
significance due to its sacred or cultural importance as determined in
consultation with the Native American Tribe(s).
i. All ground disturbance activities within 100 feet of the discovered cultural
resources shall be halted until a meeting is convened between the
developer, the archaeologist, the tribal representative(s) and the
Community Development Director to discuss the significance of the find.
ii. At the meeting, the significance of the discoveries shall be discussed and
after consultation with the tribal representative(s) and the archaeologist, a
decision shall be made, with the concurrence of the Community
Development Director, as to the appropriate mitigation (documentation,
recovery, avoidance, etc.) for the cultural resources.
iii. Grading of further ground disturbance shall not resume within the area of
the discovery until an agreement has been reached by all parties as to
the appropriate mitigation.
iv. Treatment and avoidance of the newly discovered resources shall be
consistent with the Cultural Resources Treatment and Monitoring
Agreements entered into with the appropriate tribes. This may include
avoidance of the cultural resources through project design, in -place
preservation of cultural resources located in native soils and/or re -burial
on the Project property so they are not subject to further disturbance in
perpetuity.
10
V. Pursuant to Calif. Pub. Res. Code § 21083.2(b) avoidance is the
preferred method of preservation for archaeological resources and
cultural resources. If the landowner and the Tribe(s) cannot agree on the
significance or the mitigation for the archaeological or cultural resources,
these issues will be presented to the City Community Development
Director for decision. The City Community Development Director shall
make the determination based on the provisions of the California
Environmental Quality Act with respect to archaeological resources,
recommendations of the project archeologist and shall take into account
the cultural and religious principles and practices of the Tribe.
Notwithstanding any other rights available under the law, the decision of
the City Community Development Director shall be appealable to the City
Planning Commission and/or City Council."
23.Inadvertent Paleontological Find. Should fossil remains be encountered
during site development:
1) All site earthmoving shall be ceased in the area of where the fossil
remains are encountered. Earthmoving activities may be diverted to
other areas of the site.
2) The applicant shall retain a qualified paleontologist approved by the
County of Riverside.
3) The paleontologist shall determine the significance of the encountered
fossil remains.
4) Paleontological monitoring of earthmoving activities will continue
thereafter on an as -needed basis by the paleontologist during all
earthmoving activities that may expose sensitive strata. Earthmoving
activities in areas of the project area where previously undisturbed strata
will be buried but not otherwise disturbed will not be monitored. The
supervising paleontologist will have the authority to reduce monitoring
once he/she determines the probability of encountering any additional
fossils has dropped below an acceptable level.
5) If fossil remains are encountered by earthmoving activities when the
paleontologist is not onsite, these activities will be diverted around the
fossil site and the paleontologist called to the site immediately to recover
the remains.
6) Any recovered fossil remains will be prepared to the point of identification
and identified to the lowest taxonomic level possible by knowledgeable
paleontologists. The remains then will be curated (assigned and labeled
with museum* repository fossil specimen numbers and corresponding
fossil site numbers, as appropriate; places in specimen trays and, if
necessary, vials with completed specimen data cards) and catalogued, an
associated specimen data and corresponding geologic and geographic
site data will be archived (specimen and site numbers and corresponding
data entered into appropriate museum repository catalogs and
computerized data bases) at the museum repository by a laboratory
11
technician. The remains will then be accessioned into the museum*
repository fossil collection, where they will be permanently stored,
maintained, and, along with associated specimen and site data, made
available for future study by qualified scientific investigators.
*The City of Menifee must be consulted on the repository/museum to receive the

58. Pre -Grading Meeting. The qualified archaeologist shall attend the pre -grading
meeting with the contractors to explain and coordinate the requirements of the
monitoring program, including a cultural sensitivity training component.
59. Paleontologist Required. This site is mapped in the County's General Plan as
having a high potential for paleontological resources (fossils). Therefore,
PRIOR TO ISSUANCE OF GRADING PERMITS:
The permittee shall retain a qualified paleontologist approved by the City of
Menifee to create and implement a project -specific plan for monitoring site
grading/earthmoving activities (project paleontologist).
The project paleontologist retained shall review the approved development plan
and shall conduct any pre -construction work necessary to render appropriate
monitoring and mitigation requirements as appropriate. These requirements
shall be documented by the project paleontologist in a Paleontological
Resource Impact Mitigation Program (PRIMP). This PRIMP shall be submitted
to the Community Development Department for review and approval prior to
issuance of a Grading Permit.
Information to be contained in the PRIMP, at a minimum and in addition to
other industry standard and Society of Vertebrate Paleontology standards, are
as follows
24
A. The project paleontologist shall participate in a pre -construction project
meeting with development staff and construction operations to ensure an
understanding of any mitigation measures required during construction,
as applicable.
B. Paleontological monitoring of earthmoving activities will be conducted
on an as -needed basis by the project paleontologist during all
earthmoving activities that may expose sensitive strata. Earthmoving
activities in areas of the project area where previously undisturbed strata
will be buried but not otherwise disturbed will not be monitored. The
project paleontologist or his/her assign will have the authority to reduce
monitoring once he/she determines the probability of encountering fossils
has dropped below an acceptable level.
C. If the project paleontologist finds fossil remains, earthmoving activities
will be diverted temporarily around the fossil site until the remains have
been evaluated and recovered. Earthmoving will be allowed to proceed
through the site when the project paleontologist determines the fossils
have been recovered and/or the site mitigated to the extent necessary.
D. If fossil remains are encountered by earthmoving activities when the
project paleontologist is not onsite, these activities will be diverted around
the fossil site and the project paleontologist called to the site immediately
to recover the remains.
E. If fossil remains are encountered, fossiliferous rock will be recovered
from the fossil site and processed to allow for the recovery of smaller
fossil remains. Test samples may be recovered from other sampling sites
in the rock unit if appropriate.
F. Any recovered fossil remains will be prepared to the point of
identification and identified to the lowest taxonomic level possible by
knowledgeable paleontologists. The remains then will be curated
(assigned and labeled with museum* repository fossil specimen numbers
and corresponding fossil site numbers, as appropriate; places in
specimen trays and, if necessary, vials with completed specimen data
cards) and catalogued, an associated specimen data and corresponding

C. Drainage
124. SP FLOOD HAZARD REPORT. FLOOD HAZARD REPORT Specific Plan 301
amendment No.1 is a proposal to develop 1,548 acres with approximately 4,200
dwelling units, as well as commercial centers, park sites and school sites in the
Menifee North area. The project site is located southerly of Highway 74, between
Menifee Road and Briggs Road and north of Simpson Road. The original
proposal was to add approximately 484 homes on 153 acres along with a
commercial center, and a school. This area would be divided into 93 single-family
homes.
The site receives runoff from four major offsite watersheds that drain about 1,700
acres, 3,300 acres, 360 acres, and 458 acres, respectively. In addition, the runoff
from several smaller offsite watersheds, as well as the storm flow generated
onsite, impact the property.
Following are the City's recommendations in order to protect the public health
and safety:
1. Any development within the limits of the proposed Specific Plan shall include
detention facilities designed so that downstream peak flows will not increase due
to development. Therefore, each tentative proposal within the Specific Plan will
be required to complete a detailed, refined analysis of the increased runoff
mitigation need for that proposal in accordance with the Riverside County Flood
Control District's "INTERIM CRITERIA FOR SIZING INCREASED RUNOFF
DETENTION FACILITIES". If the Riverside County Board of Supervisors
approves an increased runoff policy (which supersedes the above) prior to the
submittal, then the latter shall apply.
2. This Specific Plan is located within the San Jacinto River watershed. Therefore
approved Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPP) from the Santa Ana
Regional Water Quality Control Board will be required prior to Environmental
Assessment adoption for each tentative development proposal within the Specific
41
Plan. Conditions of approval for development proposals will not be issued until a
copy of the draft SWPPP has been received by the City for review.
3. The northern portion of the site is located within the bounds of the
Homeland/Romoland Area Drainage Plan (ADP). The southern portion is located
within the Winchester/North Hemet ADP. The Board of Supervisors has
established fees for these plans, and applicable ADP fees will be due (in
accordance with the Rules and Regulations for Administration of Area Drainage
Plans) prior to permits within the Specific Plan. The fee due will be based on the
fee in effect at the time of payment.
4. As previously conditioned by the County. The greenbelt park drainage and
detention basin system located at the southern portion of the Specific Plan
should be a part of the landscape and drainage maintenance mechanism that
can be potentially maintained by the Citywide CFD 2015-2. These facilities
should be designed to appropriate City standards The Greenbelt channel shall be
designed to have non -erosive velocities of 6 feet per second or less.
5. The Specific Plan proposes to divert onsite storm runoff from about 112 acres
located north of McCall Boulevard and east of Menifee Road into the Salt
Creek/Winchester watershed to the south. The developer proposes to offset
these impacts by grading about 114 acres northwesterly of Briggs Road and
Case Road to drain towards the Homeland watershed. This drainage scheme is
acceptable to the City given as long as:
a. Both of the diverted areas to be balanced are proposed to be graded
concurrently.
b. The boundary for the adopted ADP's and their correspondent fees do not
change.
6. The Specific Plan proposes to construct an 84-inch storm drain to outlet the
flows from the greenbelt park drainage and detention basin system along
Lindenberger Road to the south. This facility will be required to outlet directly into
Salt Creek, which is located approximately 2,000 feet southerly of Simpson
Road.
7. The entire property on the north side of Case/Matthews Road is impacted by a
FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) mapped Zone A floodplain.
Development within this floodplain will require the applicant to process a
Conditional Letter of Map Revision (CLOMR). This will require the preparation
and submittal of an extensive hydrologic/hydraulic analysis prior to the approval
of tentative map proposals.
8. Planning Areas 11 through 13 located on north side of Case/Matthews Road
and southerly of McLaughlin Road will be subject to severe flooding damage until
flood control facilities have been constructed upstream. The development of
Planning Areas 11 through 13 will require the construction of the proposed
Homeland/Romoland ADP facilities Line A, and Line 4. In the event Line A is
already constructed, the developer shall coordinate the tie in of the
development's drainage facilities with Line A construction. The design shall be
42
reviewed and approved by both the City and RCFC District. The design of Line
A shall maintain the capacity to hold and collect the 100-year runoff from the
entire watershed tributary to the proposed Juniper Flats Basin, the Briggs Basin,
Homeland Line 1, and Romoland Line A-3.
9. The City will not issue permits for grading or map recordation for Planning
Areas 1 through 10 until adequate offsite facilities upstream have been
constructed to collect the offsite runoff tributary to the site. These facilities may
include, but not limited to Homeland Line 1 and Romoland Line A-3.
10. The master drainage plan for the Specific Plan shows proposed storm drains
to collect onsite runoff from Planning Areas 1 through 9 and to discharge the
flows towards the south into the proposed Line A. These facilities shall be
extended further north to collect offsite storm runoff from the vicinity north of
Highway 74 so that future developments from the area have an adequate facility
to outlet their respective onsite flows.
11. The current alignment for the proposed Romoland Line A is sited along the
existing low ditch located just north of McLaughlin Road. The alignment for this
major ADP facility is now finalized and Line A is currently under construction. The
developer should be aware the Planning Areas adjacent to the Line A alignment
could be affected depending upon the location of the final alignment adopted for
Line A.
125. CONSTRUCT DRAINAGE FACILTIES: It should be noted that the City will not
allow the issuance of grading permits nor allow recordation of the final map until
the plans for Line 1(including inlets that will be publicly maintained) Line A, and
Briggs Road detention basin have been approved, bonds have been posted, and
the offsite right-of-way acquired. Alternatively, if a Community Facilities District
(CFD) is formed to construct the facilities listed above, then map recordation and
grading permits will be allowed when the construction contracts for those facilities
are awarded or as approved by the General Manager -Chief Engineer.
Occupancy will not be granted for any unit until all necessary upstream and
downstream facilities are functional.
126. DRAIN TO STREET: All lots shall be graded to drain to the adjacent street or an
adequate outlet.
127. 10 YR CURB - 100 YR ROW: The 10 year storm flow shall be contained within
the curb and the 100 year storm flow shall be contained within the street right of
way. When either of these criteria is exceeded, additional drainage facilities shall
be installed. All lots shall be graded to drain to the adjacent street or an adequate
outlet.
128. 100 YR SUMP OUTLET: Drainage facilities outletting sump conditions shall be
designed to convey the tributary 100 year storm flows. Additional emergency
escape shall also be provided.
129. PERP DRAINAGE PATTERNS: The property's street and lot grading shall be
designed in a manner that perpetuates the existing natural drainage patterns with
respect to tributary drainage area and outlet points.
43
130. COORDINATE DRAINAGE DESIGN: Development of this property shall be
coordinated with the development of adjacent properties to ensure that
watercourses remain unobstructed and stormwaters are not diverted from one
watershed to another. This may require the construction of temporary drainage
facilities or offsite construction and grading.
131. FEMA PANEL NO. The entire site is within the 100 year Zone A flood plain limits
as delineated on Panel No. 060245 2085C of the Flood Insurance Rate Maps
issued in conjunction with the National Flood Insurance Program administered by
the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
132. MAJOR FACILITIES: Major flood control facilities are being proposed. These
shall be designed and constructed to City standards including those related to
alignment and access to both inlets and outlets, and coordinated with master
planned facilities being constructed by Riverside County Flood Control. The
applicant shall consult the City early in the design process regarding materials,
hydraulic design and transfer of rights of way.
133. FLOOD HAZARD REPORT: This is a proposal to subdivide 205 acres for
residential use and a park site in the Romoland area. The site is located at the
northeast corner of McLaughlin Road and Menifee Road. This development is
located within the Menifee Ranch Specific Plan (SP 301).
The entire site is located within the 100 year Zone A floodplain limits for Ethanac
Wash as delineated on Panel No. 060245 2085C of the Flood Insurance Rate
Maps issued in conjunction with the National Flood Insurance Program
administered by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). The site
is subject to tributary offsite runoff from the east and north of Highway 74.
The development of this site is contingent upon the construction of major
Romoland Master Drainage Plan (MDP) facilities including Line A which is
currently under construction along the southern portion of the site, Line 1 and the
Briggs Road Basin. A Community Facilities District (CFD) maybeformed to
construct these major drainage facilities. If the CFD doesn't form this
development or another development will be required to construct the MDP
facilities.
As previously conditioned by the County of Riverside: The site will be still subject
to offsite from the east and north of Highway 74 even after the construction of the
backbone MDP facilities. The developer has proposed a plan that includes
roadside ditches north of Highway 74 to collect tributary storm flows. Any
facilities, interim or permanent, would require a public entity to maintain them.
The City is not willing to accept maintenance of roadside ditches. Unless the
developer can get the PW Engineering Department to accept maintenance
responsibilities for these ditches another plan will be required to protect this
development from offsite storm flows which may include storm drains or open
channels to Riverside County Flood Control District standards.
Minor offsite flows will be tributary to the northern of the site where it is setback
from Highway 74 and eastern boundary along the school site. Interceptor ditches
44
must be designed appropriately (see 10. FLOOD R1.13) and offsite easements
obtained or the map shall be redesigned to eliminate the need for offsite
easements.
The developer proposes to drain the site via streets and a storm drain system to
Line A. The paseos will not be used for flood protection purposes. However, a
system of grass swales and water quality inlets within the paseos is proposed to
be used to meet the requirements for water quality. The water quality inlets shall
be located offline of the storm drains as the City will not maintain these inlets.
Any development within the limits of the proposed Specific Plan is conditioned to
include detention facilities designed so that downstream peak flows will not
increase due to development. As this development will be required to construct
Line A to the San Jacinto River mitigation for increased runoff will not be required
of this tract.
It should be noted that the City will not allow the issuance of grading permits nor
allow recordation of the final map until the plans for Line 1 (including inlets that
will be publicly maintained), Line A, and Briggs Road detention basin have been
approved, bonds have been posted, and the offsite right-of-way acquired.
Alternatively, if a Community Facilities District (CFD) is formed to construct the
facilities listed above, then map recordation and grading permits will be allowed
when the construction contracts for those facilities are awarded. Occupancy will
not be granted for any unit until all necessary upstream and downstream facilities
are functional.
Any proposed storm drain facilities shall be designed in coordination with
Riverside County Flood Control master planned facilities. All proposed facilities
shall support the drainage design of the proposed project to the satisfaction of
the City of Menifee City Engineer.The site is located within the bounds of the
Homeland/Romoland Area Drainage Plan (ADP) for which drainage fees have
been established by the Board of Supervisors. Applicable ADP fees will be due
(in accordance with the Rules and Regulations for Administration of Area
Drainage Plans) prior to permits for this project.
134. BMP - ENERGY DISSIPATOR. Energy Dissipators, such as rip -rap, shall be
installed at the outlet of a storm drain system that discharges runoff flows into a
natural channel or an unmaintained facility. The dissipators shall be designed to
minimize the amount of erosion downstream of the storm drain outlet.
135. BMP - TRASH RACKS. Trash Racks shall be installed at all inlet structures that
collect runoff from open areas with potential for large, floatable debris.
136.INTERCEPTOR DITCHES. The criteria for maintenance access of
terrace/interceptor is as follows: flows between 1-5 cfs shall have a 5-foot wide
access road, flows between 6-10 cfs shall be a minimum 5-foot rectangular
channel. Terrace/interceptor drains are unacceptable for flows greater than 10
cfs. Flows greater than 10 cfs shall be brought to the street.
If collection of offsite tributary flows requires that interceptor ditches carry more
than 10cfs, the portion of ditch exceeding 10cfs shall be publicly maintained. The
M,
developer shall construct a 12-foot access road along the downstream side of the
v-ditch interceptor drain. A splash wall shall be provided on the downstream side
of the interceptor drain unless a block wall with a minimum of 3 courses of block
is provided at the back property line of the affected lots.
137. DRAINAGE 1. The land divider shall protect downstream properties from
damages caused by alteration of the drainage patterns, i.e., concentration or
diversion of flow. Protection shall be provided by constructing adequate drainage
facilities including enlarging existing facilities and/or by securing a drainage
easement. All drainage easements shall be shown on the final map and noted as
follows: "Drainage Easement - no building, obstructions, or encroachments by
landfills are allowed". The protection shall be as approved by the PW
Engineering Department.
138. DRAINAGE 2. The land divider shall accept and properly dispose of all off -site
drainage flowing onto or through the site. In the event the PW Engineering
Department permits the use of streets for drainage purposes, the provisions of
Article XI of City adopted County Ordinance No. 460 will apply. Should the
quantities exceed the street capacity or the use of streets be prohibited for
drainage purposes, the subdivider shall provide adequate drainage facilities
and/or appropriate easements as approved by the PW Engineering Department.
139. WRITTEN PERM FOR GRADING. Written permission shall be obtained from the
affected property owners allowing the proposed grading and/or facilities to be
installed outside of the tract boundaries. A copy of the written authorization shall
be submitted to the PW Engineering Department for review and approval.
140. WATERS OF U.S.-HEC, PERM. portion of the proposed project is in a floodplain
and may affect "waters of the United States", "wetlands" or "jurisdictional
streambeds", therefore, in accordance with the requirements of the National
Flood Insurance Program and Related Regulations (44 CFR, Parts 59 through
73) and County Ordinance No. 458:

from FEMA. Final Building Inspections for lots impacted by the FEMA floodplain
shall not be issued until a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) is obtained from
FEMA.
The applicant shall be responsible for payment of all processing fees required by
FEMA for the CLOMR and LOMR. FEMA submittals for a CLOMR shall be
reviewed by the District or City on a fee for service basis. A fee in conformance
with the requirements of 44 CFR Parts 65, 70 and subsequent final rules shall be
required prior to final map approval to cover the cost of processing the LOMR.
Payment of all District and City fees and deposits for processing of FEMA
submittals shall be made directly to the each agency. Fees for processing FEMA
46
submittals shall be in addition to regular City plan check fees.
b. A copy of appropriate correspondence and necessary permits from those
government agencies from which approval is required by Federal or State law
(such as Corps of Engineers 404 permit or Department of Fish and Game 1603
agreement) should be provided to the City prior to the final City approval of the
project.
141. CONSTRUCT DRAINAGE FACILITIES. It should be noted that the City will not
allow the issuance of grading permits nor allow recordation of the final map until
the plans for Line 1 (including inlets that will be publicly maintained), Line A, and
Briggs Road detention basin have been approved, bonds have been posted, and
the offsite right-of-way acquired. Alternatively, if a Community Facilities District
