In order to ensure the preservation of natural topographic features within
the City, the following criteria shall'be used as general guidelines in the
preparation and review of plans for any' development on sloping land or near
natural bluffs:
1. The proposed development should preserve the natural
skyline and the significant topographic features of
the site. Particular attentioni should be given to
the number and distribution ofi,structures, the design
of the street system, and the location of open space.
2. The proposed development should protect and retain
significant vegetation, particularly mature trees,
on the site.

3. The proposed development should retain and create
open space and view areas. ?
4. The proposed development ghould irovide public
access to view areas andeother natural features.
5. The grading plan for the proposedidevelopment should
include variable slop ratios and:undulating slopes.
b
6. The proposed development should provide adequate set-
backs from steep /
haracter
opes, natural canyons, and natural
bluffs in order prevent structures from detracting
from the visual of these areas and in order
to ensure the s/fety and stability of these areas.
7. The proposed evelopment and grading plan should include
specific pro 's ions for the control of all surface and
subsurface ainage from the site paying particular
attention the quality of water entering the bay and
ocean.
8. The proposed development should retain the natural topog-
raphy arld should minimize successive padding and terracing
of builkinz sites.
