Adjustment to the Street Setback Line
Orcutt Road between Broad Street and the Southern Pacific Railroad
In conformance with AB 3180, the following mitigation measures will be monitored as
indicated below. Please sign the original and return to my office as soon as possible.
A. Surface Water Flow and Quality. The design for widening Orcutt Road should
include a method for bridging the waterways which feed into the Acacia Creek
drainage system that m+ininuzes disruption to water flow and flooding and erosion
impacts, subject to approval by the City Engineer, the Community Development
Director, and the State Department of Fish and Game.
B. Plant and Animal Life. To ensure no net loss of the extent or quality of riparian
habitat, the remaining riparian habitat on parcels adjoining the road widening
project should be expanded and enhanced according to a plan prepared by a
professional landscaper or biologist with experience in riparian habitat restoration
and revegetation: The plan should be subject to approval by the State
Department of Fish and Game and the Community development Director, and
modelled after the one specified for the Parkside Research Center project at 953
Orcutt Road (ER 220-92). Planting should occur at the time of site development
or actual road widening, whichever comes first. Plan preparation and installation
shall be the responsibility of the applicant if site development triggers this
mitigation, or shall be the responsibility of the City if road widening precedes site
development.
C. Archaeological. Construction activities related to the widening of Orcutt Road
shall comply with the City's Interim Archaeological Procedures (attached).
D. Other. Short-term Construction Impacts. A plan for dust control during
construction activities related to the widening of Orcutt Road shall be approved
by the Community Development Director prior to commencing construction, and
implemented during actual construction.
