(k)

A description of the proposed method and plan of sewage disposal for each proposed lot together with the following:

(1)

When the proposed method of sewage disposal is by a sewer system, a letter ("sewer availability letter") from a proposed public sewer agency stating that the sewer capacity is currently available, or is expected to be available within the next three years, sufficient to provide connections to each proposed lot shall be submitted; or

(2)

When the proposed method of sewage disposal is by individual sewage disposal systems, a soil evaluation report and, if the subdivision is in an area where there are potential geological hazards, a geological report, acceptable to the Environmental Health Division, indicating that the individual sewage disposal system for each proposed lot will function properly shall be submitted;

(l)

A description of the proposed method and plan for providing a permanent domestic water supply to each proposed lot together with the following:

(1)

When the proposed water supply is to be provided by a public water system, as defined in Section 4010.1 of the Health and Safety Code, a letter ("Water availability letter") from the owner or operator of the proposed water system stating that water is currently available, or is expected to be available within the next three years, sufficient to provide a permanent domestic water supply to each such lot shall be submitted; and

(2)

Regardless of whether the proposed water supply is to be provided by a public water system, when it is to be drawn exclusively from wells in areas where groundwater supplies have been determined by the Environmental Health Division or the Public Works Agency to be questionable or inadequate, a report that is prepared in accordance with procedures established by the Public Works Agency and the Environmental Health Division and that demonstrates the availability of a permanent domestic water supply to each lot for a period of at least 60 years shall be submitted;

(m)

A certification by the applicant, supported by a preliminary title report, that the design of the subdivision and the type of improvements will not conflict with easements acquired by the public at large for access through, or use of, property within the proposed subdivision;

(n)

A preliminary soils report, prepared by a Civil Engineer registered by the State of California, and based upon adequate test borings, including the following information:

(1)

a description of the nature of the subsurface soils and of any soils conditions which would affect the proposed development and use of the subdivision;

(2)

if on-site sewage disposal is proposed, percolation test results and a hydrological evaluation;

(3)

the location and logs of all test borings;

(4)

the location of a buildable site for each proposed lot for which a buildable site is required under Section 8204-2.6; and

(5)

a description of general solutions for all known problems related to soils conditions and a statement as to the technical and economic feasibility of those solutions; provided that the preliminary soils report may be waived if both the Public Works Agency and the Environmental Health Division find, on the basis of their knowledge of the soils in the subdivision, that the report is unnecessary;

(o)

If the Public Works Agency or the Environmental Health Division has knowledge of, or if the preliminary soils report indicates the presence of, critically expansive soils or other soils problems which, if not corrected, would lead to structural defects or hazardous conditions, a soils investigation report for each proposed lot where such problems exist, prepared by a civil engineer registered with the State of California, including the following information:

(1)

recommended corrective action which is technically and economically feasible and is likely to prevent structural damage and eliminate any hazards to each proposed structure for the lot; and

(2)

the location on the lot of a buildable site if one is required under Section 8204-2.6;

(p)

If the subdivision includes a hillside area or any other geologically hazardous area, an engineering geology evaluation report, prepared in accordance with any applicable notes and recommended guidelines promulgated by the California Division of Mines and Geology, including the following information:

(Am. Ord. 4083—12/20/94)

(1)

a definition of geologic conditions within the subdivision;

(2)

a discussion of specific areas where development may create hazardous conditions;

(3)

(5)

the location of a buildable site for each proposed lot if one is required under Section 8204-2.6; and

(6)
