Planning Division
1. Plans shall conform to the exhibits attached to this report. Proposed modifications to the approved design shall be submitted to the Planning Division and shall include revised exhibits and a narrative description of the proposed modifications. The applicant is advised that an additional application and fee may be required.
2. The subject property shall be developed and operated substantially as described in the text of this report and as shown on the project plans on file with this case except for any specific modifications that may be required by these conditions of approval.
Advisory: Signs shall be permitted in accordance with Chapter 19.620 of the Zoning Code. Any new signs shall be subject to separate review and assessment. A separate sign application, including fees and plans, will be required prior to sign permit issuance.
Prior to Map Recordation:
3. Mitigation Measure BIO-9: The Project Applicant, prior to final tract map approval, shall provide the Preliminary Jurisdictional Delineation and Determination analysis to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) for their review to determine if any federa jurisdictional waters exist on site. If federal jurisdictional waters are determined to occur on the Project site, the Project Applicant shall implement mitigation measures required in the USACE review of the proposed Project. Final tract maps for the proposed Project shall not be approved by the City of Riverside until a determination of federal jurisdictional waters occurs on the Project site.
4. The applicant shall prepare and record Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) and documents creating a Homeowners Association (HOA), subject to approval of the Planning Division and City Attorney's Office. The CC&Rs/HOA shall contain the following:
a) Each buyer shall sign an acknowledgement that he/she has read the Constitution and By- Laws of the HOA and the CC&Rs applying to the development, including any clause pertaining to private street and private driveways.
b) The CC&Rs shall be irrevocably written and recorded so that the maintenance is the responsibility of the HOA for the life of the project.

Prior to Grading Permit Issuance:
5. Tract Map No. 37731 shall be recorded.
6. Mitigation Measure BIO-1: Prior to the commencement of grading activities, the Applicant shall make the appropriate mitigation fee payment into the MSHCP Stephens' kangaroo rat fee payment program for conservation of Stephens' kangaroo rat-occupied habitats in order to offset the loss of potentially suitable Stephens' kangaroo rat habitat on-site through project implementation.
7. Mitigation Measure BIO-2: Prior to on-site vegetation clearance, the Project Applicant shall retain a qualified biologist to conduct a pre- construction nesting bird survey in accordance with the following:
a. The survey shall be conducted no more than three days prior to the initiation of clearance/construction work;
b. If pre-construction surveys indicate that bird nests are not present or are inactive, or if potential habitat is unoccupied, no further mitigation is required. c. If active nests of birds are found during the surveys, a species-specific no-disturbance buffer zone shall be established by a qualified biologist around active nests until said qualified biologist determines that all young have fledged (i.e., no longer reliant upon the nest).
d. Close coordination among the developer of the site, the City of Riverside, the project engineer, and the consulting qualified biologist is recommended to consider vegetation clearance outside of the normal bird nesting season (usually February 15 through September 15) to avoid impacts to nesting birds which would potentially violate the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. It should be noted that bird nesting season is increasingly less definitive for some year-round resident species such as hummingbirds and raptors. Further, ground-dwelling birds such burrowing owls, can be affected nearly any time of the year if present. It is therefore advisable to conduct a pre-construction bird survey no matter the time of year.
e. Removal of vegetation necessitates installation of appropriate Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) measures, particularly if grading is not undertaken immediately, therefore careful timing of the project schedule and implementation measures is necessary to avoid water quality impacts
8. Mitigation Measure BIO-6: Prior to the issuance of grading permits, the removal of Features 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 5A, which comprise 0.28 acres of Riparian/Riverine area on the Project site, shall be mitigated at a 1:1 mitigation to impact basis with purchase of rehabilitation credit and also purchase of re-establishment credit at the same mitigation ratio (1:1). Purchase of these rehabilitation credits and reestablishment credit shall be required if such credits are available for purchase and are acceptable to all associated agencies including U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, California Department of Fish and Wildlife, and the Santa And Regional Water Quality Control Board, if applicable. If these credits are not available or acceptable to the aforementioned agencies, then alternative mitigation shall be identified and approved by each agency.
9. Mitigation Measure BIO-7: Restoration of Off-site Habitat in an Approved In-Lieu Fee Program or Mitigation Bank. Implementation of the proposed Project would result in the loss of 0.17 acre of RWQCB jurisdictional waters onsite, The Project applicant shall implement, on a 1:1 ration, the purchase of 0.17 acre of rehabilitation credits for wetland "waters" at the Riverpark Mitigation Bank. Evidence of compliance with RWQCB requirements shall be submitted to the City of Riverside and the mitigation purchase shall occur prior to the issuance of grading permits for the proposed Project.
This mitigation measure is intended to reduce impacts of RWQCB jurisdictional waters on the proposed Project site.
10. Mitigation Measure BIO-8: Restoration of Off-site Habitat in an Approved In-Lieu Fee Program or Mitigation Bank. Implementation of the proposed Project would result in the loss of 0.28 acre of RWQCB jurisdictional waters onsite. The Project applicant shall implement, on a l:l ration, the purchase of 0.28 acre of rehabilitation credits for wetland "waters" at the Riverpark Mitigation Bank. Evidence of compliance with RWQCB requirements shall be submitted to the City of Riverside and the mitigation purchase shall occur prior to the issuance of grading permits for the proposed Project.
This mitigation measure is intended to reduce impacts of RWQCB jurisdictional waters on the proposed Project site.
11. Mitigation Measure CUL-1: Archaeological Monitoring. At least 30 days prior to application for a grading permit and before any grading, excavation, and/or ground disturbing activities take place, the developer/applicant shall retain a Secretary of Interior Standards qualified archaeological monitor to monitor all ground-disturbing activities in an effort to identify any unknown archaeological resources.

Treatment and final disposition of any cultural and paleontological resources, sacred sites, and human remains if discovered on the project site: and e. The scheduling and timing of the Cultural Sensitivity Training.
12. Mitigation Measure HAZ-1: Prior to issuance of a grading permit, a soil survey conducted by a licensed professional (retained by the applicant and approved by the City to determine levels of pesticides and or heavy metals shall be conducted on the site. If pesticide or heavy metal levels are not found on the Project site (or are found below the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) threshold limits for human exposure), then no additional mitigation is required. However, if pesticide or heavy metal levels exceeding the EPA threshold limits for human exposure are found on site, then Mitigation Measure HAZ-2 would be required
13. Mitigation Measure HAZ-2: If the soil survey determines that pesticide or heavy metal levels are found on the Project site that exceed the EPA threshold limits for human exposure, a report of the findings and a Removal Action Plan (RAW) shall be prepared by a qualified licensed professional (retained by the applicant and approved by the City) and submitted to the California Department of Toxic Substances (DTSC) or other appropriate agency for review and approval. The report shall outline the procedures for removing contaminated soils from the Project site down to the level of contamination and for off-site disposal by a licensed contractor at a facility that accepts such contaminated soil. Soil shall not be reused on the Project site and new soil shall be imported from off site and used on the site during Project consiruction.
