relating to plans and specifications, geologic
engineering reports, soil engineering reports and bonds
shall be deemed to have been complied with as to any
excavation or grading work done in accord with such
previously approved site development plan. In the
event of any change in the site development plan as to
any lot, site or parcel from the approved site
development plan, the provisions of this Code shall
thereafter be applicable, and a separate grading plan,
grading permit, permit fee and bond shall be required
therefor.
(d) Special precautions. If the building official
determines by inspection that the nature of the
formation is such that further work as authorized by
the existing permit is likely to endanger any property
or public way, the building official may, as a
condition of work, require reasonable safety
precautions to avoid the likelihood of danger. Such
measures as flatter exposed slopes, additional drainage
facilities, berms, terracing, compaction, cribbing or
installation of plant materials for erosion control may
be required. If storm damage is anticipated, work may
be stopped until temporary planting, structures or
other temporary measures have been taken to control
erosion and protect adjoining property.
(e) Damaging graded lands. No person shall directly
or indirectly damage or destroy any ground cover,
planting, berms, drains, drainage terraces, ditches,
swales, riprap or other drainage structures and erosion
controls which are planted or constructed pursuant to
this Code, or in accord with any of the regulations or
requirements of the building official or the Planning
Commission, or pursuant to any site development plan
filed in accord with the Subdivision Ordinance of the
City.
(f) Compliance with other ordinances. The building
official shall not issue a grading permit for any
grading as a building lot or site unless all proposed
uses shown on the grading plans for the lot or site
will comply with all applicable provisions of both the
Zoning Ordinance and Subdivision Ordinance of the City,
and with all other provisions of this Code, or unless
such grading and the proposed uses are consistent with
the General Plan. Any grading permit issued in
violation of this Section shall be void and of no force
and effect."
