Where not otherwise exempt by Section 22.52.070 (Exemptions from Grading Permits) or authorized through the alternative review process
pursuant to Section 22.52.080 (Alternative Review), a grading permit shall be obtained where grading is to occur
meeting the definition set forth in Section 22.52.060 (Grading). A separate permit shall be required for each site and shall cover both
excavations and fills. Contiguous sites being graded as one integrated project may
be considered one site, as deemed appropriate by the Director, in order to enforce
the requirements of this Chapter.
Even those activities that do not constitute grading as defined in this Chapter, or
are exempt from grading permits, may be subject to other applicable sections in this
ordinance. This includes requirements, such as preparation and approval of an erosion
and sedimentation control plan, drainage plan, and/or stormwater pollution prevention
plan.
In granting any permit in compliance with this Chapter, the Director and, where provided,
the Public Works Director, may impose conditions as necessary. These conditions may
include requiring a licensed contractor to perform the work or a licensed professional
(e.g. civil engineer, geotechnical engineer, etc.) to prepare plans or technical reports
in order to prevent creation of a nuisance or a hazard to public health, public safety,
or public or private property, or to assure conformity to the County General Plan.
