The developer shall pay any and all City and other related fees that the property may be subject to. These fees shall be based on the current fee schedule in effect at the time the relevant permit is secured. Notice should be taken specifically of the City's Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) fee and the drainage acreage fee as established by the Contra Costa County Flood Control District. Prior to the issuance of building permits, the developer shall submit written verification that the requirements of the San Ramon Valley Fire Protection District and the San Ramon Valley Unified School District have been met. (The developer is referred to the Fire District's comments for this project dated April 26, 1988). Special attention shall be directed at the Fire District's requirements that the parking deck be capable of serving as "fire apparatus roadways" and supporting the imposed weight of fire apparatus. If archeological materials are uncovered during any construction or pre-construction activities on the site, all earthwork within 100 feet of these materials shall be stopped. The Town Planning Department shall be notified, and a professional archeologist certified by the Society of California Archeology and/or the Society of Professional Archeology shall also be notified. Site work in this area shall not recommence until the archeologist has had an opportunity to evaluate the significance of the find and to outline appropriate mitigation measures, if they are deemed necessary. Construction and grading operations shall be limited to weekdays (Mondays through Fridays) during the hours from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., unless otherwise approved in writing by the City Engineer. If determined necessary by lC the City Engineer, the project developer shall provide security fencing around the entire site during construction of the project. With the submittal of working drawings, the developer shall address the following comments from the Building Inspection Department: A site-specific soils report shall be prepared and shall be submitted with structural engineering calculations. be Class A/B fire retardant roof system shall be utilized. Ce Full handicapped compliance is required for all floors (including elevator, restrooms and parking compliance). de Open parking garages less than 20 feet from interior property line, openings is not permitted. B-2 occupancy (three story) requires minimum Type V one-hour construction. On site parking established for this project shall be supplied at a parking ratio of one parking space @ 225 gross square feet of building area. Excluded from the calculation of the gross square footage shall be areas shown as exterior decks, balconies and patios, storage areas in the parking structure and open-air access walkways and entrance bridge areas on the second and third floor. If additional on-site parking is proposed within the "Basement Garage" area to accommodate the additional parking necessitated by application of these Conditions of Approval, then the revised layout of the parking area shall be subject to review and approval by the Planning Department. If the additional required parking cannot be supplied, then a corresponding reduction to the overall size of the office project shall be made. If such a reduction is necessary, the space shall generally be taken from the western side of proposed Building A and the eastern side of proposed Building B. Upon satisfactory showing that the parking ratio has been met, the developer shall "land-bank" a minimum fourteen parking spaces on the top parking deck for interim use as landscape zones (See Staff Study of June, 1988). Upon reaching 75% building occupancy, and there upon on an annual basis for the first five years of project occupancy, the developer shall submit Parking Space Utilization Reports to determine if some, or all, of the "land-banked" parking spaces need to be converted 2C 10. 11. for parking use. The interim planting zones are to be applied to provide a visual "softening" to the proposed 40,000± square foot parking deck by supplying approximately 5.5% landscape/hardscape coverage within the parking deck area. The "land-banked" spaces, and the pedestrian walkways running between and alongside these areas, shall be developed with a material and a design compatible to that utilized elsewhere in the site for the pedestrian walkway system. At a minimum, each "land-banked" space shall be filled with 2-5' diameter - 3' height concrete planting containers and 3 - 3' diameter - 2' height concrete planting containers.
