Background
The property currently contains an 8,100 ft2 residential property currently completing a remodel.
Retaining Walls
New stone retaining walls have been proposed in order to capture stormwater runoff on the east side of the property.
Materials
The proposed retaining walls shall be constructed with native stone and shall match existing walls on site.
Land Disturbance
The gross disturbance of the property shall be reduced to 25,479 ft2 (28.01%) from the previously approved disturbance of 26,365 ft2 (28.99%). A previously approved decorative stone driveway will be eliminated and access to the property shall be provided through an access easement on the northern lot.
Grading and Drainage
There will be grading associated with the construction of the property in order to properly retain the required “pre vs post” storm water volumes for the 100-year, 2-hour rainfall event. Stormwater will be captured in basins created by the new retaining walls.

4. No final approval or certificate of occupancy shall be issued until all Hillside stipulations and all Town Code requirements are complied with, including, but not limited to, landscaping, fire flow, fire safety and all onsite and offsite improvements.
5. The limits of construction and proposed disturbed areas shall be clearly staked in the field, with visible roping, prior to demolition and during construction and shall conform to the approved individual site analysis plan. Photos of the staking shall be provided prior to issuance of a demolition and/or building permit.

Noise from construction that can be heard off-site, including, but not limited to, hydraulic ram hammers, equipment used to cut through rock, machinery with audible back-up warning devices, powered machinery, truck delivery and idling, constant and persistent hammering, shall comply with Article 8-10, Nuisance Noise, as set forth in the Town Code.
