Grading, Erosion and Sediment Control

Grading and land clearing activities impact the City’s aesthetic value and community character. Establishing minimum standards and requirements relating to land grading, clearing, excavations and fills, and procedures by which these standards and requirements may be enforced, will help to ensure soil is not stripped and removed from lands in the City, leaving them unsightly and susceptible to erosion, subsidence, faulty drainage and sediment deposition.
