A
A
Just
a
reminder
before
we
get
started
that
the
purpose
of
this
work
session
is
only
to
review
the
proposed
grading
and
address
any
questions
or
concerns
related
to
that
aspect
of
the
project.
Any
questions
or
concerns
related
to
anything
else
like
setbacks,
density
to
sign.
B
A
B
Okay,
very
good,
so
I
don't
know
if
we
go
around
the
table
or
just
I'll
just
I'll
just
start
and
kind
of
present.
The
project
does
everybody
know
because
we
don't
have
any
neighbors
on
on
there.
Is
everybody
familiar
with
the
project
and
where
it's
at
should
I
I,
don't
have
to
say
like
the
address
and
such
like
that,
but
we
have
just
over
five
acres,
we're
wanting
to
do
the
five
Lots
out
of
this
and
so
we're.
B
Looking
again,
this
meeting
is
just
just
to
look
at
the
technical
aspects
of
grading.
Perhaps
drainage,
engineering
components
to
it,
and
so
we've
got
a
Geotech
report.
We've
got
a
geologist
on
board
and
myself.
All
of
our
opinions
are
that
this
the
site
is
developable
what
we're
and
we're
proposing
to
make
five
residential
lots
out
of
this,
and
that
was
the
basis
of
the
recommendation.
Yes,
you
can,
you
can
develop
it
as
proposed
with
five
residential
lots.
B
What
we're
planning
to
do
on
this
site?
It's
existing
as
a
Vineyard
has
been
for
a
long
long
time.
History
would
show,
and
all
that
Bob
kind
of
talk
to
the
geology
and
the
and
the
Geotech
nature
of
it,
but
no
Phil
has
been
imported
onto
this
site
for
as
far
back
into
the
50s,
we
had
one
test
pit
that
we
dug
in
the
desired
location
of
a
seepage
bed
and
the
the
drainage
came
back
very
favor
favorable.
B
It
drained
very
quickly
faster
than
one
could
even
measure
realistically,
so
you,
you
recommend
eight
inches
an
hour,
which
is
the
maximum
that
the
city
of
Boise
would
allow
for
a
seepage
bed
design
and
so
we're
planning
to
have
one
Central
seepage
bed
that
all
of
the
roof,
downspouts
and
yard
drains
would
connect
and
drain
to
whether
it's
a
surface,
ditch
or
inter
below
grade
pipe.
But
we
want
to
get
all
those
all
those
surface
waters
from
roofs
to
the
central
seepage
bed.
So
we
still
don't
want.
B
B
As
far
as
grading
goes
we're
going
right
now,
it's
the
slopes,
nothing's
more
than
25
percent,
more
more,
like
a
five
to
ten
percent,
a
rolling
terrain.
This
is
in
a
hillside,
overlay
District!
That's
why
we're
having
to
comply
with
all
the
hillside
requirements,
but
other
than
that?
There's
there's
nothing
on
site,
that's
over
25
percent!
That
would,
by
itself
kick
it
into
the
hillside
category
we're
located
in
a
saddle,
a
natural
saddle
in
the
in
the
hill
which
is
in
by
in
itself
stable.
B
It
gives
us
confidence
that
we're
going
to
have
a
stable
site,
the
soils
look
as
if
they
are
stable
and
there's
even
Bedrock
presence.
So
that's
another
good
indication
of
first
ability
and
and
also
that
that
drainage
disappeared
very
very
quickly.
So
it
infiltrated
very,
very
fast.
You
don't
have
that
water
sitting
in
soil,
creating
unstable
conditions
over
long
term.
B
That's
there
and
then,
if
we
need
to
remediate
that
soil
with,
like
a
sand,
say
say,
the
Clays
need
to
be
mixed
in
with
a
with
a
more
structural
sand,
will
do
so
at
the
direction
of
the
geotechnical
engineer.
But
that
is
that's
the
essentially
what
we're?
What
we're
doing
here
so
we're
just
we're.
Looking
at
like
one
and
two
percent
grade
for
a
pad
a
pad
for
a
home,
and
it
this
this
site
isn't
steep
enough
where
we're
going
to
have
really
steep
slopes
on
the
outside
of
these
pads.
B
It's
just
going
to
be
kind
of
take
this
rolling
terrain
and
kind
of
grade
it
at
a
gentle
one
and
two
percent,
and
then
we're
building
up
lot.
Three
in
the
South.
B
All
perimeter
grades
will
tie
into
existing
conditions
to
comply
with
city
code
and
make
neighbors
happy
as
well
as
far
as
elevations
go
the
the
southern
lot,
we're
not
raising
anything
more
than
what
the
the
higher
adjacent
common
lot
is.
So
we're
not
going
to
be
towering
above
other
neighbors.
As
far
as
you
know,
the
grading
and
kind
of
the
that
question
may
come
up
if
there
was
neighbors
like
well.
My
house
sets
so
high.
Where
are
you
going
to
be
at
comparison
to
that?
B
We're
going
to
be
definitely
lower,
because
that's
just
the
the
terrain
Falls,
where
we're
in
a
lower
section
than
all
of
our
neighbors,
and
so
we
will
still
be
lower.
We're
not
building
up
to
a
point
where
we're
higher
even
equal
to
what
their
elevation
is
with
that
I
will
open
it
up
for
questions,
but
probably
just
turn
it
over
to
Bob
to
talk
about
geotechnical
aspects
of
the
project.
C
Are
there
any
geotechnical.
A
C
C
With
soils
related
issues,
I'm
Bob,
Arnold,
I'm,
a
principal
and
owner
of
site,
Consulting
local
geotechnical
engineering,
firm.
We
came
to
this
project
within
the
last
year
and
assumed
the
role
of
geotechnical
engineer
of
record.
There's
been
prior
geotechnical
work
on
the
project.
We
incorporated
that
into
our
our
research
and
generated
the
submitted
report
based
on
that
work
and
and
work.
We
did
ourselves
and,
like
Derek,
indicated
that
the
principal
concerns,
when
we're
involved
in
a
hillside,
ordinance
subdivision,
is
slope
stability.
C
So
we
don't
have
any
slopes
of
concern
on
this
property.
He
indicated
It's
relatively
flat
and
number
two.
Bearing
capacity
can
we
build
houses
here?
Yes,
we
we
can
and
there's
recommendations
in
the
report
for
improving
the
soils
to
to
make
that
work
and
then
stormwater.
He
addressed
the
storm
water
that
we
found
a
an
area
where
we
can
direct
all
storm
water
to
a
common
area.
C
We've
got
a
real
high
perk
rate
and
we'll
be
designing
for
the
city
mandated
maximum
value
and,
and
then
pavement
sections,
which
is
for
future
future
discussions.
C
We
designed
a
payment
sections
to
achd
standards,
even
though
it's
you
know
a
private
situation,
but
so
I
don't
really
have
any
geotechnical
concerns.
We
know
that
there's
fat
clays
on
the
project.
We
do
not
believe
there's
any
expanse
effect
plays
on
the
project.
Well,
that's
based
on
a
number
of
test
Pits
on
the
property,
we're
going
to
go
out
there
and
start
moving
dirt
with
big
Paddle
Wheel
scrapers,
and
we
don't
know
what
we'll
find,
but
we're
prepared
to
address
them
if
we
do
find
them.
C
Soils
of
concern
and-
and
the
Geotech
has
a
the
report-
has
a
recommendation
for
addressing
very
expansive
Clays,
we'll
we'll
use
those
in
the
Landscaping
areas,
we'll
avoid
putting
them
in
the
structural
field
on
lot
three
and
we'll
also
avoid
using
those
to
fix
grades
near
the
buildings
and
on
the
other
Lots.
So
really
I
don't
have
any
geotechnical
concerns,
but
I
would
address
any
questions
that
anybody
else
may
have.
