A. Unless otherwise specified on the permit, all embankments for land development work shall be compacted in conformance with the provisions of the standard specifications. The permit may require that an engineering geologist and/or soil engineer, as appropriate, be responsible for the inspection and testing of the embankment work and inspection of excavations. The soil engineer and engineering geologist, if one or both are required by the permit, shall file with the City Engineer reports as required by CVMC 15.04.140 and 15.04.270(B).

B. Where, in the opinion of the City Engineer, the construction of an uncontrolled embankment would not be contrary to the public interest or welfare, a permit for such land development may be issued in accordance with CVMC 15.04.285. Plans for uncontrolled embankment shall be complete in all respects except for soil analysis and compaction requirements. Uncontrolled embankment slopes shall not be steeper than three horizontal to one vertical (3:1). (Ord. 3005 § 1, 2005; Ord. 1877 § 2, 1979; Ord. 1797 § 1, 1978).
