Sims Executive Vice President Burnett Development Corporation Presented By: Bill Warkentin Warkentin Partnership Consultant PROJECT DESCRIPTION Buena Vista Terrace is a 21 lot subdivision of record since May 9, 1985. The eastern portion of the site, lots 10 through 21, are comprised of the less steep parcels, ranging from moderately sloped at lot 21 to slopes exceeding 30% at lot 10. These lots are typically 80' wide and quite deep, except for lots 19, 20 and 21 which are located on a knuckle of Camino Predera and are therefore wider and shallower. The remaining lots are considerable steeper, deeper and have a reduced frontage as they line the curve in the street alignment. What is perhaps the site's most notable characteristic is the wide variation in lot topography and development constraints. The entire site appears to have been the recipient of excess soils from adjacent construction and from the installation of the street and underground utilities. The resulting surface soils condition is quite deep and unconsolidated fill material and topographic conditions far from natural. The recommendation of over-excavation prior to consauction (mandated to remove these non-structural soils) results in cuts exceeding 5 feet in depth by which time whatever remains of the original topography will have been completely eliminated. Therefore, we have approached the development of the site from a grading point of view. Two approaches are proposed, each of which is further discussed below. A previously approved site plan was in processing for building permits when the constraints of the impending recession rendered the project infeasible. As the economy languished, the approvals were extended and ultimately expired. The current owners have assessed the re-emerging market and determined that with sufficient economics of grading, the project can once again be developed successfully.

The steeper lots add an additional 9 foot split permitting a "walk-out" basement. The result of this grading will move approximately 10,000 cubic yards of earth and balance on site. Two unit plans are illustrated, each utilizing the downhill condition to hide the garage doors from street view, a side entry garage being used in one case and an auto court in the other. The two story units terrace down the slope fully using the site grading to provide both interior and exterior view capture opportunities. LOTS I THROUGH 9 These lots require a more unique solution. We propose to establish a private road accessing Camino Predera between lots 9 and 10 then dropping down the slope to access six custom lots with an average 8000 square foot pads. These six lots are significantly lower than Camino Predera (ranging from 15 to 37 feet below adjacent street grade) and will ensure permanent view windows for the uphill homes. A gated entry will be used for these six lots thereby creating a secluded, private and secure custom lot environment. A seventh lot has been created for an existing lot that accesses directly off Camino Predera. In order to accomplish this solution, two lots have been combined so that two fewer homes will be constructed. The slopes created by the grading, both natural and man-made, will be heavily landscaped to offer additional privacy for the downhill homes. This landscaping will also serve as slope stabilization and create a natural and attractive street screen, edge condition, virtually eliminating views of the homes. The total cut and fill required for this proposed solution is 23,600 CY of cut, 22,100 CY of fill, a condition of balance when shrinkage factors are considered and approximately 1,000 cu. yds. per lot.
