21 Excavations, Grading And Retaining Walls 16.08.200
G. Retaining Wall Construction. All retaining walls
constructed within the city shall be subject to the following
standards and restrictions and shall be designed in
accordance with the provisions of the latest adopted Uniform
Building Code and recognized soils engineering principles
and shall be approved by the Director. The following
outlines the restrictions:
1. Property Line Setback Material Restrictions. Any
retaining wall which is at or within twice its retained height
(2xH) from any property line shall be constructed from
materials other than wood. This restriction shall supersede
any and all other provisions of this section.
2. Retaining Wall Height Restrictions. If the
retained height of a wall exceeds three feet, then the
following restrictions shall apply:
a. Any vertical structural member which resists the
overturning forces imposed by the retained fill shall be
constructed of materials other than wood. If, however, in
the opinion of the Duector, the use of any wood members is
a hazazd, then all components shall be constructed of
materials other than wood.
b. If the retained height of a wall exceeds eight feet,
then no wood material may be used in its construction,
unless approved by the City Council.
3. Special Loadings and Wheel Loadings (Fire
Trucks). Whenever retaining walls are adjacent to restricted
or unrestricted vehicular traveled ways, the minimum truck
wheel loadings shall be H 10-44 as defined in the latest
adopted "Standard Specifications for Highway Bridges" of
the A.A.S.H.O. The active pressure distribution shall be
subject to approval by the Director.
4. Special Backfill Surchazges. The Director shall
have the right to request a soils engineer to review and
provide special design values for the type and magnitude of
backfill loadings on retaining walls.
5. City Details. The walls outlined in Figures
16.08.200B and 16.08.2000 may be used without additional
structural calculations, if in the opinion of the Director, no
special site or soils conditions exist. The application of the
standazd wall details are subject to the restrictions outlined
in subdivisions 1 and 2 of this subsection.
See Figure 16.08.200A for clazification of subdivisions
1 through 4 of this subsection.
Design and Construction Responsibility. Retaining
walls constructed in accordance with City Standards will be
accepted without further design computations; however, it
is the civil engineer's responsibility to assure himself as to
the adequacy of these designs in the use for which he
intends. Soil conditions, surcharge, and construction
methods and quality are still his responsibility and nothing
in this chapter shall be construed as relieving him of this
responsibility.
Nothing in this chapter shall prevent the engineer from
submitting additional designs that are accompanied by
design calculations and a signed certification testifying to
their adequacy for intended use and durability. Such designs
shall be checked and approved by the Director.
All retaining walls must be approved by the Director
prior to issuance of any building permit on the property.
Plan-checking Retaining Wall Fee. There shall be a
planchecking fee for retaining walls as specified in the latest
adopted Resolution.
H. Supported Parking Slabs and Decks. This section
shall apply only to driveway or related structures in excess
of five feet from buildings.
Any and all columns, beams or joists required or
installed as load-carrying members in the support of slabs or
decks, subject to vehicular loading, shall be constructed of
materials as or more durable than the materials used in
constructing the slab or deck. Treated or untreated wood is
defined to be the least durable of concrete, steel, or concrete
block construction.
The minimum City-stipulated loadings that can be used
shall be H10-44 as defined in the latest adopted, "The
Standazd Specifications for Highway Bridges" of the
A.A.S.H.O. (Ord. 1777, (part), 1998; Ord. 1143, Exh. A

constitute an authorization to do only that work which is

other agency requirements is mandatory, if applicable.
C. Time Limits. Permits issued under this chapter
shall be valid for the period during which the approved

permit issued by the Director.
If processed separately from the original grading
permit for a site, a winter grading permit fee and winter
grading permit bond will be assessed at the same rate as a
standazd grading permit.
Safety Precautions.
A. If at any stage of the work the Director
determines by inspection that further grading as authorized
is likely to endanger any private or public property or result
in the deposition of debris on any public way or interfere
with any existing drainage course, the Director may require,
as a condition to allowing the work to continue or to be
completed, that such reasonable safety precautions be taken
as he considers advisable to avoid such likelihood of danger.
B. Notice to comply shall be submitted to the
permittee in writing. After a notice to comply is
transmitted, a period of ten days shall be allowed for the
contractor to begin to make the corrections, unless an
imminent hazard exists, in which case the corrective work
shall begin immediately.
C. If the Director fords any existing conditions not as
stated in the grading permit or approved plans, he may order
the work stopped and refuse to approve further work until
approval is obtained for a revised grading plan which will
conform to the existing conditions. (Ord. 1944, 2004; Ord.

damage to any public utilities or services. This
responsibility applies within the limits of grading and along
any routes of travel of equipment.
C. Protection of Adjacent Property. The permittee
is responsible for the prevention of damage to adjacent
property and no person shall excavate on land sufficiently
close to the property line to endanger any adjoining public
street, sidewalk, alley, or other public or private property
without supporting such property from settling, cracking, or
other damage which might result.
D. Requirements for Supervised and Regulaz
Grading. For both supervised and regular grading, the
permittee, or his designated agent or the civil engineer shall:
1. Notify the Director at least forty-eight hours in
advance of the commencement of grading, filling,
stockpiling of soil, cleazing or any other activity governed
by the permit.
2. Submit to the Director, reports on:

A. Supervised Grading Required. Permittee shall
comply with the order to modify within the period specified
in the notice. All grading in excess of one thousand cubic
yards shall be performed under the supervision of a civil
engineer and shall be designated "Supervised Grading."
Grading not supervised in accordance with this section shall
be designated "Regular Grading." For grading involving
less than one thousand cubic yards on a site having an
average slope of less than ten percent, the permittee may
elect to have the grading performed as either supervised
grading or regular grading.
B. Supervised Grading Requirements. For
supervised grading, it shall be the responsibility of the civil
engineer to supervise and coordinate all site inspection and
testing during grading operations. Soils and geology reports
shall also be required as specified in subsections C and D of
Section 16.08.060. All necessary reports, compaction data,
and soils engineering and engineering geological
recommendation shall be submitted to the Director by the
supervising civil engineer.
In addition to performing as required above, the
permittee shall notify the Director, at least forty-eight hours
beforehand of the beginning of land-disturbing or fill
activities or stockpiling of soil.
C. Regular Grading Requirements. The Director
shall inspect the work and require adequate observation and
testing. When a soils report is required the soils engineer
shall do the observation atxl testing.
