perimeter setback and parkway areas in the street right-of-way shall be shaped
with berms and mounds, pursuant to Section 9.100.040(6)(7), LQMC.
51. The design of the development shall not cause any increase in flood boundaries,
levels or frequencies in any area outside the development.
52. The development shall be graded to permit storm flow in excess of retention
capacity to flow out of the development through a designated overflow and into
the historic drainage relief route.
53. The applicant is hereby notified that future site modifications may be necessary
prior to approval and recordation of final map including, but not limited to lot and
street reconfiguration. Verification of the proposed storm water retention system
is subject to review and approval by the Coachella Valley Water District. If in the
event, the proposed retention capacity or pass through storm water flow is found
to be inadequate during final design, the Applicant shall revise what is currently
proposed in the preliminary hydrology study and make adjustments to the site
layout as needed to accommodate the increased retention/detention or pass
through capacity required to satisfy safety issues of the Design and Development
