ITEM TITLE: Resolutio!'\ 16~' L Approving encroachment permit for
1373 Ridgeview Way
SUBMITTED BY: Ci ty Eng ineer ~ (4/5ths Vote: Yes_ No",-)
Kwang Ho Kim, owner of the property at 1373 Ridgeview Way, has had fill
dirt brought in to extend his rear yard closer to the rear property
line. When the material was placed it created a new slope within an
open space lot adjacent to his property. This fill has also covered
existing landscaping and irrigation lines on the slope within the open
space. It is my
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council approve the subject encroachment
permit with the conditions stated in the body of this report and
authorize the City Engineer to issue the permit.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable.
DISCUSSION:
On October 14, 1980, it was brought to our attention that fill material
had been brought into the subject proprty and dumped upon the existing
slope at the rear of the lot. It was noted that in the process of
dumping, the existing landscaping and irrigation lines which lie within
the City's Open Space Lot 117 of Bonita Ridge Estates, Unit No.. 2 were
buried.
The top of the originally graded slope did not coincide with the
property line on this lot. The owner reported that erosion of the
existing slope was undermining the corner of his patio and he was
fearful of the consequences. Mr. Kim brought in dirt and extended the
top of the slope to bring it closer to the property line to protect the
patio and improve the landscaping.
A field inspection by this department and the City's Landscape
Architect indicated that an Encroachment Permit could be issued with
the following conditions included and not be detrimental to the City's
interests:
1. Permittee shall post a bond in the amount of $2,000.00 to
guarantee the restoration of landscaping and irrigation.
2. Restoration operations shall be completed within 60 days of
issuance of the permit.
3. Landscaping and irrigation shall be done in accordance with
the approved plans for Bonita Ridge ~states, Unit No.2.
4. No further .fill '.,shall be placed. by Mr,. Kim within Open Space
Lot 117.

5. No structures shall be placed upon the added fill without
first obtaining a building permit from the Chula Vista
Department of Building & Housing.
The $2,000.00 bond may be released upon completion of landscaping and
irrigation and acceptance of the work by the City's Landscape
Architect.
Mr. Kim has paid the required $200.00 fee for the permit processing.
The fill is at the top of a small canyon and presents no hazard to
dwellings or human life. I believe the encroachment permit conditions
stated will with the ensure restoration of landscaping and irrigation
fac il i.ties.
The City has not yet accepted the responsibility for maintenance of
Open Space Lots within this subdivision. That responsibility is now
being taken care of by the developer of Bonita Ridge Estates #2. We
will accept responsibility after the restoration of this new slope is
completed.
A transparency is available for Council viewing.
