Kat Katsos (525 Dove Ranch Rd) - She has been reviewing our Land Use and Building Codes. She mentions climate change, fires, flooding, health and safety. Her concern is in our building code and having a requirement for "minimal" evidence for soil stability and erosion control. She wants the town to understand what types ofs soils we. have for proper development and do more than what the minimal requirements would be. She wants the town to be able to hold the developer accountable to ensure the soil stability reporting is correct and follows the most up to date standards. She said that she would like to have more information in the code. She says that where she lives in Dove Ranch is on sinking soil. She would like a definition of erosion control and more detail in the code Nicol Killian, Community Development Director responded to the questions posed.
