RESO. 87-104 NCS UPHOLD PG&E APPEAL-. •~ Reso. 87-104 NCS the Council considered the appeal received from Pacific Gas & Electric Company for a storage building to be located at 210 Corona Road. The Site Plan Architectural Review Committee approval was subject to a condition which would require the building pad to be 24 inches above the 100 year flood level. The ground level area of the proposed •storage building elevation is 27 feet. According to the Cities records the flood elevation level is 28 feet at that location. The requirement would result 'in a building pad 3 feet above the ground. D.on • Marquardt of PG&E requested relief from that • condition.. He stated the. building is being designed to allow flood waters to flow through should there be another 100 year flood . It was moved by Vice .Mayor Tencer, seconded by Michael Davis. that we uphold the appeal from the requirement, that there be zero displacement flood waters in the floodplain, for the building pad to be 24 feet above •t'he~ 1;00 year: flood level., and. that• i~wa~s• not the intent of the Council to .regulate a project of• this type:.m~~{-~Q.O~.g.C.~G~-~ AYES: Davis, Sobel, Cavanagh, Balshaw, Vice Mayor Tencer ~~ Mayor .
