(1) The faces of cut and fill slopes shall be prepared and maintained to control against erosion. This control may consist of effective planting, hydroseeding, or mulching. The protection for the slopes shall be installed as soon as practicable, and prior to calling for final approval. Where cut slopes are not subject to erosion due to the erosion-resistant character of the materials, such protection may be omitted.

(2) Where necessary to provide safety to adjoining properties, check dams, cribbing, riprap, silt fences or other devices and methods shall be employed.

(3) Erosion control shall conform to the city’s adopted stormwater manual. (Ord. 1499 § 10 (Exh. H), 2021).
