(4) the presence of steep channel gradients and steep surrounding slopes which make this <br /> site more vulnerable to channel erosion, and makes it more important for protecting <br /> downstream water quality from sedimentation. For riparian and upland wildlife habitat <br /> sites designated Category C Streams, the conservation area includes the area within the <br /> resource site boundary, plus the area within a conservation setback of 40 feet measured <br /> from the top of bank of the stream. Within this conservation area, the /WR overlay zone <br /> restricts new development, removal of riparian vegetation, and other conflicting uses. <br /> (b) Owl Road wetland: <br /> Conservation setback of 25 feet recommended. As discussed above, this site (AMA- <br /> 13) is recommended for protection. The conservation measure proposed for this site is <br /> the /WR Water Resources Conservation Overlay Zone (/WR overlay zone). Based on the <br /> habitat quality and connectivity value, this wetland site is recommended to be designated <br /> a Category B Wetland. For wetland sites designated Category B Wetlands, the <br /> conservation area includes the area within the resource site boundary, plus the area within <br /> a conservation setback of 25 feet measured from the top of bank of the stream. Within <br /> this conservation area, the /WR overlay zone restricts new development, removal of <br /> riparian vegetation, and other conflicting uses. <br /> (c) South Hills at Fox Hollow ditch: <br /> No protection measures are recommended for this site (E37J -4), as discussed in the <br /> analysis above. <br /> (4) South Hills at Canyon Drive /Fox Hollow (E37K); and <br /> (5) South Hills at Center Way (E37L): <br /> Conservation setback of 40 feet recommended. As discussed above, these sites (E37K, <br /> E37L) are recommended for protection. The conservation measure proposed for these <br /> sites is the /WR Water Resources Conservation Overlay Zone ( /WR overlay zone). <br /> These riparian sites are recommended to be designated a Category C Stream. This <br /> recommendation is based on the ESEE analysis above, and on these factors: (1) the <br /> quality of riparian habitat, (2) high connectivity values, and (3) the presence of steep <br /> channel gradients and steep surrounding slopes which make these sites more vulnerable <br /> to channel erosion, and makes them more important for protecting downstream water <br /> quality from sedimentation. For riparian and upland wildlife habitat sites designated <br /> Category C Streams, the conservation area includes the area within the resource site <br /> boundary, plus the area within a conservation setback of 40 feet measured from the top of <br /> bank of the stream. Within this conservation area, the /WR overlay zone restricts new <br /> development, removal of riparian vegetation, and other conflicting uses. <br /> (6) South Hills at Dillard (E37M): <br /> (a) South Hills at Dillard Hollow: <br /> Conservation setback of 40 feet recommended. As discussed above, this site (E37M- <br /> 1, M -2) is recommended for protection. The conservation measure proposed for these <br /> sites is the /WR Water Resources Conservation Overlay Zone ( /WR overlay zone). This <br /> riparian site is recommended to be designated a Category C Stream. This <br /> recommendation is based on the ESEE analysis above, and on these factors: (1) the <br /> quality of riparian habitat, (2) high connectivity values, and (3) the presence of steep <br /> channel gradients and steep surrounding slopes which make this site more vulnerable to <br /> channel erosion, and makes it more important for protecting downstream water quality <br /> ESEE Analysis Page 17 <br />
