report to the Building Division. A final soils report shall also be submitted to the Building

project complies with all disability requirements of Title 24 of the State Building Code.
Structures exceeding 10,000 square feet in area shall require installation of an automatic
fire sprinkler system.
Before the Building Division can allow occupancy of this apartment complex, they must
inspect and approve the placement and colors of the address numbers identifying each unit
and/or building, and on-site building/unit location maps so that emergency personnel can
easily find a specific unit when responding to the site during an emergency.
Business identification signs are not considered nor approved under this review. A
separate review and sign permit from the Building Division is required for all new signs,
including future use and construction signs. Signs must comply with the Sign Ordinance
(Chapter 17.60 of the Bakersfield Municipal Code).
The Building Division will calculate and collect the appropriate school district impact fee at
the time they issue a building permit.
B. DEVELOPMENT SERVICES - PLANNING (staff contact - Dave Reizer 661/326-3673)
The minimum parking required for this project has been computed based on use and shall
be as follows:
Use
Multi-Family Units (§4)
Ratio
2 spaces/unit
Guest Parking (10%)
Total Required
#Spaces
108 spaces
11 spaces
119 Spaces
(Note: 108 parking spaces are provided in 2-car garages for each unit and 8 (eight) guest
parking spaces are shown on the proposed site plan.)
The developer shall include a copy of a final landscape plan with each set of the final
building plans submitted to the Building Division. Building permits will not be issued until the
Planning Division has approved the final landscape plan for consistency with approved site
plans and minimum ordinance standards (please refer to the attached landscaping
requirements in Chapter 17.61 ).
(NOTE: At the time a final site inspection is conducted, it is expected that plants will
match the species identified and be installed in the locations consistent with the
approved landscape plan. Changes made without prior approval of the Planning staff
may result in the removal and/or relocation of installed plant materials and delays in
obtaining building occupancy.)
Prior to receiving final building or site occupancy, you must contact the Planning Division
(staff contact noted above) for final inspection and approval of the landscaping, parking lot,
lighting, and other related site improvements. Inspections will not be conducted until all
required items have been installed. Any deviations from the approved plans without prior
approval from the Planning Division may result in reconstruction and delays in obtaining
building or site occupancy.
Our records show that the project is contained on more than one parcel. These parcels
shall be merged into one parcel because parking must be on the same site as the project
(Section 17.58.010B of the B.M.C.). A parcel map merger or lot line adjustment application

removing or relocating property lines shall be submitted to the Planning Division before
building permits can be issued. Recordation of the map shall occur before final building or
site occupancy can be granted. If our records are in error and these parcels have been
merged, please provide a copy of the parcel map, subdivision map, or certificate of
compliance showing the property as one parcel. (Note: An Assessor's pamel map is not
acceptable since the County Assessor cannot create nor verify that a lot was legally
created. Also, if the deed describes multiple lots, this is not a legal merger.)
Because off site emergency access is being proposed, the developer shall file with the
Planning Division before any building permits are issued, a copy of a recorded lease, C. C.
and R.'s, or other instrument that ensures that the emergency access proposed for this
project is available for its actual lifetime.

Metropolitan Bakersfield Habitat Conservation Plan. Upon payment of the fee, the
applicant will receive acknowledgment of compliance with Metropolitan Bakersfield Habitat
Conservation Plan (Implementation/Management Agreement Section 3.1.4). This fee is
currently $1,240 per gross acre, payable to the City of Bakersfield (submit to the Planning
Division). This fee must be paid before any grading or other site disturbance occurs.
A Park Development and Improvement Fee shall be paid at the time a building permit is
issued. We will base this fee at the rate in effect at the time the permit is issued. The
