The developer shall obtain all required approvals from the Kern County Environmental Health Services Department (2700 "M" Street, Bakersfield, CA; Ph. 661/862-8700) for any public pool or related facility before building permits can be issued. Disabled access to any public pool and related facility shall comply with 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.

Parking lot lighting is required by the Bakersfield Municipal Code (Section 17.58.060A). Illumination shall be evenly distributed across the parking area with light fixtures designed and arranged so that light is directed downward and is reflected away from adjacent residential properties and streets. Use of glare shields or baffles may be required for glare reduction or control of back light. All light poles, standards and fixtures, including bases or pedestals, shall not exceed a height of 40' above grade. The final building plans shall include a picture or diagram of the light fixtures being used and show how light will be directed onto the parking area. Please note that staff can require additional adjustments to installed lighting after occupancy to resolve glare of other lighting problems that effect adjacent properties. Because parking and/or access is being shared with adjacent properties (ie. retail or office centers), the developer shall file with the Planning Division before any building permits are issued a copy of a recorded map, C. C. and R.'s, or other instrument that ensures that drive aisles, parking, and access is legally shared in common with adjoining properties as depicted on the site plan for the life of the project. 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.) A solid masonry wall is required to be constructed adjacent to residentially zoned property as indicated by staff on the returned site plan. This wall must be shown on the final building plans and shall be constructed a minimum height of 6 feet as measured from the highest adjacent finished property grade. If the parking lot, including drive aisles, delivery areas, loading and unloading areas are within 10 feet of residentially zoned property, a 7-foot wide landscape strip that includes landscaping consistent with Chapter 17.61 shall be installed between the wall and parking/drive areas (this will also be noted on the returned plan).
