A. Preliminary Soils and/or Geologic Report. At the time of submission of the tentative map, the subdivider shall file with the city manager a preliminary soils and geologic report, prepared by a civil engineer registered as a soils engineer in the state, based upon adequate test borings or excavations when required by the city engineer.

B. Soils Investigation. If the preliminary soils and geologic report indicates the presence of critically expansive or other soils or geologic hazards which, if not corrected, could lead to structural defects, a soils and geologic investigation of each potentially affected lot in the subdivision shall be prepared by a civil engineer registered as a soils engineer in the state. The soils and geologic investigation shall recommend corrective action which is likely to prevent structural damage to structures or improvements proposed to be constructed on the area where such soils and geologic problems exist. The report shall be filed with the city manager.

C. Compliance with Soils and Geologic Investigation and Recommendations. The tentative map and building permit shall be conditioned upon the incorporation of the approved, recommended, corrective action for the construction of each structure. (Ord. 441 § 1 (part), 1988)
