Plan and is consistent with Specific Plan No. 04-02 approved as allowed
under Chapter 18.20 of the Zoning Code.
2. The locations and configuration of all structures associated with this project
are visually harmonious with this site and surrounding sites and structures,
that they do not interfere wit the neighbors' privacy, that they do not,
unnecessarily block scenic views from other structures and/or public areas,
and are in scale with the townscape and natural landscape of the area. The
design and appearance of the 15 unit project will be consistent with the
existing residential development in this area of the City. In addition, the site
will be appropriately landscaped to blend in with existing development and
the setbacks and landscaping of the project will ensure the compatibility of
the development with the existing surrounding residential area.

earthtones are visually harmonious with surrounding residential development
and natural landforms especially the residential development to the north of
the subject site. The design is both functional for the proposed project and
is consistent with the Grand Terrace Municipal Code. Said materials will
match existing materials and colors within the adjacent residential areas.

visually pleasing setting for the residential structures on the subject site and
is harmonious with the nearby and adjacent residential developments. The

destruction of trees or natural vegetation or the excessive and unsightly
grading of hillsides. Thus the natural beauty of the City, its setting and
natural landforms will be preserved.
