ground signs, or a maximum combined area of 120 square feet for two

a maximum of ten feet by the planning services director upon
submission of the administrative variance fee and a written request.
The planning services director's decision to reduce the required 15-
foot setback shall be based on the following:
a) Where it can be demonstrated that within the adjacent right-of-
way the area between the property line and the edge of
pavement is excessively wide and that the actual paved area is
unlikely to be widened to the extent that reduction in the
required setback will result in the sign being any closer than
30 feet to the edge of pavement;
b) Where due to the existing site conditions and improvements, it
can be demonstrated that adherence to the required 15-foot
setback will have a deleterious effect on the safety of users of
the site from the perspective of vehicular parking and
vehicular and pedestrian ingress and egress;
c) Where due to the nature and location of existing landscape
features and/or specimen trees, it would be prudent to allow
for a reduction in the required setback so as to most
appropriately locate the sign structure; or,
d) The extent of the reduction is the minimum amount necessary
to provide relief from the applicable conditions cited above.

80% rule for controlling blasting in urban construction environments. If 80%
of the allowable particle velocity is exceeded, no blasting may be undertaken
until a letter, facsimile transmission, or telephone call with a follow-up letter
or facsimile transmission is provided by the blasting permit applicant to the
county identifying a revised blasting metho. dology which provides procedures
that will be implemented to assure that a peak particle velocity of 0.5 inches
per second will not be exceeded.
The maximum allowable airblaSt, measured at the nearest building or
structure not owned by the permittee, or when measured at a distance of 5280
feet from the blast shall not exceed 129 decibels when measured by an
instrument having a flat frequency response over a range of at least 6 to 200
hertz. If the airblast is measured with an instrument having a flat frequency
measure over a range of at least 2 to 200 hertz, the corresponding limit is 133
decibeis.
