If a required preliminary soil report indicates the presence
of critically expansive soils or other soil problems which, if not
corrected, would lead to structural defects, the subdivider shall
provide for and submit the findings of a soil investigation of each
lot in the subdivision. The investigation shall be prepared by a registered
civil engineer and shall include a recommendation for corrective action
to prevent structural damage to buildings proposed to be constructed
on the expansive or otherwise problem soils, and this shall be noted
on the final map.
(Prior code §9-39; Ord. NS 1061 §2, 1981; Ord.
CS 179 §1, 1986)
As a condition to the granting of building permits where expansive
soils are found, the building inspector shall require the corrective
measures recommended by the registered civil engineer making the soil
report. The soil report shall be kept on file at the department of
environmental resources for public inspection. This shall be noted
on the final map.

CS 179 §1, 1986)
