(a) 
Grading. Grading for tennis courts and other recreation courts shall not exceed six feet of fill or 12 feet of cut and fill. A site development application for a tennis or other recreation court which proposes grading in excess of the limits in this article may be approved by the Planning Commission upon finding that the excess cut or fill,
(1) 
Will not result in slopes prone to landslides or soil creep;
(2) 
Can be landscaped and/or contours rounded to render the cut or fill inconspicuous when viewed from off the site;
(3) 
Can be properly drained according to methods approved by the City Engineer.
(b) 
Screening. Recreation courts shall be landscaped and screened so as to be unobtrusive from off-site. The structure will not be permitted unless this screening can be accomplished without interfering with the function of the structure.
(c) 
Color. All surfaces and retaining walls shall be colored in natural tones and screened as appropriate so that the court is not conspicuous when viewed from off-site.
