  • Grading or site plan and work limits
  • Existing and proposed elevations

La Riviera: grading scope and jurisdiction

La Riviera grading & site work planning starts with unincorporated La Riviera parcels under county building review. Within Sacramento County, part of the Sacramento Valley, city and unincorporated Sacramento County permits follow different review desks; confirm jurisdiction from the parcel rather than its mailing city. Confirm engineering and agency review for the actual earthwork; a level-looking lot is not a grading design.

La Riviera: site conditions before grading work

La Riviera owners should evaluate parcel flood mapping near the south bank of the American River before fixing the construction footprint. For Sacramento County projects, check mapped flood constraints and drainage elevations before fixing a Sacramento Valley building pad; proximity to a river is not a parcel determination. Identify the disturbance boundary, pad elevation, drainage outlet and access route on the current site plan.

La Riviera: utilities, access and construction sequence

La Riviera construction planning should account for delivery routing between La Riviera Drive and Highway 50 access points. In Sacramento County, locate the actual sewer lateral and water service, and verify capacity with the serving agencies rather than assuming a nearby main guarantees a connection. Separate clearing, excavation, fill placement, export and erosion controls in the written scope.
