"Prior to grading permit issuance, the Cameron Park Community Service District (CSD) shall dedicate and record a conservation easement on property under their ownership that contains oak tree canopy of the amount equal to twice that existing on the project parcel, for a total of 0.94 acres of oak tree canopy. The conservation easement will be offered to the County, but the land shall be maintained by the CSD. A 4/5 vote of the Board of Supervisors will be necessary to remove the easement."
The subject Deed has been reviewed and approved by County Counsel.
Action to be taken following Board approval: The Board Clerk's Office will record the Certificate of Acceptance.
