"Slope" or "sloping terrain" means a natural or artificial incline, as a hillside or terrace. Slope is usually expressed as a ratio. For example, a horizontal distance of one hundred feet with a rise of fifty feet would be expressed as a 2:1 slope. See also Sections 20.04.336, 20.04.723, and 20.04.726.
