Plants for steep slope

The local utility had to replace one of its poles at the rear of a
property (rental) that I own. The trees that they removed were not
particularly attractive, but now I have a rather bare, steep slope to
deal with. See photo at:

There is currently no garage, but this area may some day be dug out
to accommodate one. Therefore, I'd rather find some smaller shrubs
or perennials, rather than trees to stabilize and cover the slope.
the slope faces west so gets morning shade and afternoon sun.
I'm more interested in coverage and would even consider plants that
in other situations might be invasive. (no crownvetch, please).
Any thoughts, suggestions?
