| | |
| | 1. PURSUANT TO SECTION 94-443 (C)(3), OFF-STREET |
| | PARKING LOTS CONTAINING AT LEAST 12 INTERIOR PARKING |
| | SPACES SHALL CONTAIN LANDSCAPE AREAS. THE TOTAL SIZE OF |
| | SUCH LANDSCAPED AREAS SHALL BE EQUAL TO TEN SQUARE FEET |
| | FOR EACH PARKING SPACE AND SHALL BE PROVIDED WITHIN THE |
| | INTERIOR OF AN OFF-STREET PARKING AREA. LANDSCAPED |
| | AREAS SHALL CONTAIN AT LEAST ONE SHADE TREE OF |
| | FLOWERING TREE FOR EACH 100 SQUARE FEET OF REQUIRED |
| | LANDCAPED AREA. A MINIMUM OF 75 PERCENT OF ALL TREES |
| | THAT ARE REQUIRED TO BE PLANTED WITHIN THE INTERIOR OF |
| | AN OFF-STREET PAKRING AREA SHALL BE SHADE TREES. |
| | |
| | 2. PURSUANT TO SECTION 94-443 (C)(3)(B), ONE INTERIOR |
| | LANDSCAPE ISLAND SHALL BE PROVIDED FOR EVERY TEN |
| | PARKING SPACES OR FRACTION THEREOF. INTERIOR LANDSCPAE |
| | ISLANDS SHALL BE AT LEAST FIVE FEET WIDE (EXCLUDING THE |
| | REQUIRED CURBING) AND SHALL CONTAIN AT LEAST ONE SHADE |
| | OR FLOWERING TREE. |
| | |
| | 3. PURSUANT TO SECTION 94-443 (C)(3)(A), EACH ROW OF |
| | PARKING SPACES SHALL BE TERMINATED BY LANDSCAPED |
| | ISLANDS OF NOT LESS THAN FIVE FEET IN WIDTH AND NOT |
| | LESS THAN THE LENGTH OF THE ADJACENT PARKING STALL. THE |
| | LANDSCAPED ISLAND SHALL CONTAIN AT LEAST ONE SHADE OR |
| | FLOWERING TREE. NO TERMINAL ISLANDS EXIST AT THE |
| | NORTHEAST END OF THE PARKING LOT. |
| | |
| | 4. PURSUANT TO SECTION 94-443 (C)(2), VEHICULAR USE |
| | AREAS SHALL BE SCREENED FROM THOROUGHFARES BY A |
| | LANDSCAPE BUFFER OF AT LEAST FIVE FEET IN WIDTH. HEDGES |
| | SHALL BE PLANTED AT TWO-FOOT INTERVALS FOR EACH |
| | REQUIRED LANDSCAPE BUFFER AND TREES SHALL BE PLANTED AT |
| | 30-FOOT INTERVALS. THIS APPLIES TO ALL SIDES OF THE |
| | PARKING LOT. |
| | |
| | 5. PURSUANT TO SECTION 94-448(D)(1), A TREE ALTERATION |
| | PERMIT IS REQUIRED. THE APPLICANT FOR A TREE REMOVAL |
| | PERMIT SHAL BE REQUIRED TO RELOCATE OR REPLACE TREES TO |
| | BE REMOVED. REPLACEMENT TREES SHALL HAVE SHADE AND |
| | SCREENING POTENTIAL EQUAL TO OR SUPERIOR TO THAT OF THE |
| | TREES THAT THEY REPLACE AT THE TIME OF THE INITIAL |
| | INSTALLATION. THERE IS A NET LOSS OF TREE CANOPY THAT |
| | WILL NEED TO BE MITIGATED. |
| | |
| | 7. THERE IS A LACK OF PROPOSED TREES FOR THIS PROJECT. |
| | BECAUSE THIS PARK AREA IS DIRECTLY ACROSS FROM THE |
| | KRAVIS CENTER RETENTION AREA PLANTING, THE DESIGN |
| | SHOULD INCORPORATE SIMILAR LANDSCAPE ELEMENTS. BALD |
| | CYPRESS TREES SHOULD BE PLANTED AROUND THE WATER |
| | RETENTION AREA. THIS WILL HELP TO TIE THE TWO PARK |
| | AREAS TOGETHER. |
