| | 561-822-1462 |
| | PROJECT: 5950 N MILITARY TR, CAYMAN SUBSTATION PERMIT |
| | 22010420 |
| | APRIL 19, 2022 |
| | I HAVE REVIEWED THE ABOVE REFERENCED PETITION, AND |
| | PROVIDE THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS: |
| | |
| | 1. SATISFIED. A PAVING PERMIT MUST BE SUBMITTED FOR |
| | AREAS OF PARKING CREATED ON THE SITE. AN IRRIGATION |
| | PERMIT MUST BE SUBMITTED FOR THE REQUIRED LANDSCAPE |
| | IRRIGATION SYSTEM. A TREE ALTERATION PERMIT APPLICATION |
| | MUST ALSO BE SUBMITTED. |
| | ALL RELATED PERMITS MUST BE SUBMITTED SO THAT REVIEWS |
| | CAN BE COORDINATED AND VERIFY PLANS ARE ALL CONSISTENT. |
| | |
| | 2. SATISFIED. REVISE THE TREE DISPOSITION PLAN TO SHOW |
| | THE MITIGATION DUE FOR THE REMOVAL OF THE ONE LIVE OAK |
| | TREE AND SABAL PALMS. PROVIDE THE TOTAL CANOPY |
| | MITIGATION DUE AND CANOPY PROVIDED WITH PROPOSED TREES. |
| | THE VEGETATION CALCULATION CHART REFERENCES PB COUNTY |
| | REQUIREMENTS. REMOVE THESE REFERENCES AND SHOW THE |
| | TOTAL SQUARE FOOTAGE OF MITIGATION DUE. SABAL PALMS ARE |
| | CATEGORY 3 AND REQUIRE 100 SQ FT CANOPY MITIGATION |
| | EACH. LIVE OAK IS CATEGORY 1 AND REQUIRES 300 SQ FT |
| | MITIGATION. SHOW THE TOTAL OF RELOCATED PALMS. |
| | |
| | 3. SATISFIED. ADD A COLUMN TO INDICATE THE REASON FOR |
| | REMOVAL ON THE TREE SCHEDULE CHART. |
| | |
| | 4. SATISFIED. SABAL PALM #37 IS SHOWN TO BE RELOCATED |
| | BUT IS OUTSIDE THE PROPERTY LINE. EXPLAIN. |
| | |
| | 5. SATISFIED. PROVIDE THE CALCULATIONS FOR THE MINIMUM |
| | REQUIRED SHADE TREES, FLOWERING TREES AND SHRUBS FOR |
| | THE SITE BASED ON 40% OPEN SPACE PER SECTION |
| | 94-442(C)(2)B. |
| | IF THE SITE IS 3.1 ACRES, 40% IS 54,014 SQ FT. |
| | REQUIRING 37 TREES AND 10 FLOWERING TREES. |
| | |
| | |
| | 6. SATISFIED. SECTION 94-443(C)(3) REQUIRES THAT A |
| | MINIMUM OF 75 PERCENT OF ALL TREES THAT ARE REQUIRED TO |
| | BE PLANTED WITHIN THE INTERIOR OF AN OFF STREET PARKING |
| | AREA SHALL BE CATEGORY 1 SHADE TREES. SHOW THE |
| | PERCENTAGE OF CATEGORY 1 TREES PROVIDED FOR THE |
| | REQUIRED LANDSCAPE AREAS AS REQUIRED BY SECTION |
| | 94-443(C)(3) FOR TERMINAL AND INTERIOR ISLANDS. |
| | |
| | THE APPLICANT INDICATED THAT THE PARKING LOT WAS TO |
| | REMAIN AS IS AND BE RESTRIPED AND MODIFIED. REMOVING |
| | THE PARKING AREA PER THE SUBMITTED DEMOLITION PLAN AND |
| | REBUILDING IT TRIGGERS COMPLIANCE WITH CURRENT CODE |
| | REQUIREMENTS. IF THE REQUIREMENT CANNOT BE MET A |
| | VARIANCE IS REQUIRED. A PAVING PERMIT HAS NOT BEEN |
| | SUBMITTED SO STAFF CANNOT VERIFY THE EXTENT OF THE |
| | MODIFICATION. IF THE PAVED AREA IS TO REMAIN, LANDSCAPE |
| | ISLANDS WITH SMALLER TREES COULD BE ADDED TO REDUCE THE |
| | NONCONFORMITY. |
| | |
| | THE NONCONFORMITY IS BEING REDUCED WITH PLACEMENT OF |
| | TREES WITHIN THE PARKING AREA. |
| | |
| | 7. SATISFIED. ADD COLUMN FOR DROUGHT TOLERANCE TO THE |
| | PLANT LIST. |
| | |
| | 8. SATISFIED. CORRECT ALL TREE SIZES TO MEET REQUIRED |
| | 12 FOOT MINIMUM HEIGHT AND FLORIDA GRADE #1. |

| | MINIMUM OF 60 PERCENT OF PLANT MATERIAL ADDED SHALL BE |

| | DISTRICT WATERWISE SOUTH FLORIDA LANDSCAPES. PROVIDE |
| | THE TOTAL PERCENTAGE OF NATIVE AND DROUGHT TOLERANT |
| | PLANTS BASED ON FINAL PLANT LIST. |
| | |
| | 10. SATISFIED. PER SECTION 94-443 (E)2., PROVIDE THE |
| | 30% FOUNDATION PLANTING CALCULATION REQUIRED AND |
| | PROVIDED FOR THE BUILDING. |
| | |
