| | |
| | PLEASE PROVIDE RESPONSES TO REVIEW COMMENTS IN WRITTEN |
| | FORMAT. |
| | |
| | 1. PURSUANT TO SECTION 94-448 (2)(A), IN ORDER TO |
| | PRESERVE SOIL MOISTURE, AT LEAST THREE INCHES OF |
| | COMPACTED, CLEAN, WEED FREE MULCH SHALL BE MAINTAINED |
| | OVER ALL APPROPIRATE PLANTING AREAS AT ALL TIMES. BASED |
| | UPON THE PLANTING DETAIL, ONLY TWO INCHES HAS BEEN |
| | PROPOSED. HOWEVER, PLEASE NOTE THAT NO MULCH IN EXCESS |
| | OF ONE INCH SHALL BE APPLIED OVER THE ROOT BALL OF ANY |
| | PROPOSED TREE OR SHRUB. |
| | |
| | 2. THE PROPOSED FOXTAIL PALMS ARE KNOWN TO BE |
| | TROUBLESOME AND HAVE A SHORT LIFESPAN. IN ORDER TO |
| | SUSTAIN THEM, THEY MUST BE FREQUENTLY FERTILIZED AND |
| | WITH A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF FERTILIZER. OTHERWISE, |
| | THEY ARE PRONE TO A RAPID DECLINE. PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED |
| | WITH FOXTAIL PALMS CAN BE COMPARED WITH QUEEN PALMS BUT |
| | TEND TO BE MORE SEVERE. |
| | |
| | 3. THOUGH THE MIMOSA STRIGILLOSA IS A RECOMMENDED |
| | NATIVE PLANT, IT TENDS TO BE QUITE AGGRESSIVE AND CAN |
| | EASILY TAKE OVER AN AREA IF NOT PROPERLY CONTAINED. IT |
| | WILL GROW INTO ADJACENT PLANT BEDS AND UP TREES. IN |
| | ADDITION, IT IS DIFFICULT TO WEED OUT A PLANT BED WHERE |
| | THIS PLANT SPECIES HAS BEEN INSTALLED. |
| | |
| | 4. PLEASE INDICATE WHO WILL BE RESPONSIBLE TO MAINTAIN |
| | THIS PLANTING. WILL IT BE THE HOMEOWNER ASSOCIATION OR |
| | THE INDIVIDUAL HOMEOWNERS? |
| | |
| | IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CONTACT ROBERT |
| | KUSSNER @ (561) 822-1462. |
