| | |
| | PLEASE PROVIDE RESPONSES TO REVIEW COMMENTS IN WRITTEN |
| | FORMAT. |
| | |
| | 1. PURSUANT TO SECTION 94-443 (C)(3)(A), EACH ROW OF |
| | PARKING SPACES SHALL BE TERMINATED BY LANDSCAPED |
| | ISLANDS. THE LANDSCAPED ISLAND SHALL CONTAIN AT LEAST |
| | ONE SHADE OR FLOWERING TREE. THIS APPLIES TO BOTH |
| | LANDSCAPE ISLANDS ADJACENT TO THE AMBULANCE PARKING |
| | SPACE. |
| | |
| | 2. PROPOSED LANDSCAPING ALONG THE OKEECHOBEE BOULEVARD |
| | LANDSCAPE BUFFER IS NOT CONSISTENT WITH WHAT THE |
| | REMAINDER OF THE SHOPPING PLAZA HAS PLANTED ALONG THE |
| | OKEECHOBEE FRONTAGE. STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT THE ENTIRE |
| | FRONTAGE BE CONSISTENT. THAT WILL INVOLVE INSTALLING |
| | PALM GROUPINGS COMPOSED OF THREE SABAL PALMS AND |
| | ALTERNATING WITH MAHOGANY TREES. THE PALMS SHOULD BE |
| | UNDERPLANTED WITH FAKAHATCHEE GRASS. THE PROPOSED |
| | PLANTING LOOKS DISJOINTED AND DOES NOT RELATE TO THE |
| | BALANCE OF THE SITE. |
| | |
| | 3, PURSUANT TO SECTION 94-443 (C)(3)(C), WHEN DIVIDER |
| | MEDIANS ARE USED, SHADE OR FLOWERING TREES WITHIN THE |
| | DIVIDER MEDIAN SHALL BE PLANTED AT 30-FOOT INTERVALS. A |
| | MINIMUM OF TWO (2) SHADE OR FLOWERING TREES ARE |
| | REQUIRED IN THE SQUARE LANDSCAPE AREA IN THE MIDDLE OF |
| | THE FRONT PARKING LOT. |
| | |
| | 4. THERE IS A SYMBOL 'AN' ADJACENT TO THE SIGN BUT IT |
| | IS NOT POINTING TO ANYTHING. PLEASE CLARIFY IF THE |
| | ANNUALS ARE BEING PROPOSED AROUND THE SIGN.. |
| | |
| | 5. THERE ARE EXISTING SABAL PALM GROUPINGS AT THE FRONT |
| | CORNERS OF THE EXISTING BUILDING. THERE IS A NOTE ON |
| | THE PLAN THAT EXISTING PALMS WILL REMAIN, BUT IT |
| | DOESN'T POINT TO ANYTHING. . PLEASE SHOW ALL TREE AND |
| | PLANT MATERIAL THAT WILL REMAIN. ALL EXISTING |
| | VEGETATION SHALL ACCURATELY BE IDENTIFIED. |
| | |
| | 6. PURSUANT TO SECTION 94-445 (4)(G)(3), AUTOMATIC |
| | IRRIGATION SYSTEMS SHALL BE USED FOR THE CULTIVATED |
| | LANDSCAPE AREAS FOR ALL PROPERTIES. THIS INCLUDES THE |
| | RIGHT-OF-WAY. |
| | |
| | 7. THE LANDSCAPING ALONG THE WEST PERIMETER OF THE SITE |
| | WILL BE PLANTED WITHIN AN FPL EASEMENT. WRITTEN |
| | AUTHORIZATION TO PLANT WITHIN THAT OR ANY OTHER |
| | EASEMENT WILL BE REQUIRED AT THE TIME OF SITE PLAN |
| | REVIEW. |
| | |
| | 8. STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT ADDITIONAL VERTICAL LANDSCAPE |
| | ELEMENTS AND TIERED PLANTING BE INCORPORATED INTO THE |
| | FOUNDATION LANDSCAPING TO ACCENTUATE THE ARCHITECTURE, |
| | ESPECIALLY ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE PROPOSED BUILDING |
| | AND ALONG THE SOUTH AND WEST SIDES OF THE EXISTING |
| | BUILDING. THE SIDEWALK BETWEEN THE BUILDINGS THAT RUNS |
| | EAST/WEST COULD BE SHIFTED TOWARD THE NORTH TO ALLOW |
| | FOR PLANTING OF THE VERTICAL ELEMENTS AND GROUND COVER |
| | ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE PROPOSED BUILDING. |
| | |
| | 9. THE LOCATION OF THE SITE LIGHTING SHOWN ON THE |
| | PHOTOMETRIC PLAN DOES NOT CORRESPOND WITH THE LANDSCAPE |
| | PLAN. ALL PLANS SHALL BE CONSISTENT. IF THE LIGHT POLES |
| | ARE INSTALLED AS PER THE PHOTOMETRIC PLAN, THERE WILL |
| | BE CONFLICTS WITH PROPOSED TREES. |
| | |
| | IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CONTACT ROBERT |
| | KUSSNER @ (561) 822-1462. |
