| | FAILED**** |
| | |
| | PLEASE RESPOND TO REVIEW COMMENTS IN WRITTEN FORMAT. |
| | |
| | 1. THE LANDSCAPE PLAN SHALL IDENTIFY ALL EXISTING |
| | LANDSCAPING THROUGHOUT THE SITE. |
| | |
| | 2. PLEASE REVISE THE LANDSCAPE CALCULATIONS TO REFLECT |
| | TREES AND SHRUBS REQUIRED AND PROPOSED. INDICATE HOW |
| | YOU ARRIVED AT THE OPEN SPACE SQUARE FOOTAGE. CREDIT |
| | WAS TAKEN FOR UTILIZATION OF MOISTURE SENSING |
| | CONTROLLER OTHER THAN A RAINSWITCH. PROVIDE THE PART |
| | NUMBER AND DESCRIPTION OF THE EQUIPMENT PROPOSED. |
| | CREDIT WAS ALSO TAKEN FOR 25& MORE THAN THE REQUIRED |
| | SHADE TREES PLANTED IN THE VEHICULAR USE AREA. PLEASE |
| | DEMONSTRATE HOW YOU ARRIVED AT THIS CALCULATION. |
| | |
| | 3. THERE ARE NUMEROUS CONFLICTS BETWEEN VARIOUS |
| | UTILITIES, SITE LIGHTING, FENCING AND THE PROPOSED |
| | LANDSCAPING. THE STREET LIGHTS SHALL NOT BE PLACED IN |
| | THE LANDSCAPE ISLANDS. THE FENCE THAT IS CENTERED IN |
| | THE LANDSCAPE STRIP THAT RUNS BETWEEN THE PARKING ROWS |
| | IN THE REAR OF THE SITE WILL BE IN THE WAY OF THE |
| | REQUIRED TREES THAT MUST BE PLANTED IN THAT LANDSCAPE |
| | STRIP. OTHER UTILITIES ARE RUNNING UNDER BEDS WHERE |
| | TREES AND SHRUBS MUST BE PLANTED. |
| | |
| | 4. CURBING IS SHOWN IN LIEU OF CAR STOPS FOR THE NEW |
| | PARKING LOT. CAR STOPS ARE SHOWN IN THE STRIPING DETAIL |
| | BUT ARE NOT SHOWN ON THE SITE PLAN. EITHER CAR STOPS |
| | MUST BE INSTALLED TWO (2) FEET BACK FROM THE EDGE OF |
| | PAVEMENT OR THE CURBING SHALL BE PULLED BACK AND |
| | INSTALLED WHERE THE CAR STOPS WOULD BE PLACED. THAT |
| | WILL ELIMINATE THE NEED FOR THE CAR STOPS, ENLARGE THE |
| | LANDSCAPE AREA AND AVOID THE OVERHANG OF THE VEHICLES |
| | INTO THE REQUIRED LANDSCAPE BUFFER. |
| | |
| | 5. PURSUANT TO SECTION 94-442 (D), PRIVATE LAND AND |
| | PUBLIC RIGHTS-OF-WAY BETWEEN STREET OR SIDEWALK |
| | SURFACES AND REQUIRED BUFFER STRIPS AND LANDSCAPED OPEN |
| | SPACE AREAS SHALL BE PLANTED WITH GRASS. GRASS AREAS |
| | SHALL BE SODDED. THIS INCLUDES ALL RIGHTS-OF-WAY. |
| | |
| | 6. PURSUANT TO SECTION 94-445 (4) (G) (3) (II) IN ALL |
| | AREAS THAT ARE TO BE PLANTED IN A CULTIVATED LANDSCAPE, |
| | IRRIGATION SYSTEMS SHALL BE DESIGNED TO HAVE 120 |
| | PERCENT COVERAGE. THIS INCLUDES THE RIGHTS-OF-WAY. |
| | |
| | 7. PURSUANT TO SECTION 94-444 (B), OUTDOOR |
| | INCINERATORS, GARBAGE OR TRASH RECEPTACLES, FUEL OIL OR |
| | PROPANE TANKS, STORAGE RACKS AND OTHER MECHANICAL |
| | EQUIPMENT SHALL NOT BE PERMITTED UNLESS APPROPRIATE |
| | SCREENING IS PROVIDED. SCREENING SHALL BE CONSTRUCTED |
| | OF BRICK, DECORATIVE CONCRETE, OTHER DECORATIVE |
| | MASONRY, OR COMPARABLY DURABLE WOOD AND STEEL. WALLS |
| | SHALL BE LANDSCAPED WITH SHRUBS AND HEDGES PLANTED AT |
| | TWO-FOOT INTERVALS. |
| | |
| | 8. THE CHOICE OF TREES, PALMS AND SHRUBBERY FOR THIS |
| | NEW ADDITION SHALL BE COORDINATED WITH WHAT IS |
| | CURRENTLY EXISTING ON SITE. THE PROPOSED FOXTAIL PALMS |
| | ARE NOT ON THE RECOMMENDED LIST OF PALMS BECAUSE OF |
| | THEIR NEED FOR A GREAT DEAL OF WATER AND NUTRIENTS. |
| | PERHAPS SABAL PALMS WOULD BE A BETTER CHOICE AND WILL |
| | BE CONSISTENT WITH WHAT IS ALREADY PLANTED ON SITE. |
| | |
| | 9. 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 (EXCLUDING |
| | THE REQUIRED CURB) AND NOT LESS THAN THE LENGTH OF THE |
| | ADJACENT PARKING STALL. THE LANDSCAPED ISLAND SHALL |
| | CONTAIN AT LEAST ONE SHADE OR FLOWERING TREE. THE |
| | PARKING ROW ADJACENT TO THE EAST SIDE OF THE BUILDING |
| | DOES NOT HAVE ANY TERMINAL ISLANDS. THE PARKING ROW |
| | THAT TERMINATES NEAR THE FUEL TANK IS MISSING THE |
| | REQUIRED TREE. |
| | |
| | 10. PURSUANT TO SECTION 94-443 (C) (3) (C), DIVIDER |
| | MEDIANS SHALL FORM A CONTINUOUS LANDSCAPED STRIP |
| | BETWEEN ABUTTING ROWS OF PARKING SPACES. THE MINIMUM |
| | WIDTH OF SUCH A DIVIDER MEDIAN SHALL BE FIVE FEET. |
| | SHADE OR FLOWERING TREES WITHIN A DIVIDER MEDIAN SHALL |
| | BE PLANTED AT 30-FOOT INTERVALS. |
| | |
| | 11. A TREE ALTERATION PERMIT IS REQUIRED IF ANY TREES |
| | WILL BE REMOVED OR RELOCATED. THE APPLICATION IS |
| | AVAILABLE AT THE FRONT DESK OF THE PLANNING AND ZONING |
| | DEPARTMENT. |
| | |
| | IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CONTACT ROBERT |
| | KUSSNER @ (561) 822-1462. |
