| 2015-08-20 10:57:38 | I HAVE REVIEWED THE ABOVE REFERENCED PETITION, AND |
| | PROVIDE THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS: |
| | |
| | 1. SATISFIED. PLEASE PROVIDE A TREE SURVEY IDENTIFYING |
| | EXISTING TREES ON THE PROPERTY AND INDICATE THE |
| | SPECIES, SIZE, AND IF THEY WILL BE REMOVED, RELOCATED, |
| | OR REMAIN. THERE ARE SEVERAL TREES AND SABAL PALMS |
| | ALONG THE EAST PROPERTY LINE. IT MUST BE VERIFIED THAT |
| | THERE ARE QUEEN PALMS ON THE SITE. ONLY 2 OF THE SABAL |
| | PALMS APPEAR TO BE LARGE ENOUGH TO RELOCATE. RELOCATED |
| | PALMS ARE NOT SHOWN ON LANDSCAPE PLAN L-1. ROYAL |
| | POINCIANA IS TOO LARGE FOR THE LOCATION, AND NOT |
| | DESIRED BY THE ADJACENT PROPERTY, AS THEY ARE CUTTING |
| | OFF ALL THE BRANCHES CROSSING OVER THE PROPERTY LINE. |
| | |
| | 2. SATISFIED. THE LANDSCAPE REQUIREMENTS ARE TO BE |
| | CALCULATED PER LOT AS THERE ARE NO COMMON AREAS AS |
| | DISCUSSED IN PREVIOUS MEETINGS. SECTION 94-442(B)(2)A. |
| | REQUIRES A SHADE, FLOWERING OR FRUIT TREE FOR EACH |
| | 1,200 SQUARE FEET OF OPEN SPACE. PLEASE CALCULATE THE |
| | OPEN SPACE FOR EACH LOT AND SHOW THE REQUIRED NUMBER OF |
| | TREES FOR EACH LOT. OPEN SPACE IS NOT CALCULATED |
| | CORRECTLY. PER SECTION 94-611, DEFINITIONS, OPEN SPACE |
| | MEANS AN OPEN, UNENCLOSED AREA CONSISTING OF SETBACKS, |
| | LANDSCAPING, BUFFERS, VEHICULAR AND PEDESTRIAN |
| | CIRCULATION FEATURES, AND SURFACE PARKING. PLEASE |
| | RECALCULATE OPEN SPACE FOR EACH LOT AND THE NUMBER OF |
| | TREES REQUIRED PER 1200 SQUARE FEET OR PORTION THEREOF. |
| | |
| | 3. SATISFIED. PLEASE REVISE THE LANDSCAPE PLAN TO SHOW |
| | PALMS ALONG THE EAST PROPERTY LINE OF THE EASTERN UNIT |
| | TO PROVIDE BUFFERING FOR THE ADJACENT SECOND STORY |
| | RESIDENTIAL UNITS. SOME SABAL PALMS ALREADY EXIST IN |
| | THIS AREA. THE SECOND FLOORS OF THE END UNIT AND THE |
| | ADJACENT PROPERTY ARE VERY CLOSE, AND PALMS WOULD HELP |
| | MITIGATE THE IMPACT TO THE ADJACENT RESIDENTS. |
| | |
| | 4. SATISFIED. PLEASE SHOW UTILITY LINES TO BE PLACED |
| | UNDERGROUND IN THE ALLEY TO ELIMINATE THE ABOVE GROUND |
| | POLES. THIS WILL ALLOW FOR PLACEMENT OF TREES OR PALMS |
| | AT THE REAR OF THE UNITS ADJACENT TO THE ALLEY, AND |
| | HELP MEET THE CODE REQUIREMENTS FOR EACH LOT. GIVEN THE |
| | RECALCULATION FOR NUMBER OF TREES REQUIRED, THIS SPACE |
| | MAY BE NEEDED TO PLANT TREES. |
| | |
| | 5. SATISFIED. PLEASE ADD PALMS IN THE RIGHT OF WAY |
| | GRASS STRIPS ON THE NORTH AND WEST SIDES OF THE |
| | PROJECT. THIS WILL HELP ESTABLISH A THEME FOR THE |
| | DEVELOPMENT AND HELP INCREASE THE CANOPY OUTSIDE THE |
| | WALLS OF THE UNITS. WALLS HAVE BEEN REMOVED CREATING |
| | FRONT YARDS VISIBLE FROM THE STREET. |
| | |
| | 6. SATISFIED. PLEASE PROVIDE A CHART ON THE LANDSCAPE |
| | PLAN SHOWING COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 94-442(G) |
| | FLORIDA-FRIENDLY LANDSCAPE REQUIREMENTS. PLEASE LABEL |
| | THE ITEMS CORRECTLY AS 94-442(G) FLORIDA-FRIENDLY |
| | LANDSCAPE REQUIREMENTS, INSTEAD OF DESIGN OPTIONS |
| | POINTS. |
| | |
| | 7. SATISFIED. PLEASE ADD PALMS OR TREES TO THE |
| | LANDSCAPE ISLANDS BETWEEN THE PARALLEL PARKING SPACES. |
| | |
| | NEW COMMENTS 5/28: |
| | 8. SATISFIED. UNITS 1204, 06, 08, AND 10 DO NOT CONTAIN |
| | A SHADE, FLOWERING OR FRUIT TREE. |
| | 9. SATISFIED. PLEASE SHOW DROUGHT TOLERANCE CATEGORY |
| | FOR EACH PLANT ON THE PLANT LIST TO ESTABLISH |
| | COMPLIANCE WITH FLORIDA FRIENDLY LANDSCAPE |
| | REQUIREMENTS. |
| | 10. SATISFIED. PLEASE REMOVE PLANTS FROM THE PLANT LIST |
| | IF THEY ARE NOT USED IN THE LANDSCAPE PLAN. |
| | 11. SATISFIED. UNITS 738, 44, 50, 54, 58 AND 64 WILL |
| | REQUIRE MORE THAN ONE SHADE TREE, FLOWERING TREE OR |
| | FRUIT TREE. |
| | 12. SATISFIED. LOTS 734, 770, 1200, AND 1212: PALMS CAN |
| | BE SUBSTITUTED FOR NO MORE THAN 35% OF THE REQUIRED |
| | TREES ON EACH LOT. |
| | 13. SATISFIED. A/C UNITS FOR LOTS 1206-1210 LOCATED IN |
| | THE REAR CANNOT BE SCREENED ADEQUATELY WITH LANDSCAPING |
| | DUE TO THE SMALL SIZE OF THE AREA. RELOCATE THE UNITS |
| | TO THE FRONT OR PROVIDE ADDITIONAL SCREENING. |
| | 14. SATISFIED. ROOF DRAIN LINES CONFLICT WITH ALEXANDER |
| | PALMS AT THE REAR OF THE UNITS 1206-1210. PLEASE SHOW |
| | THE DRAIN LINES ON THE LANDSCAPE PLAN AND MOVE TO THE |
| | EDGE OF THE PLANTING AREA. |
| | 15. SEE CONDITION. UNTIL THE FINAL VERSION OF THE |
| | REPLAT IS COMPLETED, LANDSCAPE OPEN SPACE CALCULATIONS |
| | WILL BE SUBJECT TO CHANGE. |
| | |
| | CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL |
| | 1. PRIOR TO THE REMOVAL OR RELOCATION OF ANY TREES ON |
| | THE PROPERTY, A TREE ALTERATION PERMIT SHALL BE |
| | SUBMITTED, REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY THE DEVELOPMENT |
| | SERVICES DEPARTMENT, PLANNING DIVISION. |
| | 2. WHEN THE FINAL VERSION OF THE REPLAT IS COMPLETED, |
| | LANDSCAPE OPEN SPACE CALCULATIONS SHALL BE RECALCULATED |
| | FOR THE PERMIT, AND ANY ADJUSTMENTS NECESSARY WILL BE |
| | MADE TO THE PLAN PRIOR TO ISSUANCE OF THE LANDSCAPE |
| | PERMIT. |
| | 3. THE APPLICANT, SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS SHALL BE |
| | RESPONSIBLE FOR THE MAINTENANCE OF THE ROAD RIGHT OF |
| | WAY LANDSCAPING AND IRRIGATION ADJACENT TO THE PROPERTY |
| | ALONG LAKE AVENUE, N STREET, AND THE ALLEY. |
