| 2016-06-13 17:00:47 | FROM: RAY CARANCI, LANDSCAPE PLANNER |
| | PROJECT: 3111 S DIXIE Z15120017 |
| | JUNE 9, 2016 |
| | I HAVE REVIEWED THE ABOVE REFERENCED PETITION, AND |
| | PROVIDE THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS: |
| | |
| | 1. SATISFIED. THE PERVIOUS AREA ONLY EXCEEDS THE |
| | MINIMUM REQUIRED BY 433 SQUARE FEET. THE STABILIZED |
| | EMERGENCY ACCESS AREA IS COUNTED AS 100% PERVIOUS. |
| | PLEASE PROVIDE A DETAIL OF THE STABILIZED SYSTEM AND |
| | DEDUCT THE AREA THAT IS NOT PERVIOUS. PLEASE BE AWARE |
| | THAT ANY CHANGES TO THE DESIGN IN THE FUTURE MUST |
| | ACCOUNT FOR ANY PERVIOUS AREA ALTERATIONS, AND ASSURE |
| | COMPLIANCE WITH THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENT. |
| | |
| | 2. NOT SATISFIED. THE WAIVER REQUEST FOR THE DIXIE |
| | BUFFER SHOULD INDICATE A 10 FOOT BUFFER IS REQUIRED. |
| | PLEASE CORRECT THE CHART ON FSP-1. |
| | |
| | SECTION 94-443 (D) (1) REQUIRES A 10 FOOT BUFFER ALONG |
| | PUBLIC THOROUGHFARES FOR MULTIFAMILY USES, AND A 5 FOOT |
| | BUFFER IS REQUIRED FOR COMMERCIAL USES. STAFF CAN |
| | SUPPORT THE WAIVER REQUEST TO MODIFY THE BUFFER, AS |
| | LONG AS THE DESIGN INCLUDES THE NUMBER OF TREES AS |
| | REQUIRED. THE CODE ALLOWS LIMITED CLUSTERING OF BUFFER |
| | TREES TO ALLOW FOR INTEGRATION OF SIGNAGE AND FUNCTION. |
| | |
| | 3. NOT SATISFIED. THE WAIVER REQUEST FOR THE SHADE TREE |
| | REDUCTION SHOULD INDICATE THE CORRECT NUMBER OF TREES. |
| | LANDSCAPE DATA CHART SHEET LP-1, WAIVER CHART ON FSP-1, |
| | AND JUSTIFICATION STATEMENT ARE NOT CONSISTENT WITH THE |
| | QUANTITY. |
| | |
| | SEE RESPONSE TO COMMENT 2. |
| | |
| | 4. SATISFIED. A LANDSCAPE BUFFER OF 5 FEET IN WIDTH IS |
| | SHOWN ON THE PLAN ALONG THE WEST PROPERTY LINE, YET |
| | WAIVER REQUEST #6 STILL INDICATES A REQUEST FOR A ZERO |
| | BUFFER WIDTH. WAIVER MAY NO LONGER BE NEEDED. THE PALMS |
| | MAY BE SUBSTITUTED FOR THE REQUIRED TREES IF THE TOTAL |
| | NUMBER OF PALMS SUBSTITUTED FOR SHADE TREES ON SITE |
| | DOES NOT EXCEED 35%. |
| | |
| | 5. PARTIALLY SATISFIED. THE CALCULATIONS PROVIDED FOR |
| | THE PARKING LOT LANDSCAPE REQUIREMENTS DO NOT REPRESENT |
| | AREAS PROVIDED IN THE PARKING AREAS AS REQUIRED. PLEASE |
| | REVISE TO SHOW HOW THE LANDSCAPE AREAS WITHIN THE |
| | PARKING LOT COMPLY WITH SECTION 94-443(C) 3 AND 4. |
| | |
| | SOME AREAS DO NOT QUALIFY AS BEING WITHIN THE PARKING |
| | AREA, AND OTHER AREAS IN LANDSCAPED MEDIANS ARE NOT |
| | COUNTED. |
| | |
| | 6. NOT SATISFIED. PLEASE PROVIDE A LANDSCAPE PLAN FOR |
| | THE ROOFTOP AMENITY DECK. THIS IS MATERIAL IN |
| | CONSIDERING THE TRUE QUANTITY OF WAIVER REQUEST #8, AND |
| | FOR TREE MITIGATION. |
| | |
| | A PRELIMINARY PLAN CAN BE SUBMITTED AT THIS TIME FOR |
| | APPROVAL, AND AMENDED AT A LATER DATE, OR A CONDITION |
| | OF APPROVAL CAN BE ADDED. |
| | |
| | 7. SATISFIED. WAIVER REQUEST #7 CREATES A NARROW BUFFER |
| | AREA AT THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF THE PROPERTY, AND THE |
| | LIVE OAK PROPOSED DOES NOT FIT THE RESTRICTED SPACE |
| | BETWEEN THE SIDEWALK AND BUILDING. PLEASE CHANGE TO A |
| | MORE APPROPRIATE SPECIES. |
| | |
| | 8. SATISFIED. THE GUMBO LIMBO TREES PROPOSED ALONG THE |
| | NORTH PROPERTY LINE WILL NOT PROVIDE BUFFERING FROM THE |
| | ADJACENT USE FOR A SUBSTANTIAL PART OF THE YEAR DUE TO |
| | LEAF DROP. PLEASE CONSIDER A MIX OF SPECIES TO PROVIDE |
| | MORE DIVERSITY AND YEAR ROUND BUFFERING. |
| | |
| | 9. PLEASE CORRECT THE TREE DISPOSITION PLAN FOR THE |
| | FOLLOWING: |
| | ? SATISFIED. TREES TO BE RELOCATED NEED TO BE TAGGED |
| | WITH THEIR IDENTIFYING NUMBER, AND LOCATION SHOWN BY |
| | NUMBER ON THE PROPOSED LANDSCAPE PLAN |
| | ? NOT SATISFIED. PROVIDE THE CATEGORY AND QUANTITY FOR |
| | EACH TREE TO BE REPLACED 1:1 AND PROVIDE THE MITIGATION |
| | FOR THE TREE CANOPY REPLACEMENT AS A SEPARATE QUANTITY. |
| | ? NOT SATISFIED. PROVIDE AN ADDITIONAL COLUMN TO RECORD |
| | TREE CANOPY WIDTH 35 FEET OR MORE. |
| | |
| | 10. SATISFIED. PLEASE PROVIDE A PLAN FOR THE RELOCATION |
| | SHOWING HOW TREES TO BE RELOCATED WILL BE STORED OR |
| | PLACED PERMANENTLY DURING DEMOLITION AND CONSTRUCTION. |
| | THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AT A CONCEPTUAL LEVEL PRIOR |
| | TO APPROVAL TO ASSURE THAT IT IS POSSIBLE. |
| | |
| | 11. SATISFIED. STREET TREES LOCATED IN A SIDEWALK SHALL |
| | HAVE STRUCTURAL SOIL EXTENDING 5 FEET IN ALL DIRECTIONS |
| | FROM THE TREE GRATE AND PLANTING PIT UP TO THE CURB. |
| | INDICATE STRUCTURAL SOIL LOCATIONS ON THE LANDSCAPE |
| | PLAN AND CORRECT THE TYPICAL STRUCTURAL SOIL DETAIL ON |
| | THE LANDSCAPE DETAIL PAGE. |
| | |
| | 12. NOT SATISFIED. THE TREE GRATES WILL BE U S FOUNDRY |
| | 9531 IF NO LIGHTING IS GOING TO BE INSTALLED. PLEASE |
| | VERIFY IF 9530 IS TO BE USED THAT LIGHTING WILL BE |
| | INSTALLED. |
| | |
| | A RESPONSE WAS NOT PROVIDED. |
| | |
| | 13. SATISFIED. THERE ARE LOCATIONS OF LIGHTING ON THE |
| | LANDSCAPE PLAN THAT APPEAR TO CONFLICT WITH |
| | LANDSCAPING. PLEASE PROVIDE THE HEIGHT OF THE FIXTURES |
| | IN THESE AREAS. |
| | |
| | 14. SATISFIED. PLEASE SHOW LOCATIONS OF ROOT BARRIERS |
| | TO PROTECT INFRASTRUCTURE AND TREES FROM CONFLICTS. |
| | THIS INCLUDES WATER, SEWER, DRAINAGE, SIDEWALKS AND |
| | CURBS, AND ANY FIELD STRUCTURES THAT COULD BE IMPACTED |
| | BY TREE ROOTS. |
| | |
| | 15. SATISFIED. PLEASE SHOW LOCATIONS OF ALL GROUND |
| | MOUNTED EQUIPMENT INCLUDING FPL TRANSFORMERS, A/C |
| | UNITS, ETC., AND PROVIDE SCREENING FOR ALL GROUND |
| | MOUNTED EQUIPMENT AND UTILITIES. THERE ARE STILL SOME |
| | AREAS THAT NEED SCREENING. |
| | |
| | PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT ADDITIONAL INFORMATION MAY BE |
| | REQUESTED, AND STAFF MAY HAVE ADDITIONAL COMMENTS AS |
| | THE REVIEW PROCESS CONTINUES. |
| | |
| | |
| | CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL |
