| | MEMO TO FILE |
| | PROJECT: DRIVE SHACK Z17070016 |
| | OCTOBER 6, 2017 |
| | I HAVE REVIEWED THE ABOVE REFERENCED PETITION, AND |
| | PROVIDE THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS: |
| | |
| | |
| | 1. SATISFIED. PLEASE CORRECT THE PERVIOUS AND |
| | IMPERVIOUS CALCULATIONS AND LIST AREAS OF ARTIFICIAL |
| | TURF THAT ARE TO BE COUNTED AS IMPERVIOUS. SHEETS PSP-1 |
| | AND ALL LANDSCAPE SHEETS NEED CORRECTION. |
| | |
| | 2. SATISFIED. BUFFER PLANTINGS NEED TO BE ADEQUATE TO |
| | ENSURE THE ARTIFICIAL TURF IS NOT VISIBLE FROM THE |
| | PUBLIC THOROUGHFARE. |
| | ADDITIONAL BUFFERING ALONG THE CORNER AS DESCRIBED IN |
| | THE CONDITION BELOW WILL FULLY ADDRESS THIS COMMENT. |
| | |
| | 3. SATISFIED. PLEASE PROVIDE THE INFORMATION ON THE |
| | ARTIFICIAL TURF CONSTRUCTION AND INSTALLATION TO |
| | DEMONSTRATE CODE REQUIREMENTS ARE MET. |
| | |
| | 4. SATISFIED. PLEASE PROVIDE ADDITIONAL LANDSCAPE |
| | BUFFERING TO MITIGATE THE IMPACT OF THE NETTING AND |
| | LARGE POLES BY ADDING SHADE TREES AND PALMS TO THE |
| | BUFFERS ON THE NORTH, EAST AND SOUTHEAST SIDES. ALSO |
| | INCLUDE PLANTINGS IN THE DETENTION AREAS. BELVEDERE |
| | ROAD BUFFER SHOULD BE CONSISTENT WITH THE REST OF THE |
| | AIRPORT PROPERTY THAT INCLUDES BERMED AREAS, LARGE LIVE |
| | OAKS, AND LAYERED SHRUB PLANTINGS. BUFFER FOR THE |
| | PARKING AREA ADJACENT TO FLORIDA MANGO SHOULD BE |
| | CONSISTENT WITH THE BUFFER FOR THE GAS STATION ON THE |
| | OPPOSITE SIDE. |
| | |
| | |
| | 5. SATISFIED. PLEASE PROVIDE A PLAN FOR ROADWAY |
| | BEAUTIFICATION PER SECTION 94-452. SHRUBS AND |
| | GROUNDCOVER MAY BE USED TO EXTEND THE PLANTED AREAS OF |
| | THE BUFFER INTO THE ROAD SHOULDER LANDSCAPING. |
| | THERE IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO INCREASE THE BUFFER THROUGH |
| | THE ADDITION OF ROAD SHOULDER LANDSCAPING AT THE CORNER |
| | OF BELVEDERE AND AUSTRALIAN. THE BUFFER WITHIN THE |
| | PROPERTY LINE IS EXTREMELY NARROW AT THIS POINT, AND |
| | DOES NOT SCREEN AS WELL AS THE REST OF THE PROJECT. THE |
| | ADDITION OF LARGE CATEGORY TREES SUCH AS OAKS, AND |
| | ADDITIONAL HEDGES WOULD CONTINUE THE SAME PATTERN AS |
| | ALONG BELVEDERE ROAD ADJACENT TO THE SIDEWALK. |
| | ADDITIONAL BUFFERING ALONG THE CORNER AS DESCRIBED IN |
| | THE CONDITION BELOW WILL FULLY ADDRESS THIS COMMENT. |
| | |

| | LANDSCAPE ISLANDS WITHIN THE PARKING FIELD TO PROVIDE |
| | THE MAXIMUM LANDSCAPE AREAS TO SUPPORT LARGE CANOPY |
| | SHADE TREES TO MAXIMIZE THE SHADE CANOPY. STAFF WOULD |
