| | I HAVE REVIEWED THE ABOVE REFERENCED PETITION, AND |
| | PROVIDE THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS: |
| | |
| | |
| | 1. CORRECT THE TREE DISPOSITION PLAN AND LIST FOR THE |
| | FOLLOWING: |
| | ? SATISFIED. ALL TREES BELOW 20 FOOT CANOPY ARE TO BE |
| | MITIGATED ONE FOR ONE AND THE CANOPY VALUE NEEDS TO BE |
| | CORRECTED TO THE CATEGORY VALUE. I.E. LIVE OAK CATEGORY |
| | 1, IS A 300 SQ FT CANOPY VALUE. BOTTLEBRUSH CATEGORY 2 |
| | IS A 150 SQ FT CANOPY VALUE. SABAL PALM CATEGORY 3 IS A |
| | 100 SQ FT CANOPY VALUE. CORRECT VALUE AS SHOWN IS |
| | 16,395 SQ FT. |
| | TREE CANOPY DIAMETER AND CANOPY VALUES MUST BE SHOWN |
| | FOR EACH TREE TO BE REMOVED. |

| | RELOCATED ON SITE TO AREAS WITHOUT TREES. THERE ARE |
| | LARGE TREES WITHIN THE LIMITS OF CONSTRUCTION THAT CAN |
| | BE PRESERVED BY DESIGNING THE PROPOSED SIDEWALK LAYOUT |
| | TO AVOID THEM. |
| | LIVE OAK TREES 311, 314 AND 315 CAN BE PRESERVED IF THE |
| | SIDEWALK CAN BE REDESIGNED, AND IF NOT, SINCE THEIR |
| | CONDITION IS LISTED AS ?GOOD? ON THE TREE DISPOSITION |

| | LANDSCAPE AREA ON THE LANDSCAPE PLAN FOR THE AFFECTED |

| | AS ADDITIONAL AREA IS BEING ADDED TO THE PD. THE |
