| | PROJECT: 625 S OLIVE MICROUNITS Z19070006 |
| | MARCH 17, 2020 |
| | I HAVE REVIEWED THE ABOVE REFERENCED PETITION, AND |
| | PROVIDE THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS: |
| | |
| | 1. THE TREE DISPOSITION PLAN SHEET L1.00 MUST BE |
| | COMPLETED AND CORRECTED FOR THE FOLLOWING: |
| | ? SATISFIED. PROVIDE CANOPY MITIGATION SQUARE FOOTAGE |
| | REQUIRED FOR ALL REMOVED TREES EXCEPT INVASIVE EXOTIC |
| | SPECIES. TREES AND PALMS CANOPY SQUARE FOOTAGE TO BE |
| | MITIGATED BASED ON CATEGORY. ANY TREES 20 FEET OR MORE |
| | CANOPY DIAMETER TO BE MITIGATED BY ACTUAL SQUARE |
| | FOOTAGE. |
| | TREES #37, 38 AND 41 CLASSIFIED AS LEANING MUST STILL |
| | BE MITIGATED. ADD THE APPROPRIATE MITIGATION DUE AND |
| | REVISE THE CHART. |
| | ? SATISFIED. PROVIDE THE MITIGATION VALUES BY CATEGORY |
| | FOR THE PROPOSED TREES AND PALMS BASED ON THE PLANT |
| | LIST. |
| | |
| | 2. SATISFIED. PER SECTION 94-448 (D)(3), ALL NATIVE |
| | TREES AND PALMS IN GOOD CONDITION MUST BE PRESERVED ON |
| | SITE OR RELOCATED. THERE ARE MULTIPLE LIVE OAKS AND |
| | SABAL PALMS PROPOSED TO BE REMOVED. THE LARGEST LIVE |
| | OAK MAY BE ABLE TO BE USED ON SITE AS A SPECIMEN WITH |
| | SOME DESIGN CHANGES TO THE SITE. |
| | 12 CABBAGE PALMS MUST BE RELOCATED IF IN GOOD |
| | CONDITION. THEY CAN BE MOVED TO THE WESTERN BUFFER. |
| | PROVIDE MORE INFORMATION. |
| | |
| | |
| | 3. SATISFIED. CLARIFY THE OPEN SPACE TYPES AND |
| | REQUIREMENTS TO CALL OUT THE TYPE OF OPEN SPACE AND THE |
| | CALCULATIONS FOR THE REQUIRED TYPE FOR EACH OF THE OPEN |
| | SPACE AREAS SUCH AS ROOFTOP GARDEN OR TERRACE. SHEET |
| | L3.00 PARTIALLY DOES THIS BUT IS LABELED HARDSCAPE |
| | PLAN. LIST THE TREES PROVIDED AND PROVIDE TREE CANOPY |
| | SQUARE FOOTAGE PER TABLE IV-8 FOR SPACES THAT REQUIRE |
| | TREE CANOPY PERCENTAGES. |
| | OPEN SPACE NEEDS TO BE IDENTIFIED PROPERLY FOR THE TYPE |
| | ALLOWED AND CLASSIFICATION. |
| | DEFINITIONS OF EACH OPEN SPACE TYPE CAN BE FOUND IN |
| | SECTION 94-109. |
| | QGD10 ALLOWS ROOFTOP GARDEN OR TERRACE AS PRIVATE OPEN |
| | SPACE TYPES PER TABLE IV-6. THERE IS NO TYPE CALLED |
| | ROOFTOP TERRACE. |
| | TERRACE REQUIRES 20 PERCENT VEGETATED AREA AND NO TREE |
| | CANOPY. ROOFTOP GARDEN REQUIRES 30 PERCENT VEGETATED |
| | AREA AND 20 PERCENT TREE CANOPY PER TABLE IV-7. TREE |
| | CANOPY VALUES ARE FOUND IN TABLE IV-8. |
| | GROUND FLOOR OPEN SPACE NEEDS TO BE CLASSIFIED AS A |
| | PERMITTED TYPE. |
| | |
| | 3/2/20 IN ORDER TO MEET THE REQUIREMENT OF PROVIDING |
| | PUBLIC OPEN SPACE IN PLACE OF REQUIRED PRIVATE OPEN |
| | SPACE, THE GROUND FLOOR OPEN SPACE MUST BE CLASSIFIED |
| | AS EITHER GARDEN COURTYARD OR GARDEN PLAZA, AS THESE |
| | ARE THE PUBLIC OPEN SPACE OPTIONS FOR QGD10. |
| | CHOOSE ONE OF THESE TYPES AND PROVIDE THE REQUIRED |
| | PERCENTAGE OF VEGETATED AREA AND TREE CANOPY FOR THE |
| | SQUARE FOOTAGE PROVIDED. THE MINIMUM 900 SQ FT DOES NOT |
| | APPLY, THE ACTUAL SUBSTITUTION SQUARE FOOTAGE CAN BE |
| | USED AND CLEARLY DELINEATED. |
| | |
| | 4. SATISFIED. PROVIDE BUFFER PLANTINGS ON THE WEST AND |
| | SOUTH SIDES OF THE BUILDING TO BUFFER THE PARKING |
| | GARAGE. |
| | |
| | 5. SATISFIED. CORRECT THE FOLLOWING ON THE PLANT LIST: |
| | ? MINIMUM SIZE FOR STREET TREES IS 20 FEET HEIGHT. |
| | ? CORRECT TO IDENTIFY NATIVE AND NON-NATIVE SPECIES. |
| | ? PROVIDE ONE COMPREHENSIVE PLANT LIST ON ONE SHEET. |
| | PROVIDE QUANTITIES FOR EACH SPECIES ON PLANT LIST. |
| | |
| | |
| | 6. SATISFIED. WALK UP GARDENS IN FRONT OF STREET UNITS |
| | MUST CONTAIN LANDSCAPING. |
| | |
| | 7. SATISFIED. COVERED AREAS DO NOT QUALIFY AS OPEN |
| | SPACE. AREA AT SOUTHEAST CORNER CANNOT BE A GARDEN |
| | PLAZA. |
| | |
| | 8. SATISFIED. STREET TREES NEED TO BE SPACED TO PROVIDE |
| | CANOPY OVER THE PEDESTRIAN SIDEWALKS. SPACING NEEDS TO |
| | BE ADJUSTED ON S OLIVE TO SPREAD THE TREES AND ADD A |
| | PLANTING BULB OUT BETWEEN THE PARALLEL PARKING SPACES. |
| | SPACING OF OAKS ON TRINITY CANNOT BE AFFECTED BY |
| | UTILITY PLACEMENT. UTILITIES NEED TO BE COORDINATED TO |
| | NOT DISRUPT SPACING OF TREE CANOPY. |
| | |
| | 9. SATISFIED. ADJUST SPACING OF STREET TREES ON |
| | TANGLEWOOD SO THERE IS A TREE WEST OF THE DRIVEWAY |
| | ENTRANCE. |
| | TREE MAY NOT BE POSSIBLE WITH SIDEWALK AND ENTRANCE |
| | DESIGN. SEE ZONING COMMENTS. |
| | |
| | 10. SATISFIED. PER SECTION 94-113, TREE GRATES ARE ONLY |
| | USED WHEN THE SIDEWALK AREA IS NEEDED. PLANTING AREAS |
| | CAN BE USED ON ALL SIDES ADJACENT TO THE CURB. PAVER |
| | SECTIONS CAN BE ADDED ALONG S OLIVE AT SOME LOCATIONS |
| | TO PROVIDE DESIGN CONTINUITY. |
| | |
| | 11. CONDITIONALLY SATISFIED. SHOW ACTUAL PERCENTAGE FOR |
| | COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 94-445 L. PLANT SPECIES. A |
| | MINIMUM OF 60 PERCENT OF PLANT MATERIAL ADDED SHALL BE |
| | FLORIDA NATIVE OR DROUGHT TOLERANT SPECIES SELECTED |
| | FROM THE CITY LIST OR THE LIST OF SPECIES IN THE MOST |
| | RECENT EDITION OF SOUTH FLORIDA WATER MANAGEMENT |
| | DISTRICT WATERWISE SOUTH FLORIDA LANDSCAPES. |
| | QUANTITIES OF PLANT MATERIAL MUST BE PROVIDED TO |
| | ACCURATELY PROVIDE PERCENTAGE. |
| | |
| | CHECK THE CODE WORDING ON SHEET L2.00, AS IT IS NOT THE |
| | CURRENT CODE PASSED IN 2018. THE CODE IN THIS COMMENT |
| | IS THE CURRENT VERSION. OF THE TOTAL ADDED PLANT |
| | MATERIAL, CALCULATE THE ACTUAL PERCENTAGE OF NATIVE OR |
| | DROUGHT TOLERANT PLANTS PROVIDED. ADDING A DROUGHT |
| | TOLERANCE COLUMN FOR THE NON NATIVE PLANTS IS HELPFUL. |
| | |
| | ADDITIONAL COMMENTS 11/22/19: |
| | |
| | 12. SATISFIED. SHOW LOCATIONS OF ANY ROOT BARRIERS |
| | REQUIRED TO PROTECT UTILITY LINES. PROVIDE A TYPICAL |
| | ROOT BARRIER DETAIL. |

| | INCHES. REVISE THE PLAN TO SHOW THIS. |
| | |
| | |
