| | THE ACTUAL SQUARE FOOTAGE AND ENTER INTO THE MITIGATION |
| | DUE COLUMN IF PROPOSED FOR REMOVAL. IF UNDER 20 FEET, |
| | THE SQUARE FOOTAGE IS BASED ON THE CATEGORY FOR THE |

| | 2. SECTION 94-448 (D)(3) REQUIRES NATIVE TREES IN GOOD |
| | CONDITION TO BE PRESERVED ON SITE OR RELOCATED. ANSI A |
| | 300 (PART 5) STANDARDS SPECIFY EXAMPLES OF SUITABILITY |
| | RATINGS OF GOOD, MODERATE, OR POOR FOR RELOCATION. |

| | AN AMENDMENT TO THAT PLAN. ALL AREAS THAT ARE NOT BEING |
| | ALTERED WITH THIS AMENDMENT NEED TO SHOW THE PREVIOUSLY |

| | |
| | |

| | 1:1 SPECIES. |
| | |
| | 8. PROVIDE A PLAN SHOWING THE PARKING LANDSCAPE AREAS |

| | 11. IN THE PARKING AREAS BEING RECONSTRUCTED, STAFF |
| | SUGGESTS REDUCING THE PAVED AREAS FOR PARKING SPACES |
| | AND USING CURBS INSTEAD OF WHEEL STOPS TO ALLOW FOR |
| | PERVIOUS LANDSCAPE AREA AT THE OVERHANG. THIS ALSO |
| | ALLOWS MORE LANDSCAPE AREA FOR SUPPORTING THE ROOT |
| | ZONES OF THE TREES. |

| | PREVENTERS ON THE PRELIMINARY ENGINEERING PLANS. THESE |
| | WILL CONFLICT WITH REQUIRED TREES IN THE LANDSCAPE |
