| | 1. SATISFIED. ON THE TREE DISPOSITION CHART SHOWING THE |
| | MANGO TREE TO BE REMOVED, IF THE DIAMETER IS 25 FEET, |
| | THE MITIGATION DUE WOULD BE 491 SQ FT. STAFF SUGGESTS |

| | |
| | INTERIOR COURTYARD MUST BE SURROUNDED BY WALLS AND |
| | CANNOT BE AREAS AROUND THE BUILDING AS SHOWN. OTHER |
| | CHOICES FOR NWD -5 ARE ROOFTOP GARDEN TERRACE WHICH ARE |
| | NOT POSSIBLE. STAFF SUGGESTS USING THE AREA ON THE |
| | NORTH SIDE OF THE BUILDING TO DO EITHER GARDEN OR |
| | INTERIOR COURTYARD ENCLOSED BY A WALL AND THE BUILDING. |
| | IT MAY NEED SOME OF THE SPACE DESIGNATED FOR FUTURE |
| | BUILDING LOCATION. THE AREA CAN BE EXTENDED TOWARD |
| | TAMARIND TO THE BUILDING SETBACK LINE. |

| | ISLAND, BUT THE 8 FEET INSIDE CURB MUST BE PROVIDED. |
| | THE REQUIRED TREE MUST BE PROVIDED IN ADDITION TO THE |
| | BUFFER TREE REQUIREMENT. |

| | ADDITIONAL PARKING AREA TREES. |
| | |
| | 7. SATISFIED. ADD A SECTION IN THE LANDSCAPE DATA CHART |

| | 10. PARTIALLY SATISFIED. PROVIDE A DETAIL AND LOCATIONS |
| | OF ROOT BARRIERS TO SEPARATE LANDSCAPING FROM UTILITY |
| | LINES. |
