| | 561-822-1462 |
| | PROJECT: OKEE PLAZA Z22050024 |
| | JULY 22, 2022 |
| | I HAVE REVIEWED THE ABOVE REFERENCED PETITION, AND |
| | PROVIDE THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS: |
| | |
| | 1. SATISFIED. 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. THE TREE DISPOSITION TABLE |
| | INDICATES THE SABAL PALMS ARE IN FAIR CONDITION. IF |
| | THEY ARE NOT GOOD CANDIDATES TO SURVIVE RELOCATION , |
| | THEY DO NOT HAVE TO BE RELOCATED. |
| | |
| | 2. SATISFIED. ADD A COLUMN TO THE DISPOSITION CHART FOR |
| | MITIGATION DUE. SINCE ALL LIVE OAKS ARE LESS THAN 20 |
| | FEET CANOPY DIAMETER, THE MITIGATION IS 300 SQ. FT. FOR |
| | A CATEGORY ONE SPECIES. SABAL PALMS ARE CATEGORY 3, SO |
| | 100 SQ. FT. OF MITIGATION DUE. ILEX CASSINE IS CATEGORY |
| | 2 SO 100 SQ. FT. OF MITIGATION DUE. ADD MITIGATION |
| | REQUIRED FOR A TOTAL DUE. PROVIDE THE MITIGATION |
| | CREDITS BASED ON NEW TREES AND PALMS ADDED FROM THE |
| | PLANT LIST. |
| | |
| | 3. SATISFIED. PER SECTION 94-443(C)(3)A. AND B., |
| | TERMINAL LANDSCAPE ISLANDS AND INTERIOR ISLANDS MUST |
| | HAVE AT LEAST 8 FEET WIDE LANDSCAPE AREA AND RUN THE |
| | FULL LENGTH OF THE ADJACENT PARKING SPACE. EACH AREA |
| | SHALL HAVE AT LEAST ONE SHADE OR FLOWERING TREE PER ROW |
| | OF PARKING AND AN INTERIOR ISLAND MUST BE PROVIDED SO |
| | THERE ARE NO MORE THAN 10 SPACES IN A ROW. THE INTENT |
| | OF THE CODE IS TO PROVIDE TREE CANOPY FOR PAVED AREAS |
| | TO REDUCE HEAT ISLAND EFFECTS. AS THERE IS EXCESS |
| | PARKING FOR THE SITE, THIS AREA OF THE PARKING LOT THAT |
| | IS BEING MODIFIED CAN BE BROUGHT INTO CONFORMITY WITH |
| | THE CODE REQUIREMENTS BY EXPANDING THE 3 ISLANDS IN THE |
| | EAST ROW OF PARKING AND 2 ISLANDS IN THE WEST ROW AND |
| | CHANGING THE PALM TO ANOTHER LIVE OAK. |
| | |
| | 4. SATISFIED. CHANGE THE MULCH NOTE ON SHEET L-2.0 TO |
| | USE OF CYPRESS MULCH IS PROHIBITED. |
| | |
| | 5. SATISFIED. THE SANITARY SEWER LINE IS PROPOSED WHERE |
| | IT RUNS THROUGH THE LANDSCAPE ISLAND WITH TREES. THIS |
| | SHOULD BE RELOCATED TO AVOID THE TREES. |
| | |
| | CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL |
| | 1. PRIOR TO THE REMOVAL OR RELOCATION OF ANY TREES ON |
| | THE PROPERTY, A TREE ALTERATION PERMIT SHALL BE |
| | SUBMITTED, REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY THE DEVELOPMENT |
| | SERVICES DEPARTMENT, PLANNING DIVISION. |
