| | 561-822-1462 |
| | PROJECT: 410 N ROSEMARY Z22080012 |
| | MARCH 15, 2023 |
| | I HAVE REVIEWED THE ABOVE REFERENCED PETITION, AND |
| | PROVIDE THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS: |
| | |
| | |
| | 1. SATISFIED. SECTION 94-448 (D)(3) REQUIRES NATIVE |
| | TREES AND PALMS 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. PROVIDE AN ARBORISTS |
| | REPORT RATING THE CONDITION AND RELOCATION POTENTIAL |
| | FOR THE NATIVE TREES AND PALMS. |
| | THERE ARE 7 SABAL PALMS THAT ARE FLORIDA NATIVE SPECIES |
| | INDICATED AS GOOD CONDITION ON THE TREE DISPOSITION |
| | PLAN AND THE ARBORISTS REPORT. REVISE DISPOSITION PLAN |
| | AND LIST TO SHOW AS RELOCATE. |
| | 2. SATISFIED. PROVIDE THE INDIVIDUAL AND TOTAL CANOPY |
| | MITIGATION DUE FOR ANY PROPOSED REMOVALS. TREES |
| | PROPOSED TO BE REMOVED WITH A CANOPY DIAMETER OF 20 |
| | FEET OR MORE SHOULD HAVE THE MITIGATION SQUARE FOOTAGE |
| | CALCULATED BASED ON THE ACTUAL DIAMETER. TREES LESS |
| | THAN 20 FEET CANOPY DIAMETER AND PALMS SHOULD SHOW THE |
| | CATEGORY MITIGATION DUE. |
| | REMOVE MITIGATION DUE FROM SABAL PALMS FOR RELOCATION. |
| | ALSO, SABAL PALMS ARE CATEGORY 3, AND IF REMOVED WOULD |
| | REQUIRE 100 SQ FT CANOPY MITIGATION EACH. |
| | 3. MAKE THE FOLLOWING CORRECTIONS TO THE TREE |
| | DISPOSITION PLAN: |
| | ??? SATISFIED. BASED ON THE ARBORIST REPORT FINDINGS, |
| | IDENTIFY TREE #504 SPECIES. |

| | AND HOW THE OPEN SPACE TYPES MEET THE REQUIREMENTS. THE |
| | PUBLIC OPEN SPACE AREAS IDENTIFIED AS COURTYARD DO NOT |
| | MEET SOME OF THE REQUIREMENTS AS SHOWN. SHOW HOW THE |
| | STANDARDS FOR THE TYPES OF OPEN SPACE ARE MET FOR |
| | VEGETATED AREAS AND TREE CANOPY SQUARE FOOTAGE BASED ON |

| | INTERVALS. ADDRESS HOW THE STREETSCAPE WILL BE PLACED |
| | INSTEAD OF THE LANDSCAPE BUFFER THAT WOULD BE REQUIRED |
| | FOR THE PROPOSED 4TH ST. |
| | LANDSCAPING PROPOSED MEETS THE REQUIREMENTS, BUT |
