| | 561-822-1462 |
| | PROJECT: 2235 OKEECHOBEE Z22090007 |
| | OCTOBER 6, 2022 |
| | I HAVE REVIEWED THE ABOVE REFERENCED PETITION, AND |
| | PROVIDE THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS: |
| | |
| | 1. PROVIDE A TREE DISPOSITION AND MITIGATION LIST. |
| | 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. |
| | PROVIDE AN ARBORIST REPORT SHOWING CONDITION AND |
| | RELOCATION POTENTIAL FOR ANY NATIVE TREES OR PALMS |
| | TREES AND PALMS PROPOSED TO BE REMOVED. APPLICANT HAS |
| | INDICATED A TREE DISPOSITION LIST WILL BE PROVIDED WITH |
| | THE RESUBMITTAL. |
| | |
| | 2. THE SITE PLAN AND LANDSCAPE PLAN DO NOT MATCH THE |
| | SURVEY ALONG THE EAST PROPERTY LINE. THE PERVIOUS AREA |
| | IS OUTSIDE THE FENCE ON THE ADJACENT PROPERTY. CORRECT |
| | THE PLANS TO MATCH THE SURVEY. IF PERVIOUS AREA IS |
| | BEING ADDED, INDICATE THIS ON THE SITE PLAN AND PROVIDE |
| | THE REQUIRED LANDSCAPE BUFFER ALONG THE EAST PROPERTY |
| | LINE. |
| | |
| | 3. 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. PROVIDE THE |
| | REQUIRED LANDSCAPE ISLANDS FOR ALL REQUIRED PARKING. |
| | THERE ARE TERMINAL ISLANDS MISSING IN SEVERAL |
| | LOCATIONS. |
| | |
| | 4. SECTION 94-443(C)(3) REQUIRES THAT A MINIMUM OF 75 |
| | PERCENT OF ALL TREES THAT ARE REQUIRED TO BE PLANTED |
| | WITHIN THE INTERIOR OF AN OFF STREET PARKING AREA SHALL |
| | BE CATEGORY 1 SHADE TREES. HIGH RISE OAK DOES NOT MEET |
| | THE INTENT OF PROVIDING TREE CANOPY FOR THE PARKING |
| | AREAS SO CANNOT BE COUNTED. |
| | |
| | 5. PROVIDE AN EXHIBIT SHOWING THE PARKING AREA |
| | VEHICULAR USE AREA SURFACE CALCULATIONS, PARKING SPACE |
| | AREAS AND LANDSCAPE AREAS PROVIDED TO DEMONSTRATE |
| | COMPLIANCE WITH SECTIONS 94-443 (C)(3) AND (4). PROVIDE |
| | THE CORRECTED CALCULATIONS IN THE LANDSCAPE REQUIREMENT |
| | CHART. REFER TO FIGURE XIV-1. SHOW THE ACTUAL PROVIDED |
| | INTERIOR LANDSCAPE SQUARE FOOTAGE. BUFFERS AND |
| | NON-INTERIOR LANDSCAPING CANNOT BE COUNTED. |
| | |
| | 6. STORMWATER LINE AND EXFILTRATION PROPOSED ALONG THE |
| | EAST SIDE OF THE PARKING AREA CONFLICT WITH THE |
| | REQUIRED LANDSCAPE TERMINAL ISLAND AND TREE |
| | REQUIREMENT. ADJUST THE DRAINAGE LINE TO AVOID THE |
| | REQUIRED LANDSCAPING. |
| | |
| | 7. PROVIDE A DIAGRAM OF THE 30% REQUIRED AND PROVIDED |
| | LINEAR LANDSCAPE FOR AROUND EACH BUILDING INCLUDING THE |
| | CAR WASH BUILDING AS INDICATED IN THE CODE REQUIREMENT |
| | CHART. THE CODE REQUIRES TREES SHRUBS OR HEDGES. |
| | |
| | 8. IMPERVIOUS/LANDSCAPE AREA IS NOT WITHIN THE |
| | REQUIREMENT OF 15% OF THE SITE. STAFF SUGGESTS ADDING |
| | LANDSCAPE AREA TO MEET THE 15% REQUIRED. THERE ARE MANY |
| | OPPORTUNITIES THAT CAN BE IMPROVED IN THE STORAGE AREAS |
| | |
| | 9. UTILITY LINES ARE SHOWN, BUT THERE ARE MULTIPLE |
| | CONFLICTS WITH THE LOCATIONS OF LINES AND LANDSCAPING. |
| | ADJUST LOCATIONS OF UTILITIES TO AVOID LANDSCAPE AREAS. |
| | |
| | 10. MINIMUM NUMBER OF REQUIRED TREES IS NOT MET FOR THE |
| | SITE. ADD TREES TO MEET THE MINIMUM REQUIRED. UP TO 35% |
| | OF THE REQUIRED TREES CAN BE PALM SUBSTITUTIONS. |
| | |
| | 11. PROVIDE THE 50 REQUIRED FLORIDA FRIENDLY POINTS |
| | BASED ON THE FINAL PLANT LIST PER SECTION 94-443(G) |
| | AFTER REVISIONS TO PLANS ARE MADE. |
| | |
| | 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. |
