| | 561-822-1462 |
| | PROJECT: 2235 OKEECHOBEE Z22090007 |
| | MARCH 27, 2023 |
| | I HAVE REVIEWED THE ABOVE REFERENCED PETITION, AND |
| | PROVIDE THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS: |
| | |
| | 1. SATISFIED. 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. |
| | MAKE THE FOLLOWING CORRECTIONS TO THE TREE DISPOSITION |
| | CHART: |
| | ??? TREE #6 PLUMERIA IS CATEGORY 2, SO MITIGATION DUE |
| | IS 150 SQ FT. |
| | ??? TREE #56 QUEEN PALM IS CATEGORY 4, SO MITIGATION |
| | DUE IS 50 SQ FT. |
| | ??? WITH THE ABOVE CHANGES, REVISED TOTAL CANOPY |
| | MITIGATION SHOULD BE 1241 SQ FT. |
| | |
| | 2. SATISFIED. 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. |
| | THE VEHICLE OVERHANG IS OVERLAPPING 2 FEET OF THE 5 |
| | FOOT BUFFER, ADJUST THE PARKING SPACE TO THE WEST TO |
| | ELIMINATE ENCROACHMENT INTO THE LANDSCAPE BUFFER. |
| | |
| | |
| | 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. PROVIDE THE |
| | REQUIRED LANDSCAPE ISLANDS FOR ALL REQUIRED PARKING. |
| | THERE ARE TERMINAL ISLANDS MISSING IN SEVERAL |
| | LOCATIONS. |
| | THE ROW OF PARKING DIRECTLY SOUTH OF THE NEW BUILDING |
| | IS LACKING A TERMINAL ISLAND ADJACENT TO THE BUILDING |
| | ON THE WEST END OF THE ROW. A TERMINAL ISLAND CURRENTLY |
| | EXISTS IN THIS LOCATION. THE INTERIOR LANDSCAPE ISLAND |
| | ADDED AT THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF THE PARKING ROW |
| | ADJACENT TO OKEECHOBEE NEEDS TO BE LOCATED ON THE EAST |
| | SIDE OF THE ADA SPACES SO THERE ARE NO MORE THAN 10 |
| | SPACES IN A ROW. |
| | |
| | 4. SATISFIED. 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. |
| | MAKE ALL ADJUSTMENTS FROM OTHER COMMENTS AND |
| | RECALCULATE THIS. |
| | |
| | |
| | 5. SATISFIED. 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. |
| | ADDRESS THE MISSING TERMINAL ISLANDS FROM COMMENT #3 |
| | AND ADJUST ON THE PLAN. |
| | |
| | |
| | 6. SATISFIED. 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. SATISFIED. 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. |
| | THE CALCULATIONS PROVIDED DO NOT CORRECTLY SHOW THE |
| | PERCENTAGE FOR EACH BUILDING. PROVIDE A DIAGRAM SHOWING |
| | COMPLIANCE. |
| | |
| | |
| | 8. SATISFIED. 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. SATISFIED. 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. SATISFIED. 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. SATISFIED. 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. |
| | 2. THE NONCONFORMITY FOR MEETING THE 15% |
| | LANDSCAPE/PERVIOUS AREA HAS BEEN REDUCED AND THE |
| | APPROVED PLANS WITH THIS PETITION PROVIDE 9.3%. ANY |
| | FUTURE CHANGES TO THE SITE CANNOT FALL BELOW THE |
| | APPROVED AREA. |
