LDC 6.7.4.A - Shade Trees
CODE states the post-development ratio of shade trees to the area of the site shall be a minimum of one shade tree per 3,000 square feet.
APPLICANT requests to reconfirm original waiver of November 9, 2022 and confirms a reduction in the number of required shade trees to at least 50% of the requirement for the overall site.
LDC 6.8.6.K(1) - Buffers
CODE states A-Type buffer shall consist of a 30-foot wide landscape strip without a buffer wall. The buffer shall contain at least three shade trees and five accent/ornamental trees for every 100 lineal feet or fractional part thereof. Shrubs and groundcovers, excluding turfgrass, shall comprise at least 50 percent of the required buffer area and shall form a layered landscape screen with a minimum height of three feet achieved within one year of planting.
APPLICANT requests to reconfirm original waiver that no ornamental trees are required within the buffers. In lieu of buffer wall within the buffer use the solid rear building wall of the proposed 16 ft. height hangers to meet this requirement. Waiver from buffering adjacent property owned by the applicant (doesn't need to buffer from adjoining property under same ownership). Utilize existing vegetation to meet the 50% landscape within the buffer. Waiver of 5-foot planting strip along hanger drives and aprons.
LDC 6.8.8.B - Building Landscaping
CODE states landscape areas shall be provided adjacent to or within 25 feet from the building walls and shall extend along 60 percent of the total length of the wall, excluding those areas required for access to the building.
APPLICANT requests to reconfirm original waiver of building landscaping because these buildings cannot be seen from any public right-of-way.
