This item was tabled by DRC on 4/28/25.
LDC 2.12.24 - Preliminary Buffer Plans
CODE states Show location and dimensions of required land use buffering.
LDC 6.8.6.K(3) - Buffering
CODE states C-Type buffer shall consist of a 15-foot wide landscape strip without a buffer wall. The buffer shall contain at least two shade trees and three 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 and form a layered landscape screen with a minimum height of three feet achieved within one year.
APPLICANT requests waiver because during the acquisition of the right of way of SW 49th Avenue Road, an additional 5 feet was later requested for the construction of a multi. use path along the east side. As part of the negotiations, it was understood that a reduction in the buffer width would be allowed adjacent to the road. This has been implemented along the road adjacent to the Ocala Crossings South project which is north of this Plat. Additionally, the exhibit submitted for Waiver AR 29619 indicated a reduced 10-foot buffer for this subdivision. Waiver request is for 10-foot buffer along SW 49th.
