2. The following equation shall be used to calculate required canopy coverage: <br />Vehicular Haddscape (Square Feet) x Canopy Cover Percent = Required <br />Minimum Canopy Cover (Square Feet) <br />The total of the assigned canopy coverage values for all the trees in or near the <br />vehicular hardscape must be equal or greater than the required minimum. Pervious pavements <br />are considered 50 percent hardscape. <br />3. The assigned canopy coverage value of each tree is based on planting location, <br />tree size and anticipated tree canopy size 15 years after planting. The assigned canopy cover <br />value to each deciduous tree is described in the following table and illustrations: <br />Table 1 <br />Assigned Canopy Cover Value <br />Interior <br />Within less <br />7'-12' from <br />parking lot <br />than 7' of <br />vehicular hardscape <br />Planting Location <br />islands <br />vehicular <br />edge <br />(for new trees) <br />hardscape <br />edge <br />Assigned Canopy <br />100 percent of <br />50 percent <br />25 percent of the <br />Coverage Value <br />the canopy <br />of the <br />canopy square <br />square footage <br />canopy <br />footage <br />square <br />footage <br />Square <br />950 SF (or <br />feet (SF) of <br />Large Tree <br />1200 SF in <br />600 SF <br />300 SF <br />canopy <br />islands of 3 or <br />coverage <br />more trees <br />assigned to <br />Medium <br />500 SF <br />250 SF <br />125 SF <br />each <br />Tree <br />deciduous <br />tree <br />Small Tree <br />250 SF <br />125 SF <br />NA <br />Existing <br />Tree: <br />1900 SF <br />950 SF <br />NA <br />6 —12" dbh <br />Existing <br />Tree: <br />2850 SF <br />1425 SF <br />NA <br />12+"dbh <br />105 <br />
