5 <br /> <br />Alternative Urban Areawide Review (AUAR) Considerations <br /> <br />The site is not within the 2005 I-35E Corridor AUAR environmental review boundary. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Drinking Water Protection <br /> <br />The site is not within the Drinking Water Supply Management Area (DWSMA). The site <br />will be connected to City sewer and water. Stormwater infiltration is planned. <br /> <br />LANDSCAPE PLAN <br /> <br />Tree Preservation and Mitigation Standards <br /> <br />The purpose of these standards is to protect valuable trees and stands of vegetation while <br />not interfering with landowners’ reasonable use and development of property. The goal <br />is to minimize unnecessary loss of habitat, biodiversity, and forest resources and to <br />replace removed trees in areas where tree cover is most critical. <br /> <br />A tree survey was performed that identified: <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />The majority of the trees planned for removal are in the Basic Use Area, not in <br />Environmentally Sensitive Areas, and will not require mitigation trees. <br /> <br />Several trees marked for saving are invasive Siberian elms that should be removed. <br />Mitigation trees will not be required for these removals. <br /> <br />Updates required to the tree survey and preservation plan will be included in the <br />recommendations. <br /> <br />There will be 7 mitigation trees required. The 4 existing trees that will be preserved <br />provide 12 trees worth of credit. These 4 trees to preserve will require tree protection <br />zones to be installed in accordance with the City Tree Protection Fence Detail. <br />No additional mitigation trees will be required. <br /> <br />Tree Preservation and Mitigation Standards have been met. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Total Trees 133 <br />Total Trees Removed 117 <br />Total Trees Saved 16
