TREE PROTECTION ZONE. An area established through installation of Tree <br /> Protection Fence around a tree intended for preservation during construction and <br /> development of the surrounding area. The Tree Protection Zone includes the Root <br /> Protection Zone and all aboveground parts of the tree,including the trunk and all <br /> branches. <br /> UNDESIRABLE TREE. Trees that are dead, diseased, structurally weak, invasive <br /> or trees that are hazardous to people, infrastructure or buildings. <br /> VEHICULAR HARDSCAPE. Areas covered with hard surface intended for motor <br /> vehicles, including but not limited to off-street loading spaces, parking lots, driveway, drop-offs, <br /> and drive through facilities. <br /> WETLAND MANAGEMENT CORRIDOR. A contiguous corridor encompassing <br /> high priority wetland resources established by the Rice Creek Watershed District. <br /> WOODLAND PRESERVATIONAREA - a remnant woodland ecosystem that is <br /> generally mapped in the City's Minnesota Land Cover Classification System, and although it <br /> may be degraded it generally meets the criteria for one of the following types of ecosystems as <br /> reasonably determined by the city: alder, aspen, black ash swamp, deciduous forest, floodplain <br /> forest, lowland forest, maple-basswood, mixed hardwood swamp, northern hardwood, oak forest, <br /> paper birch, saturated or seasonally flooded deciduous forest, seasonally flooded deciduous <br /> forest, tamarack swamp, upland deciduous forest or woodland and willow swamp. <br /> (b) Landscaping Standards. New residential platted subdivisions, <br /> mixed use, commercial, institutional and industrial uses shall be subject to the <br /> landscaping standards unless specifically excepted. The landscape standards have <br /> been divided into five categories: Canopy Cover, Foundation Landscape, Open <br /> Areas Landscape, Buffer and Screen, and Boulevard Trees. Projects shall comply <br /> with the applicable requirements of all five categories. <br /> (c) Canopy Cover Standards. The purpose of this requirement is to <br /> mitigate the effects of vehicular hardscape by establishing tree canopy cover to <br /> intercept rainfall, protect pavement from sun deterioration, reduce the heat island <br /> affect, and improve aesthetics. Canopy cover requirements do not apply to single <br /> family residential development, multi-family residential development without <br /> surface parking other than individual unit driveways and permitted outdoor storage <br /> areas in Industrial Districts. <br /> 1. The required minimum canopy coverage for all uses is 40 percent. <br /> 2. The following equation shall be used to calculate required canopy <br /> coverage: <br /> Vehicular Hardscape (Square Feet)x Canopy Cover Percent= Required <br /> Minimum Canopy Cover (Square Feet) <br /> Landscape Revisions draft no comments'andsG,^^ Reviri^^s d'ir,{+' <br />
