4 <br /> <br /> <br />Boulevard Trees <br /> <br />Boulevard trees are required for all new residential subdivisions at a rate of one tree per <br />lot frontage. <br /> <br />Lots 1 and 2 have existing trees that will remain in place. The landscape plan shows one <br />boulevard tree proposed for both Lot 3 and lot 4. <br /> <br />Boulevard tree requirements is being met. <br /> <br />Tree Preservation and Mitigation Standards <br /> <br />The purpose of these standards is to protect valuable trees and stands of vegetation <br />while not interfering with landowners’ reasonable use and development of property. <br />The goal is to minimize unnecessary loss of habitat, biodiversity, and forest resources <br />and to 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 /> <br />19 trees were identified in the tree inventory, with 3 proposed for removal. 7 or the <br />remaining 16 are located off site along the western property line of lot 3. <br /> <br />The 16 trees planned for preservation must have Tree Protection Zones installed in <br />accordance with the City Tree Protection Fence Detail. The Tree Protection Zones need <br />to be shown on the Grading, Drainage and Erosion Control Plan and Landscape Plan. <br /> <br />Tree Preservation and Mitigation Standards have not been met. <br /> <br />Open Areas Landscape Standards <br /> <br />Open areas standards do not apply to single family residential lots. <br /> <br />Buffer and Screen Standards <br /> <br />The purpose of this requirement is to separate and buffer different land use types, <br />screen roads and parking, and screen utility and loading areas. The project property and <br />surrounding properties are zoned R1, so buffer and screen standards do not apply. <br /> <br />Total Trees 19 <br />Total Trees Removed 3 <br />Total Trees Preserved 16 <br />Mitigation Trees Required 0
