The proposed project has 8,000 linear feet of proposed building subject to the foundation <br />landscape standards. Requirements of 160 large trees and 480 large shrubs are currently being <br />provided. <br />Standards for this section are being met. <br />Sod and Ground Cover Standards <br />All areas not otherwise improved in accordance with the approved site plans shall have a <br />minimum depth of 4 inches of topsoil and be sodded including boulevard areas. Seed may be <br />provided in lieu of sod in certain cases, including when the area is adjacent to natural areas or <br />wetlands. <br />Native weed free seed mixes should be shown in stormwater and open space areas to mitigate <br />for the removal of native vegetation with the development. Native vegetation will help <br />establish deeper roots, limit erosion, reduction of irrigation, and provide pollinator habitat. <br />Low maintenance turf grass should be proposed in order to conserve water throughout the site. <br />Additionally native seed mixes should be proposed to create habitat and reduce strain on the <br />water supply system. <br />Plantings adjacent to the buildings should also be drought tolerant to reduce the need for <br />irrigation. If irrigation is not being proposed through reuse native species should be planted <br />where feasible. <br />Environmental Review Record <br />An Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) was completed. On February 10, 2025, the <br />City Council passed Resolution No. 25-12 approving the Record of Decision and Making a <br />Negative Declaration on the Need for an Environmental Impact Statement for the North Oaks <br />Mixed Use Development. <br />Wetlands <br />Per the March 3, 2025 Wetland Replacement Plan, there are three (3) wetlands on the site. <br />Wetland Name <br />Area <br />Management <br />Class <br />Base Buffer <br />Width <br />Min Buffer <br />Width <br />Wetland 1 <br />7.95 acres <br />Manage 2 <br />30 ft <br />24 ft <br />20 <br />
