Screening, Landscaping, Buffer Yards and Tree Preservation Per the May 28, 2025 Environmental Board staff report: Tree Preservation and Mitigation Standards The purpose of these standards is to protect valuable trees and stands of vegetation while not interfering with landowners' reasonable use and development of property. The goal is to minimize unnecessary loss of habitat, biodiversity, and forest resources and to replace removed trees in areas where tree cover is most critical. A tree survey has been provided. Most of the trees on site are oak, pine, maple. Majority of the trees were planted as windbreaks from the adjacent agricultural use. The tree inventory will need to be updated to only include significant trees and trees within the project location. The coniferous trees will need to be included by height. The site falls primarily withing the basic use area. No mitigation is required within this area. Twelve trees are being proposed for removal within the stormwater management area.
