The following equation shall be used to calculate required foundation landscape <br />plantings: <br />Building Linear Feet / 100 = # of required trees and shrubs <br />c. The foundation landscape shall be planted in the foundation landscape zone adjacent to <br />the building face where the requirement applies. The City may allow flexible planting <br />locations where service areas or other constraints make the requirement difficult to meet. <br />d. Existing trees may be used to fulfill foundation landscaping as described in Section 9. <br />6 Open Areas Landscape (OL) Standards: The purpose of -- --- hese standards <br />is to provide general site beautification and high aesthetic quality with a mix of plant <br />materials in open areas. Open areas include disturbed site areas, such as cul de sac islands, <br />boulevard medians, storm water management areas, common areas in multifamily sites that <br />are not for recreation facilities, and disturbed areas that are not located within the foundation <br />landscape zone, vehicular hardscape area or the building footprint. Open areas landscaping <br />shall meet the following standards. <br />a.
