The tree preservation plan shall be based on the tree survey. <br />c. If a tree survey shows that no desirable deciduous trees over 6" <br />dbh or evergreen trees greater than 12' in height on the <br />development property or adjacent properties are near the <br />construction area, the City may waive the tree preservation plan <br />requirement. <br />d. A tree plan shall identify: <br />1) The basic use area. <br />2) The disturbance area. <br />3) Tree size (dbh), species, condition, location, and root <br />protection zone (5' out from the drip line) for all deciduous <br />trees over 6" dbh or evergreen trees greater than 12' tall to <br />be preserved, or; <br />Lino Lakes Zoning Ordinance Amended General Provisions <br />Updated August 2012 3-44 <br />
