Signage shall <br />be installed to instruct workers to stay out of the Root Protection <br />Zone. <br />b. Areas where development must encroach upon the root protection <br />zone must be identified on the tree preservation plan in which case <br />the fencing shall be installed at that edge. <br />c.
