Large trees in an island containing <br />3 more trees are given additional <br />Canopy Value. See Canopy Coverage <br />Table, <br />Trees surrounded by hardscape on 3 <br />sides are valued at 100% Canopy. <br />Trees with access to planting soil <br />outside of the island are required to <br />meet soil volume requirements for a <br />shared bed. <br />Trees it interior islands are valued at <br />100% Canopy <br />4. Existing trees may be used to fulfill canopy coverage, as described in § 1007.043 <br />(17)(h), when the drip line has proximity to the edge of the hardscape; therefore, existing trees do <br />not need to be within less than 7' feet of the vehicular hardscape edge. <br />(d) Foundation Landscape Standards. The purpose of these standards is to soften and <br />enhance building architecture, define access points, add color and seasonal interest, and to blend <br />buildings in with the natural environment. Foundation Landscaping Standards do not apply to <br />single family residential development. <br />1. The foundation landscape planting standards are described in the following table: <br />Foundation Landscape Standards <br />2. Rounded to the nearest tenth, with a minimum factor of one. <br />3. Round all calculations to the nearest whole number of plants. <br />4. The required plant materials shall be planted in the foundation landscape zone <br />adjacent to the building face where the requirement applies. The City may allow flexible <br />planting locations where service areas or other constraints make the standards difficult to meet. <br />5. Existing trees may be used to fulfill the Foundation Landscape Standards as <br />described in §1007.043 (17)(h). <br />3-33 <br />Per 100 linear feet (LF) of Building* <br />Location <br />Trees and Shrubs <br />Front and <br />Public/Private Street <br />2 large <br />6 large <br />2.
