ITEM: Deforest Court, Zoning Change

CONTACT: Brad Reid, Park Planning and Landscape Manager
COMMENT STATUS: PRELIMINARY
The Tree Survey shows that development is removing 124" of protected trees from the
site. Development is preserving 123" of trees, allowing a preservation credit of 100%.
A number of the trees located on the northern portion of the site seem to be in an area
where extensive fill will be required to bring the site out of the flood plaim The
preservation techniques used on such trees will be closely monitored and additional
mitigation may be required if it is determined these trees have little chance of survival
after development.
Please provide an executed Tree Removal Permit prior to removing trees from the site.
The developer should be aware that the Park Development Ordinance is in affect for
this development requiring park dedication or $1,285.00 per dwelling unit in lieu
thereof.
