Landscape Review Reviewer: Chris Anderson canderson(iii. ramsev. mn. us 763 - 433 -9905 Landscaping Plan: The landscaping plan prepared by Landform, dated October 5, 2010, revised December 3, 2010, is generally acceptable with the following comments: • The Landscape Plan indicates an area of a shared parking island with certain landscape improvements. This area should be incorporated into the required shared access agreement that outlines maintenance responsibilities of this shared area. • The plan should note that (6) foot wide boulevard area along Civic Center Dr. is to be improved with sod (and the sod should be a variety that is tolerant of deicing salts). Please make appropriate revisions on the final plans. Tree Preservation: This site is devoid of any significant tree cover and therefore, no tree preservation plan is necessary.
