The detail must, at a minimum, indicate the following: o Planting depth shall be such that the first set of primary roots is at final grade. o Remove twine, wiring, ropes and burlap from top and sides of root ball. o At time of planting, only prune out dead or damaged branches. All necessary pruning cuts shall be made just outside of branch collar area. o Remove all tags and labels. o Wood chip mulch shall not be piled against the trunk of trees. • A two (2) year maintenance guarantee is required on all landscaping after initial acceptance by the City.

Three underground vaults are proposed but there is no conventional system in place to account for final discharge; is all water supposed to be infiltrated and never reach the surface? What would occur under a significant rainfall event or during frozen soil conditions? • Please provide the pre and post development rate of runoff calculations for this development. • A maintenance agreement will be required for the proposed storm sewer system outlining the expectations and requirements for the underground vault proposal. This document must be approved and recorded against the property at the time of platting. • There is a considerable amount of runoff directed down the access road to a limited number of catch basins. It may be difficult for these catch basins to capture all the water with the
