Preliminary Plat and Site Plan Review: COR THREE <br />June 15, 2012 <br />Page 7 of 9 <br /> <br />Landscaping: <br />17. Prior to the issuance of any building permits within this Plat, a Landscaping Plan shall <br />be submitted by the developer for review and approval by the City. The landscaping plan shall, at a <br />minimum, identify the common and scientific name of proposed species, root stock, plant size, <br />quantity of each species and should also address/include the following: <br /> <br /> Per the new Design Framework, one (1) shade tree per every thirty-five (35) feet of street frontage <br />shall be installed within the boulevard area. This is in essence the equivalent of one (1) tree per lot <br />except for the following lots (which are wider and therefore must account for additional trees): <br /> Lot 1 (404 feet of frontage)eleven (11) trees <br />R <br /> Lot 9 (corner lot with frontages of 102 feet and 122 feet)two (2) trees on 148th Lane and three <br />R <br />(3) trees along Zeolite St NW <br /> Lot 10 (100 feet of frontage)two (2) trees <br />R <br /> Lot 13 (121 feet of frontage)three (3) trees <br />R <br /> Outlot D (102 feet of frontage along Zeolite St)two (2) trees <br />R <br /> <br />Both Outlot D and Lot 1 present unique situations. Outlot D is actually part of North Commons <br />(park); however, it would be desirable to keep a consistent appearance of street trees along Zeolite St. <br />This raises the question of who should be responsible for installation of the street trees along that <br />property. Lot 1 has a very long expanse of street frontage. As noted above, it requires eleven (11) <br />street trees based on spacing of one per thirty-five (35) feet. Some discussion should be had about <br />who will or should be responsible for the installation of a majority of the street trees for this lot. <br />th <br />Again, it would be desirable to maintain a consistent look along 148 Lane, but much of that frontage <br />will be adjacent to a steep-sloped area some distance away from the house pad. These trees maybe <br />should be installed as part of the required improvements by the developer. <br /> <br /> Due to location of driveways, hydrants, street lights, etc, planting numbers may be adjusted <br />downward if necessary to avoid future conflicts or sightline obstructions. <br /> A minimum of four (4) inches of topsoil meeting Mn/ <br />must be installed over all disturbed areas not devoted to buildings, off-street parking, driveways, <br />sidewalks, patios or other such improvements. If amending onsite topsoil, documentation must be <br />supplied to the City certifying that the amended material meets this specification prior to installation. <br /> Planting details/specifications must be included on the landscape plan and shall address among other <br />things: <br /> Planting depth (1st set of primary roots shall be at finished grade). <br />R <br /> Only prune out dead/broken/deformed branches at time of installation. <br />R <br /> Removal of upper portion of wire basket and burlap after being placed in planting hole. <br />R <br /> Install hardwood mulch dish over around each tree to a depth of two (2) to four (4) inches. <br />R <br />Mulch shall not be piled against stem of tree and shall at least extend out to the dripline of a tree. <br /> Street/boulevard trees shall have a minimum clear trunk (no branches) height of seven (7) feet to <br />R <br />avoid conflicts with pedestrians. <br /> <br />Please submit a landscaping plan for review. <br /> <br />Development Fees and Other Permits <br /> <br />Park Dedication Fee <br />18. : The proposed development is responsible for satisfying Park Dedication <br />requirements.
