Review File: Sunwood Village <br />Site Plan Review: Landscaping <br />March 27, 2015 <br />Page 2 of 2 <br />specification. A topsoil inspection is required prior to landscaping being installed and <br />copies of the load tickets are required as well. This is reviewed at time of Building <br />Permit Application and request for Certificate of Occupancy. Please update the Landscape <br />Installation Notes to include this requirement. <br />Please submit a revised landscaping plan that addresses these matters. <br />Tree Preservation: This site is devoid of any significant tree cover and therefore, no tree <br />preservation plan is necessary. <br />Best Management Practices (BMPs): There are a couple BMPs proposed with this project. First, satisfy <br />the Lower Rum River Water Management Organization's (LRRWMO) infiltration requirement, the <br />project proposes to capture the first one (1) inch of rainfall from the site with an underground cistern. <br />However, since the project site is within a 10 -year capture zone of one of the community wells where <br />infiltration is not permitted, the captured runoff will be used for irrigation purposes onsite. The second <br />BMP proposed is the use of a tree trench. This essentially is a lined trench that will also be used to <br />store stormwater runoff for uptake by trees and other vegetation. Both BMPs have overflow <br />measures built in that allow runoff from larger events to be routed through to the existing stormwater <br />sewer system. <br />
