Memo to File From: Ross Gilmore, Forestry Technician J� Subject: SPLN- 06 -03 -05 Cimarron Cove (Parcel 31.04) — Commercial Date: April 12, 2006 I have reviewed the Land Development Regulations for the above - referenced application and provide the following comments: Certification Issues: 1. The Development Application requires the applicant to provide documentation showing what areas were designated as open space for the property in CAD format on CD ROM. While the applicant has provided a CD ROM containing CAD drawings for the site, we have not been able to verify the open space. The CAD file will contain the DWG, DXF, DGN file extensions in version 2004 or earlier. The CAD file shall contain a separate layer for each of the following categories: property boundary, impervious areas, pervious areas, and areas designated as open space. Open space shall be further separated into lake tracts, preserve areas, perimeter buffers, easements, recreation area, and open space used in the calculation of required landscape points. Each layer shall be clearly labeled using the categories listed above. All drawings shall be defined as closed polygons. The applicant shall work with the City's GIS department to resolve this issue so the amount of open space provided can be confirmed. 2. The applicant is requesting a waiver from Section 78 -320 of the LDR, to allow the reduction in foundation plantings within high pedestrian traffic areas. In exchange for this waiver, I recommend the applicant installs trees and palms exceeding the height requirements shown in Table 30 within the pedestrian areas adjacent to the proposed buildings. All landscape islands within the vehicle use areas shall contain Live oak trees 16 feet in height at the time of installation. The applicant shall label the landscape plan as an Alternative Landscape Plan. 3. In accordance with Section 78 -306 of the LDR, all locations for proposed utilities, easements, and light fixtures shall be shown on the landscape plan as to prevent possible conflicts. Areas of special concern are utilities leading into buildings, FP &L ground mounted transformers, SUA master meters and backflow preventers. Due to the design of the site utilizing extensive plazas surrounding the proposed buildings, I recommend locating all ground mounted equipment and backflow preventers away form the buildings and plazas. These items shall be located within the vehicle use area or in the perimeter landscape areas. Please revise the site plan and landscape plan to show the location of these items and to eliminate all conflicts with landscaping. Also, please show the required screening for all ground mounted utility equipment and backflow preventers on the landscape plan. 4. In accordance with Section 78- 315(a) of the LDR, the minimum shade tree spacing for interior parking areas shall be such that the center of any parking space is not more than 40 feet from the center of the shade tree or by a minimum of three palms clustered together. A shade tree is defined by code as a tree which, by virtue of its natural shape, provides at maturity a canopy with a minimum diameter of 25 feet. Three of the areas shown as optional covered parking and the handicapped parking located on the west side of the proposed buildings do not meet this requirement. Please revise the landscape plan accordingly. 5. In accordance with Section 78 -374 of the LDR, covered parking structures shall not exceed five percent of the total required parking spaces for the site and shall not interfere with the required landscaping. The site plan and landscape plan show four locations for optional covered parking which includes a total of 80 parking spaces. The total number of required parking spaces is 396. This exceeds the maximum number allowed by code and would require a waiver. Also, the use of covered parking structures does not negate the requirement for a landscape island, containing a shade tree, for every nine parking spaces located in a row. The applicant shall revise the site plan and landscape plan accordingly or request the appropriate waivers. 6. In accordance with Section 78 -313 of the LDR, a minimum of 75 percent of the plant material proposed is to be from the City's Preferred Species List for each of the following categories: trees, shrubs, and ground covers. Please revise the plant list into the categories listed above and provide documentation showing the preferred species requirement has been met. 7. Table 27 on page CD78:252 of the LDR shows the points allowed by code for trees, palms, shrubs, ground covers, and grass. Please revise the point calculations for the proposed landscape material. 8. In accordance with Section 78- 320(a) (4) c. of the LDR, nonresidential buildings shall have at least one shade tree or palm cluster installed for each 30 linear feet, or fraction thereof, of facade width. Trees and palms shall be of an installed size relating to the height of the adjacent wall or facade, as indicated in Table 30. Please update the site plan and landscape plan by installing the number of trees meeting the minimum height required by code. 9. In accordance with Section 78 -320 of the LDR, foundation landscaping shall be installed within ten feet of all nonresidential buildings and structures. The foundation planting area for a building of two or more stories shall be not less than 30 percent of the height of the adjacent wall. The proposed plan does not provide a foundation planting area adjacent to the east facade of the proposed building or west fagade of the existing building. Please update the site plan and landscape plan accordingly. 10. In accordance with Section 78 -315 of the LDR, all landscape areas shall be protected by curbs or wheel stops from vehicular encroachment and from the damages caused by vehicles overhanging into landscape areas. Landscaping, except grass, shall be required to be at least two feet six inches from the edge of the wheel stop or curbing. Overhang areas shall not be permitted to be counted as open space. I recommend the applicant reduces the perimeter parking stalls to 16 feet in length. This will provide the proper overhang area while not infringing into the required landscape buffer. Another option would be to install wheel stops. Please revise the site plan and landscape plan accordingly. 11. In accordance with Section 78 -313 of the LDR, not more than 40 percent of the total landscape area shall be covered by sod or grass. Those projects proposing playgrounds, ball - fields, golf courses, dry detention areas or similar uses may subtract the open space square footage of these grassy areas from the landscape area calculation for a corrected total. The applicant has shown a figure for the maximum amount of sod allowed by computing 40 percent of the square footage for the entire amount of open space provided which includes the lake surface area. The applicant shall revise the figure to demonstrate compliance with the code as outlined above. Non - Certification Issues: 12. Please revise the landscape plan to include the installation of a hedge along the three walls of the dumpster enclosures. 13. In accordance with Section 78 -563 of the LDR, please clearly label and show locations of the required twenty foot wide lake access easements on the site plan and landscape plan. 14. Please remove the approval date from the root barrier detail as the detail has not been approved by City Council. 15. Please provide a cross - section for the area between the preserve and the adjacent parking spaces. The cross - section shall be of the narrowest area and depict changes in elevation. Also, please understand that additional information may be requested, and staff may have additional comments as the review process continues.
