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.

ramp number (CR #) conforming to 2004 FDOT Index 304 or detail conforming to

ramps shall meet all applicable local, regional, state, and federal accessibility
