Comment Summary: Department: Current Planning Contact: Jason Holland, 970-5563176, tholland(c fcgov.com Topic: Landscape Plans Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 06/08/2012 06/08/2012: Related to to comment three: 3.2.1(E)(2)(d) requires at least five feet of landscaping in front of 50% of the building. An effort to put more landscaping at the building entrance and building face should be investigated. Perhaps the eastern 25' building setback along the frontage road could be reduced. The LUC code may allow a 15- 25' building setback range. At a minimum, a shade tree should be placed in a cut-out or tree grate directly south of the HC parking space. A proposed tree south of the building can be relocated to meet this requirement. Refer to redline plan.
