From: Tim Buchanan
Re: 500 Washington
Some changes need to be made to the street tree locations and species selection. See
comments on the attached plan.
Add these landscape notes.
The soil in all landscape areas, including parkways and medians, shall be
thoroughly loosened to a depth of not less than eight (8) inches and soil
amendment shall be thoroughly incorporated into the soil of all landscape areas to
a depth of at least six (6) inches by tilling, discing or other suitable methods, at a
rate of at least three (3) cubic yards of soil amendment per one thousand (1,000)
square feet of landscape area.
2. A permit must be obtained from the City Forester before any trees or shrubs as
noted on this plan are planted, pruned or removed on the public right-of-way. This
includes zones between the sidewalk and curb, medians and other city property.
This permit shall approve the location and species to be planted. Failure to obtain
this permit may result in replacing or relocating trees and a hold on certificate of
occupancy.
3. The developer shall contact the City Forester to inspect all street tree plantings at
the completion of each phase of the development. All trees need to have been
installed as shown on the landscape plan. Approval of street tree planting is
required before final approval of each phase. Failure to obtain approval by the
City Forester for street trees in a phase shall result in a hold on certificate of
occupancy for future phases of the development.

[3/19/07] As shown on the plans, it's doubtful that the sewer service could be
installed or maintained without encroaching where there is no easement. It appears
that two 45-degree bends are needed.
Be sure and return all of your redlined plans when you re -submit.
If you have any questions regarding these issues or any other issues related to this
project, please feel free to call me at (970) 221-6750.
