This area will consist of four surface types, new landscaping, new gravel, new concrete, and existing asphalt. Landscaping will cover 696 SF, gravel 499 SF, concrete 165 SF, and existing asphalt 116 SF. Since the proposed project site is currently covered with an impervious surface (asphalt), this development will actually benefit the parcel by decreasing the amount of impervious surfaces.
