RE: Prospect Park - Street Trees - Condition of Approval
The City Forester met with the representatives of the Prospect Shields Neighborhood Association
regarding the planting of street trees at the intersection. An agreement was reached that further
evaluation was necessary after the Payless Building was constructed. In order to document this
agreement, Staff recommends the following condition of approval be added to the Prospect Park
Final P.U.D.:
Approval of Prospect Park Final P.U.D. is conditioned upon a further evaluation of street
trees at the intersection of Prospect and Shields. Such evaluation shall take place no later than
six weeks after issuance of a Temporary/ Final Certificate of Occupancy. Such evaluation shall
include the Prospect Shields Neighborhood Association, the City Forester, the City Planning
Department, and the Developer. The purpose of the evaluation is to determine if the planting of
street trees is desirable in relation to the view of the mountains and the project. In the event that
planting is agreed upon, the City would plant the trees during the next planting season.
If necessary, such trees shall be of a height that may be less than that of a traditional deciduous
street tree.
