CONTINUED – FORRESTRY COMMENTS (ADDED HERE BY AEROSOLUTIONS) 4 2 12/6/18: City Forestry will provide the Development Review Coordinator with the updated tree inventory information. This table will include species, diameter, condition, and appraised value for each tree. Please include this information on the site plan. Redlines provided to show matching tree #s. Reference TM-1 3 12/6/18: City Forestry has reviewed the layout of the new fiber line and would like to request that this line be installed through boring techniques. Forestry requests that the boring start near the right-of-way along Olive and then work toward the building. Working in this direction will limit the impact of boring equipment and drilling near the tree closest to the building. In addition, the boring should be done at a minimum of 48” or deeper to avoid all tree roots. Tree protection in the form of concrete blankets around tree trunks should be installed prior to on-site construction. Note added to TM-1 4 12/6/18: The appraised values of each tree within proximity to the project is shown in the tree inventory table. Please add the following note to the site plan, preferably below the tree inventory table: “Any damage to a tree as a direct result of this activity will result in fines equal to $1,000 per inch of damaged area up to the total appraised value of each tree. If a tree is girdled 40% or higher, then the full appraised value of the tree will be collected by City Forestry.” Reference TM-1
