Townhomes Project Development Plan submittal. There are three (8) species of trees on site including:
spruce, crab apple, Austrian pine, hackberry, mugo pine, honey locust, Kentucky coffee tree, and Texas
red oak.
As depicted on the mitigation plan, a total of thirty-one (31) trees are to be removed and sixteen (10) to
remain or transplanted. Transplanted tree locations are shown on Landscape Sheets 4 &5 of this PDP
submittal. The reason for tree removal is due to the proposed development of Kechter Farm Mixed Use
Townhomes. The following trees are proposed to be removed: Tree #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7, #9, #10, #11,
#12,#14, #15, #16, #17, #19, #20, #22, #23, #24, #25, #26, #28, #29, #30, #31, #32, #33, #34, #35#36,
