trees must comply with the standards as specified in 3.2.1(D)(3). Since you are
proposing 56 trees, this section of the code specifies that no more than 25% of
those trees can be any one species. This limits any one species to no more than 14
trees. You have proposed one species that exceeds this limit.
g. "Thick Butt Arch Shingles" is not a commonly used term. Please specify the
Shingles to be "high profile shadowline" with a minimum 350 Ibs/square or something
comparable. The shingles should be provided with a minimum of 2 shades,
preferably two distinctly different shades of tan or brown.
h. As discussed, the architectural elements of buildings M, N, & 0 need to be varied.

Transportation Planning, Zoning, AT&T Cable, Technical Services, Public Service,
Post Office, Advance Planning:
a. Please seethe attached comment sheets and/or redlined plans from these
departments and agencies.
2. Current Planning:
a. Section 2.2.11 of the Land Use Code requires that an applicant submit revisions
based on this letter within 90 days or the project application becomes null and void.
Your response to the City's concerns is due by April 18, 2001. A 30 day extension
to this deadline is available. All requests for an extension should be directed to the
Current Planning Director. If remaining issues are those that do not require plan
revisions, a status report verifying continuing efforts toward resolving the issues is
required within the some timeline.
b. Why is there no access easement on the plat for the private drive/parking lots?
The definition of private drive in Article 5 of the LUC specifies that a private
easement for road purposes is needed. Check with Marc Virata in Engineering if this
access easement is necessary.
c. As discussed last week, the 2 plats need to be combined into one plat.
d. Add another tree between buildings K & J, between building O & G-13. Full Tree
Stocking is required in all landscaped areas within 50 feet of any building. Full Tree
Stocking is formal and informal groupings of trees spaced at 30 to 40 foot spacing
intervals. See section 3.2.1(D)(1)(c) of the LUC.
e. Please revise the lighting plan to include the footcandle numbers throughout the
site. Section 3.2.4 of the LUC requires light sources to be fully shielded and shall
feature sharp cut-off capability so as to minimize up -light, spill -light, glare and
