If the Administrative Official issues such a permit,the protected trees covered by the permit shall be exempt from the tree replacement and tree protection requirements. However,protected trees altered in excess of seven (7) per calendar year are not exempted from the tree replacement and tree protection requirements. An owner wishing to remove more thar seven protected trees in any calendar year shall apply for and obtain a tree permit or Multiple Tree Clearing permit and comply with this Ordinance. d. Multiple Tree Clearing on"AG"Zoned Property: i. An owner seeking a permit for Multiple Tree Clearing from property zoned Agricultural AG" shall submit a request in writing to the Administrative Official, along with a survey, map or diagram showing the area to be cleared and the number, size and the location of protected trees in such area,a written statement from the applicant des.:ribing hc purpose and reason for the Muitipie Tree Clearing, such other information or documents as may be requested by the Administrative Official,and the appropriate fee as provided in the fec schedule. ii.

All other areas of the proposed development, including areas in utility easements and areas designated for cuutill for any purpose other than required drainage and infrastructure improvements,shall be subject to both the tree protection and tree replacement requirements of this Ordinance. d. For residential development, the building pad may be constructed at the same time as the installation of the infrastructure if it provides a greater benefit to the environment and the grading pans have been approved for both the installation of the infrastructure and the ouilding pad. If the building pad or footprint of the building is modified from the original plan,the owner shall be required to mitigate any trees previously removed if the Administrative Official determines that the removal of the trees would not have been required but for the modification.. e. Prior to the issuance of an earth disturbance permit for a single lot residential development,the Administrative Official shall ensure that: i. The proposed building ar.d site plans meet the conditions of the City Council approved Tree Conservation Plan;and ii.
