requirements of the Tree Preservation Ordinance 585-E. There is 25.1 % of existing tree cover across
the proposed development and a minimum of 60% of the existing tree cover is required to be
preserved. A total of 40% of the existing tree cover which includes the "Marginal" trees is proposed to
be remove, and a total of 60% is proposed to be preserved.
* Except as provided by subsection 7.2.b. of the Tree Preservation Ordinance, a Tree
Conservation Analysis or Tree Conservation Plan shall be approved if it will preserve existing tree
cover in accordance with the percentage requirements established by Table 2.0. If the property has
previously received a tree permit related to development, the percentage of existing tree cover at the
time the first such permit was issued shall be used to calculate the minimum existing tree cover that
must be preserved under this section.

Public Works/Engineering Review
GENERAL COMMENTS:

toward the proposed inlets to the east?
2. The cul-de-sac flow arrows shows the flow to be towards the back of the cul-de-sac, however,
there is no storm infrastructure shown in this section. How will drainage flow be mitigated in the
cul-de-sac?
