Case No. Attachment C ZA25-0064 Page 2 _________________________________________________________________________________ Tree Conservation/Landscape Review 1. The Tree Protection Plan that was submitted within the Civil Plan does not conform to the development’s approved Tree Conservation Plan. Trees #589, #590, and #595 will likely be removed with home construction shown as “marginalized” on the approved plan. Please submit a Tree Conservation Plan which conforms to the development’s approved Tree Conservation Plan. Trees shown as preserved will require removal permits and mitigation or fines. 2. Upon approval of the development the Southlake City Council made a motion to allow administrative adjustment and realignment of the road and lots to save the two Post Oak trees in the northeast corner of Lot 1. We feel that it would be beneficial to provide a Tree Preservation Easement in the northeast corner of Lot 1, and southeast corner of Lot 3 to better preserve the two trees. * 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. Table 2.0 – Existing Tree Cover Preservation Requirements Percentage of existing tree cover on the entire site Minimum percentage of the existing tree cover to be preserved* 0% – 20% 70% 20.1 – 40% 60% 40.1% - 60% 50% 60.1% - 80% 40% 80.1% - 100% 30% *The minimum percentage of existing tree cover to be preserved shall exclude any area in public rights-of-way as approved by City Council. * Please be aware that all existing trees shown to be preserved on the City Council approved Tree Conservation Plan must be preserved and protected during all phases and construction of the development. Alteration or removal of any of the existing trees shown to be preserved on the approved Tree Conservation Plan is a violation of the Tree Preservation Ordinance and the zoning as approved by the Southlake City Council. Please ensure that the layout of all structures, easements, utilities, structures grading, and any other structure proposed to be constructed do not conflict with existing trees intended to be preserved. * Indicates informational comment. # Indicates required items comment.
