Rachel,
Thanks for providing the extra information. I think the detail is fine. Please include those dimensions on the plan. I have
no further comments.
Thanks.

Margaret,
Hope you had a good weekend. Just wanted to check in to see if you had a chance to take a look at our responses and if I
could give any more information or provide additional changes to this layout.
Thank you,
Rachel

Margaret,
Thank you for your review of ABC Block 5 (ARB2020-132). I've received your comments and have attached an exhibit
with the requested information.
32.7.9.9b requires planting islands to have a minimum of 50 sf per tree, with a minimum dimension of five feet, and
barriers to prevent damage by vehicles.The islands at the angled parking spaces do not appear to meet the 50--sf
requirement. Please revise the design to meet the requirements. Provide a detail of the planting island showing
dimensions and total area, and tree placement that avoids damage by vehicles. Ensure that the mature size of the tree
species chosen for the planting islands is suited to the close proximity to the building.
The tree islands are approximately 70 SF (exact area of 69.7 SF), and the trees shown on the site plan and the attached
exhibit are drawn with a caliper of 14-15", to account for mature growth.The tree is to be planted outside of the
designated overhang, with the curb acting as a barrier to protect the tree. With the growth habit of the American Elms,
the vase-like form of the Elms should do well in close proximity to the building. The exhibit shows the American Elms at
a mature canopy of 400 SF.
Please let us know if you have any other questions regarding these landscape islands.
Thank you,
Rachel
