5. [32.5.2(b) & Section X] Provide the number of stories in the proposed building.

proposed plantings to demonstrate landscape plan and Code of Development requirements have been met.
21. 132.5.2(p) & 32.7.9.4(b)] Existing trees may be preserved in lieu of planting new plant materials in order to
satisfy the landscaping and screening requirements of section 32.7.9, subject to the agent's approval. If you

trees and screening shrubs for the parking lot in Block 5; provide landscaping that meets this requirement.
27. [32.5.2(p) & 32.7.9.6(a)] The landscape notes indicate 5% of 17,098 SF has been provided in landscape
area. What is the 17,098 number referencing?
28. [32.5.2(p) & 32.7.9.6(a)] One of the 'landscaped areas' noted on the landscape plan does not have any

30. 132.5.2(p), 32.7.9.7 & COD Section IX] As noted above, the table in Section IX requires screening shrubs
for the parking lot in Block 5; provide landscaping to meet this requirement and 32.7.9.7.

trees; see above for direction on how to verify and document preservation of existing trees.
33. [32.5.2(p), 32.7.9.8, and COD] The percentage of tree canopy required is determined by the gross
residential density of the overall project. The maximum gross residential density for Blocks 1 -5 is listed in
the Code of Development as 8.1 dwelling units/acre, which would require 20% tree canopy. Revise the
landscape notes to use 20% as the basis for the tree canopy requirement.
34. [32.6.2(p)] Show all utility lines and easements on the landscape plan to demonstrate no site conflicts exist.
35. [32.5.2(p) & COD Section IX] Section IX states that all plant species must conform to the Native Plants for

this development; their reply will be forwarded once received.
37. [4.17] Lighting fixture B does not appear to be full cutoff; either select a different fixture or specify a different
bulb that emits less than 3000 lumen.
38. [4.17] The catalog number provided for fixture B in the luminaire schedule does not match that provided on
the cut - sheet; verify and revise.
39. [4.17] List the tilt for f=ixture A in the luminaire schedule.
40. [4.17] Provide the following standard lighting note on the lighting plan: Each outdoor luminaire equipped
with a lamp that emits 3, 000 or more initial lumens shall be a full cutoff luminaire and shall be arranged or
shielded to reflect light away from adjoining residential districts and away from adjacent roads. The spillover
of lighting from luminaires onto public roads and property in residential or rural areas zoning districts shall
not exceed one -half foot - candle.
41. [Comment] ARB approval is required. ARB comments will be provided after the September 8th meeting.
42. [Comment] If any off -site easements are required, they must be approved and recorded prior to Site Plan
approval. Among possible others, it appears an easement will be required for proposed grading in several
areas of the County owned park parcel.
43. [Comment] Clarify if an easement is being created for the new roof drain line coming on to the parcel.
