Re: Letter of Revision — Northside Library Landscape Improvements (SDP 2013-57)
In an effort to improve the appearance and functionality of the grounds at the Northside Library, I would
like to request making the following changes to the existing site/plan:
1. Remove existing chain link fence located along the Northeast property line adjacent to the loading
dock.
2. Install five (5) new trees (2- Amelanchier grandifolia `serviceberry', 3- Ostrya viginiana `hop
hornbeam') five feet inside the northeast property line. The new trees will be evenly spaced along
the approximately 240' planting area and will be 1.75" cal. B&B and 1.5" cal. B&B respectively.
See included plan for detail.
3. Move existing Thuja occidentalis `arborvitae' and plant along northeast property line to fill in spaces
between trees noted in item two.
I believe the benefits of approving this request will allow us to improve the aesthetics of the grounds and
provide a better growing environment for the existing London Plane trees. Removing the existing chain -
link fence, which has become overgrown with vines, small trees and poison ivy, will make the area more
open as well as provide space for the new landscaping. This new landscaping will provide a visual
barrier and vegetative screen for the rear sections of the cinder block buildings of the adjacent storage
center property.
Regards,
