WHERE EXISTING TREES ARE SHOWN TO REMAIN WITHIN PROPOSED PLANT BEDS OR SOD AREAS, THE DEPTH OF REQUIRED EXCAVATION FOR BED PREPARATION MAY BE REDUCED AS NECESSARY TO AVOID DAMAGE TO TREE ROOTS TO REMAIN. 10. ST. AUGUSTINE SOD WILL BE USED IN ALL IRRIGATED MEDIANS AND ISLANDS AND 15 QUANTIFIED IN THESE LANDSCAPE PLANS. BAHIA SOD WILL BE USED IN ALL UNIRRIGATED ISLANDS AND AT BACK OF SIDEWALK AREAS AND IS QUANTIFIED IN THE ROADWAY PLANS. 11.
