There seemed to be agreement that 30' apart was a good distance. Mr. Swift suggested that <br />a literal determination is sometimes not good. He thought the Board's intent was to have an <br />encompassing canopy. <br />There was then a discussion on how to enhance the growth of trees by extra <br />nourishment and plenty of water. There was also discussion on the number of palm trees to <br />create a canopy effect, and Mr. Robinson pointed out that there needed to be different <br />standards for palm trees versus oak trees. <br />Chairman Eggert reviewed page 4 of the memorandum and asked if there were any <br />more questions. <br />Commissioner Ginn raised the issue of walls versus fences saying that fences look <br />bad quickly. <br />There was a brief discussion about vinyl fences and look -alike -materials; plantings <br />on both sides of a wall; and defining the buffering and camouflaging of loading areas and <br />loading docks. <br />With respect to loading docks, Commisioner Adams thought that each request be <br />handled individually, especially since a business can sell to another who may use the loading <br />dock differently. <br />There was agreement that each site is different and regulations should be written to <br />allow some flexibility. <br />There was brief discussion concerning the request of FP&L with respect to tree <br />planting. Their representative was unable to attend. <br />Commisioner Adams commented that FP&L looks at trees differently, from a <br />trimming and interference view. Many of FP&L's problems come from untended rights-of- <br />way and tree installations by uneducated property owners. She believed the lines should be <br />put underground. <br />Mr. Dittman spoke from experience in a power company and advised that the <br />trouble -shooting for outages in underground lines is much harder than looking for problems <br />in overhead lines. <br />Director Boling recalled that FP&L representatives have stated at meetings that their <br />poles also accommodate cable TV and telephone lines. They have also stated that the <br />underground lines' cost factor is very high. <br />16 <br />September 8, 1997 <br />
