Liz Gillick, landscape architect, gave a comprehensive opinion on trees and national <br />standards for safety factors. She felt that each site should be considered separately. <br />Chairman Eggert suggested staying with our old setbacks and specific problems <br />could be addressed through site planning, such as historical trees. <br />Chairman Eggert read the following question: <br />1. BASED UPON REVIEW OF THE EXISTING LDRS & PENDING ORDINANCE <br />AND WORKSHOP DISCUSSION, DOES THE BOARD WISH TO DIRECT STAFF <br />AT THIS TIME TO DELETE, MODIFY, OR ADD ANY PROVISIONS TO THE <br />PENDING ORDINANCE? <br />Chairman Eggert summarized the changes she had noted during the discussion and <br />asked if there were any other comments or questions. <br />Prompted by Commissioner Adams' question, there was discussion as to whether or <br />not there was enough of the replacement 36" hedge material in the market. Consensus of <br />landscapers was that it depends on how much needed to be replaced, which hinged on the <br />initial quality and planting. <br />There was also a brief discussion about whether or not fences are allowed on SR -60 <br />corridor plan, and Director Boling explained that fences are allowed but plants are required <br />on each side of the fence. <br />There was also discussion about landscaping bond allowances for hardships in <br />commercial or multifamily developments. There was consensus to leave the landscaping <br />requirements to be completed at the time of C.O. <br />Gene Waddell spoke in favor of berms along roadways in front of commercial and <br />industrial buildings. <br />The following items were noted by staff in attendance and were published on the <br />Implementation Agenda: <br />17 <br />September 8, 1997 <br />BOOK 1-042 PAGE l"Id <br />
