| 10/06/2006 | JOE LINVILLE | LANDSCAPE | REVIEW | Denied | The Landscape Section does not recommend approval at this time. 1) Note 2 on the tentative plat under Hillside Development Zone is incorrect. Although the area of grading may not be restricted, the Hillside Site Improvement Standard DS 9-04.0, as well as, other provisions of the HDZ LUC sections are still applicable. 2) Identify any improvements proposed for the Houghton Road right-of-way area on the landscape plans and show areas where existing vegetation is to be preserved. 3) Revise the references to "gateway route" on the tentative plat. Neither street is considered a gateway route. 4) Add the following note to the landscape plans. Within the 30' scenic route buffer area, indigenous plant material is to remain. If any disturbance occurs during construction or prior to permit application, the buffer area is to be revegetated with native plants indigenous to the site and the area reconstructed to look as natural as possible. DS 2-06.7.1.B 5) Revise SCZ note 1 on sheet 1 of the tentative plat if necessary to correct the proposed width of the natural area along Houghton Road. 6) Add the following notes to the landscape plans: "Any landscape area visible from the Scenic Corridor Zone is to be landscaped using native plant material indigenous to the site or plants selected from the Drought Tolerant Plant List", DS 9-06.0.
