West:
Right-of-way of Interstate 95, and farther west, single-family residential
homes in unincorporated Palm Beach County classified Low Residential
(LR-2) and zoned Residential, Single-Family (RS).
Site: The subject property is a 3.87-acre parcel located on the west side of Sea crest Boulevard,
approximately one-half mile south of Hypoluxo Road, with 161 feet of frontage on Seacrest
Boulevard, and 857 feet of depth. The subject parcel is located between Pine Point Villas (in
the City) and Palm Beach Memorial Park Cemetery (in the unincorporated County), and
was originally part of the Palm Beach Memorial Park Cemetery, slated as a future
expansion area of the cemetery. The applicant's project description states that a recent
sale of the Memorial Park subdivided this unused parcel from the original parcel. The
property owner has submitted a notarized Affidavit which states that the subject property
"has never been used for burial sites, had never contracted to sell plots for burial, nor used
for crematory purposes".
Accompanying this request for new site plan approval are concurrent requests for voluntary
annexation of the subject property, to amend the Future Land Use Map of the
Comprehensive Plan to classify the annexed land as "High Density Residential" and to
rezone this property to Multi-family Residential (R-3). The proposed zoning would provide
for the construction of 40 townhouse units (condominium-style ownership) with a gross
density of 10.34 dwelling units per acre.
BACKGROUND
Proposal: The applicant is requesting new site plan approval for the proposed Miraflor at Boynton
Beach project consisting of a total of 40 townhouse units within five (5) structures, each
two (2) stories, and containing eight (8) townhouse units. Townhouses are permitted uses
in the Multi-family Residential (RM) zoning district. The maximum density allowed by the
High Density Residential (HDR) land use classification is 10.8 dwelling units per acre, which
would allow the developer a maximum of 41 units based on a 3.87-acre site. A total of 40
units are proposed at a lesser density of 10.34 dwelling units per acre. The applicant
indicates the project is to be marketed as affordable family housing for the workforce. The
project plans include construction in one (1) phase, and completion by October, 2008.
Approval of the requested new site plan is contingent upon approval of the concurrent
requests for annexation, land use amendment, and rezoning of the subject property.

ANALYSIS
Concurrency:
Traffic: A traffic statement was sent to the Palm Beach County Traffic Division for concurrency
review in order to ensure an adequate level of service. The Palm Beach County Traffic
Division has determined that the proposed residential project meets the Traffic
Performance Standards of Palm Beach County. No building permits are to be issued by the
city, after the 2009 build-out date. The County traffic concurrency approval is subject to
the Project Aggregation Rules set forth in the Traffic Performance Standards Ordinance.
School: The School District of Palm Beach County has reviewed the application and has determined
that adequate capacity exists to accommodate the projected resident population.
Drainage: Conceptual drainage information was provided for the City's review. The Engineering
Division has found the conceptual information to be adequate and is recommending that
the review of specific drainage solutions be deferred until time of permit review. All South
Florida Water Management District permits and other drainage related permits must be
submitted at time of building permit (see Exhibit "c" - Conditions of Approval).
Police/Fire: Staff reviewed the site plan and determined that current staffing levels would be sufficient
to meet the expected demand for services.
Site Design:
Access:
The project proposes one (1) point of ingress / egress to the subject site from North
Seacrest Boulevard. The site plan (sheet SP-1) shows that this point of access would be
25 feet in width.
Circulation: The two-way street internal to the development would be approximately 725 feet in length
with a circular drive in front of Building 5 to provide primary vehicular circulation. Two (2)
side streets, each approximately 170 feet in length provide access to Buildings 1 through 4.
Streets:
The streets internal to the proposed development would be privately owned and
maintained by the Homeowners Association. According to the site plan details, the private
streets would include 24 feet of asphalt and a combination of gO-degree parking stalls 18.5
feet in length or driveways 20 feet in length. Additionally, continuous four (4) foot wide
sidewalks would be placed along each street for pedestrian circulation, connecting parking
areas, buildings, and recreation areas. The streets, parking spaces, driveways, and
sidewalks would all be common areas; only the residential units would be individually
owned. Common areas would be owned and maintained by the Homeowner's Association.
Although the proposed streets are private, the streets are for the use of residents and
service providers alike. Large garbage trucks will be required to maneuver and circulate
throughout the proposed development. Two (2) dumpsters would be provided for solid
waste collection. The dumpsters would be screened with a six (6) foot wall and solid gate
per City requirements.
Staff Report - Miraflor (NWSP 06-027)
Memorandum No PZ 06-203

The proposed plans have been reviewed by the Engineering Division for compliance with
City standards, including internal street width, utilities within those streets, and safe sight
distances. The Engineering Division has determined that the street width is acceptable and
the plan is in compliance with the City's requirements.
Parking:
The project proposes a total of 40 townhouse units, each with 3 bedrooms and a one car
garage. Three (3) bedroom dwelling units require two (2) parking spaces per unit with a
minimum size of 9.5 feet by 18.5 feet, for a total of 80 parking spaces required on site.
The plans show that the development would have a total of 86 parking spaces (6 extra
parking spaces), consisting of 40 garage spaces, 16 driveway spaces, and 30 surface
parking spaces, including two (2) spaces designated for handicapped use.
The floor plan (sheet A-1.0) shows that all 40 units (Models A and B) would have a one
(l)-car garage dimensioned 11 feet in width and 20 feet in depth. The 16 driveway spaces
that count toward required parking are 20 feet in length and are located in front of each
unit within Buildings 2 and 4. All other driveway spaces located in front of each unit within
Buildings 1, 3, and 5 are of insufficient length (16 feet) to accommodate a required space.
The remaining 30 surface parking spaces would be distributed throughout the project, and
each unit would have a row of parking spaces in close proximity to their building. The 90-
degree parking stalls, excluding the handicap spaces, would be dimensioned g and one-
half feet (9.5') in width and 18 and one-half feet (18.5') in length and include wheelstops.
All proposed parking stalls, including the size and location of the handicap space, were
reviewed and approved by both the Engineering Division and Building Division. In addition,
all necessary traffic control signage and pavement markings will be provided to clearly
delineate areas on site and direction of circulation.
Landscape: According to the site plan tabular data (sheet SP-1), the proposed pervious area would
total 1.80 acres or 47% of the site. The proposed landscaping exceeds minimum code
requirements and provides a complimentary mix of canopy and palm trees such as Live
Oak, Mahagony, Silver Buttonwood, Glaucous Cassia, and Sabal Palm. All trees would be
the required minimum of 12 feet in height at time of planting. All areas located outside the
building footprint would be under the control of the Homeowners' Association to ensure
proper maintenance of the common landscaped areas.
The landscape code requires that 50% or more ofthe plant material be native species. The
plant list (sheet L-1) indicates the landscape plan would provide a total of 138 canopy
trees, of which 100 (or 72.5%) would be native species. The plant list indicates that 83 (or
92.2%) of the gO palm trees would be native species. Also, the landscape plan indicates a
total of 2,552 shrubs, of which 1,577 (or 61.8%) would be native. The landscape plan
notes indicate that non-potable well water will be used as the source of irrigation for the
project.
The site plan (sheet SP1 of 2) shows that perimeter landscape buffers five (5) feet in width
are proposed along the north, south, and west property lines. The landscape plan (sheet
L-1) shows that a row of Viburnum hedges along with Live Oak, Mahogany, and Sabal Palm
trees are proposed within the north (side) landscape buffer. The perimeter property line
adjacent to the rear of Building 5 would also include a mix of Mahogany and Live Oak

Memorandum No PZ 06-203
Page 5
trees, and relocated Royal Palms and Queen Palms. The south (side) landscape buffer
would contain a row of Silver Buttonwood hedges, and a mix of Glaucous Cassia, and Silver
Buttonwood trees. The west (rear) landscape buffer would contain Glaucous Cassia, Silver
Buttonwood and Areca Palm trees, and Jamaica Caper hedges.
The east landscape buffer would be seven and one-half (7.5) feet in width and contain
more landscape material than the other buffers because it is adjacent to the right-of-way
of Sea crest Boulevard. This buffer would be placed along the eastern edge of the dry
detention area, rather than along the east property line, due to an existing ten (10) foot
utility easement with overhead power lines. Plantings in the east landscape buffer would
include the following: Silver Buttonwood and Glaucous Cassia trees, Thyralis, Fire Bush,
and Crepe Myrtle shrubs, Viburnum hedge, and seasonal annuals. City signature trees
(Purple Glory Bush) would be planted on each side of the access drive. These signature
trees would require six (6) feet of clear trunk when installed within the safe-sight triangle,
as noted on the landscape plan. The front of each unit would have Live Oak and
Mahogany trees, with a mix of colorful shrubs. Rear patio areas would include a mix of
Sabal Palms and Crepe Myrtle. The air conditioners for each unit would be located on the
ground to the rear of each unit and screened with Silver Buttonwood hedges. Parking
spaces include large landscaped terminal islands (approximately 10 to 25 feet in width by
18 feet in depth), and dumpster locations which are screened with additional landscaping.
The landscape plan notes indicate that non-potable water will be used as the source of
irrigation for the project.
According to the landscape plan, a six (6) foot concrete panel buffer wall would be placed
along the northern perimeter of the subject property as well as a portion of the west
property line (to the I-95 sound wall). An existing fence and 8-foot ficus hedge exist on
the adjacent property to the south (Pine Point Villas). The perimeter wall detail (sheet SP-
2) indicates the wall would have decorative columns with a stucco finish to match the
building colors (White Wheat and White Olive). Creeping Fig is proposed to be planted on
the outside of the buffer wall.
The development includes some on-site recreation and a community meeting place for the
residents. A fenced tot-lot and gazebo are proposed near the southwest corner of the site.
Per the details (sheet SP-2), the gazebo would be 14 feet in height and include an interior
table. The tot-lot area would include landscaping, lighting, bonded rubber mulch, a bike
rack, and benches, and be enclosed by a four (4) foot decorative railed fence and gate.
The tot lot area and gazebo would be surrounded by Pink Trumpet and Silver Buttonwood
trees and a continuous hedge. Other open space areas include two (2) sloped dry
detention areas which total 0.55 acre.
Buildings: The 40 dwelling units are proposed within five (5) separate buildings on the 3.87-acre site.
The floor plans for each unit include three (3) bedrooms, three (3) bathrooms, and a one
(1) car garage. Each of the five (5) buildings would contain varying unit types (models A-
B). According to the floor plans (sheets A-1.0, A-1.1, A-2.0, A-2.1), the smallest unit
(model B) would be 1,471 square feet of air-conditioned area and the largest unit (model
A) would be 1,501 square feet of air conditioned area. Each building would contain two
(2) Model A units and six (6) Model B units. The proposed townhomes are condominium-
Staff Report - Miraflor (NWSP 06-027)
Memorandum No PZ 06-203
Page 6
style ownership, with all areas other than the individually-owned unit considered to be
common areas.
Height: The maximum height of buildings in the RM zoning district is 45 feet, and all proposed
structures comply. Sheet A-3 indicates each proposed two (2)-story townhouse building
would be 24 feet - eight (8) inches measured at the mean roof height, and 29 feet -
eleven (11) inches measured at the highest point of the roof. The one-story gazebo
elevation on sheet SP-2 indicates a peak height of 14 feet - one (1) inch.
Setbacks: The RM zoning district has the following minimum building setback requirements: front
(east property line) - 40 feet, rear (west property line) - 40 feet, and side (north and
south property lines) - 20 feet. The location of each building complies with the minimum
setback requirements as shown on the site plan (sheet SP-1). Staff notes that the setback
table shown on sheet SP-1 regulates the project's minimum required building setbacks.
These building setbacks mirror the adjacent multi-family development to the south (Pine
Point Villas) which is also zoned R-3. The perimeter setbacks are intended to
accommodate a buffer wall, required buffer landscaping, and outdoor air conditioning
equipment, as well as to provide some common area for the enjoyment of the respective
residents.
Patios: A concrete patio (slab only) approximately five (5) feet by eight (8) feet would be located
to the rear of each unit. In addition, each unit would have a covered entry of 40 square
feet. The site plan (sheet SP-1) notes that the homeowners' association will not allow any
patios or porches to be enlarged, enclosed, or screened in.
Design: The proposed buildings resemble a Neo-Mediterranean design with Spanish "s" tile roof.
The majority of exterior walls of the buildings would have a smooth stucco finish with
multiple color options. All buildings would be earth-tone colors and include Porter paints
named Brush Green (for doors and shutters), Dusty Apricot (for recessed building walls),
White Wheat (for building walls), and White Olive (for building trim). The neutral color
palette proposed will be harmonious with surrounding developments. All buildings would
be architecturally enhanced with balconets having decorative aluminum railings,
picturesque fenestration with windows of varying sizes and shapes, recessed entries, and
porticos. All accent features such as entry doors, stucco walls, clay roof tiles, arched
entries, and stucco walls present a higher quality of architectural design and materials.
lighting: The plans propose freestanding outdoor lighting fixtures. The photometric plan (sheet
Photo) indicates a total of 17 freestanding lights are proposed throughout the
development. The light details submitted separately from the plans show that the round
tapered light pole would be 20 feet in height. The luminaire located at the top of the light
pole would be shielded and directed away from adjacent properties. The color of the pole
and light fixture is undetermined at this time, and would be required to be noted on plans
at time of permitting (see Exhibit "c" - Conditions of Approval). The elevations (sheet A-3)
indicate lights shall also be provided on each side of the garage entry, at each front entry,
and all rear patios.
Signage: The site plan (sheet SP-1) shows that a monument sign would be located on the north side
of the entry to the development and set back ten (10) feet from the east property line

Memorandum No PZ 06-203
Page 7
adjacent to North Sea crest Boulevard. Sign details are provided (sheet DT-1) which
indicate sign dimensions, height, sign face area, materials, and color. The sign details
indicate a sign height of less than six (6) feet, sign face of 19 square feet, and a sign
setback of 10 feet is proposed, in compliance with the City requirements.
Public Art: The applicant is required to demonstrate compliance with the newly adopted requirement
for developments to provide public art work (see Exhibit "c" - Conditions of Approval).
The exact location of the proposed artwork is undetermined at this time. The artwork will
enhance the ambiance of the proposed development. Ultimate review and approval of the
artist and type of artwork is still pending by the Arts Commission.

Cassia in the 5-ft. landscape buffer along the south property line) far enough back from drive aisles to
minimize the potential for vertical conflicts with high-profile vehicles.
PUBLIC WORKS - TRAFFIC
5. Provide a traffic analysis and notice of concurrency (Traffic Performance Standards Review) from
Palm Beach County Traffic Engineering.
6. On the Site and Civil plans, show and identify all necessary traffic control devices such as stop bars,
stop signs, double yellow lane separators striping, directional arrows and "Do Not Enter" signage, etc.

8. Provide a minimum outside turning radius of 55 ft. to allow turning movements for Solid Waste (and
Fire/Rescue) inside the proposed community. Using AutoTurn (or similar), show on the plans that
the required turning movements are provided. Particular attention should be given to the
entryways/gates, interior intersections, and turn-arounds, to insure ingress and egress for Solid
Waste and Fire/Rescue.
ENGINEERING
9. All comments requiring changes and/or corrections to the plans shall be reflected on all appropriate
sheets.
10. Please note that changes or reVISions to these plans may generate additional comments.
Acceptance of these plans during the Technical Advisory Review Team (TART) process does not
ensure that additional comments may not be generated by the Commission and at permit review.
11. Provide written and graphic scales on all sheets. The scale should match between all sheets
depicting the site (LDR, Chapter 4, Section 7.B.1, 7.C.1, and 7.F.1.)
12. Provide a photometrics plan showing that the lighting design provides a minimum average light level
of one foot-candle. Specify that the light poles shall withstand a 140 MPH wind load (LDR, Chapter
23, Article II, Section A.1.a and Florida Building Code). Provide a note that the fixtures shall be
operated by photoelectrical control and are to remain on until 2:00 a.m. (LDR, Chapter 23, Article II,
Section A.1.a.) Include pole wind loading, and pole details in conformance with the LDR, Chapter 6,
Article IV, Section 11, Chapter 23, Article I, Section 5.B.7 and Chapter 23, Article II, Section A on the
Lighting Plan. (It is much easier to identify and correct any deficiencies now than while you are
waiting on a permit!)
13. Provide an engineer's certification on the Drainage Plan as specified in LDR, Chapter 4, Section
7.F.2.
14. Correct Note #9 on Sheet SP-1 to correctly reference the EnGineerinG DesiGn Handbook &

20. Please provide a timeline that clearly illustrates when water and sewer services will be required to
serve the proposed project. Your starting date for the timeline should be the date of City Commission
approval. Also provide milestone dates for permit application, the start of construction, and the setting
of the first water meter. This timeline will be used to determine the adequacy of water and
wastewater treatment capacity for your project upon the project's completion, so please be as
accurate as possible.
21. All utility easements and utility lines shall be shown on the site plan and landscape plans (as well as
the Water and Sewer Plans) so that we may determine which appurtenances, trees or shrubbery may
interfere with utilities. In general, palm trees will be the only tree species allowed within utility
easements. Canopy trees may be planted outside of the easement so that roots and branches will
not impact those utilities within the easement in the foreseeable future. The LDR, Chapter 7.5,
Article I, Section 18.1 gives public utilities the authority to remove any trees that may interfere with
utility services, either in utility easements or public rights-of-way.
22. Palm Beach County Health Department permits will be required for the water and sewer systems
serving this project (CODE, Section 26-12).
23. Fire flow calculations will be required demonstrating the City Code requirement of 1,500 g.p.m. with
20 p.s.i. residual pressure (LDR, Chapter 6, Article IV, Section 16), or the requirement imposed by
insurance underwriters, whichever is greater (CODE, Section 26-16(b)).
24. The CODE, Section 26-34(E) requires that a capacity reservation fee be paid for this project either
upon the request for the Department's signature on the Health Department application forms or within
seven (7) days of site plan approval, whichever occurs first. This fee will be determined based upon
final meter size, or expected demand.
25. Water and sewer lines to be owned and operated by the City shall be included within utility
easements. Please show all proposed easements on the engineering drawings, using a minimum
width of 12 feet. The easements shall be dedicated via separate instrument to the City as stated in
CODE Sec. 26-33(a).
26. This office will not require surety for installation of the water and sewer utilities, on condition that the
systems be fully completed, and given to the City Utilities Department before the first permanent
meter is set. Note that setting of a permanent water meter is a prerequisite to obtaining the
Certificate of Occupancy.
27. A building permit for this project shall not be issued until this Department has approved the plans for
the water and/or sewer improvements required to service this project, in accordance with the CODE,
Section 26-15.
28. PVC material not permitted on the City's water system. All lines shall be DIP.
29. Appropriate backflow preventer(s) will be required on the domestic water service to the building, and
the fire sprinkler line if there is one, in accordance with the CODE, Section 26-207.
30. Provide a minimum of 10-ft. separation between water main, sanitary sewer, and storm sewer lines.
Please note that City of Boynton Beach separation standards are more stringent then the FDEP
standards.

31. The LDR, Chapter 3, Article IV, Section 3(P) requires a statement be included that utilities are
available and will be provided by all other appropriate agencies. This statement is lacking on the
submitted plans.
32. If allowed, the proposed lift station and pumping system shall be private, with the maintenance
responsibility belonging to the developer. Force main will be dedicated to, and will become the
maintenance responsibility of, the City of Boynton Beach. Further discussions will be required to
determine how the sanitary sewer for the site will be addressed.
33. The "header" configuration for sanitary sewer laterals is not acceptable. Extend sanitary sewer main
north and place a terminal manhole on each of the three north-south secondary roadways (extend
sanitary sewer main west from the manhole at the southeast corner of Building One and add a
terminal manhole at the west edge of Building One.) Service laterals shall then tie into the sanitary
main from each unit. Alternately sanitary waste may be handled via plumbing lines with a single
lateral from each building into the sanitary main in the primary east-west roadway.
34. The proposed dead-end water main (approximately 675-ft.) will not be permitted. Domestic demands
will not adequately keep the system from becoming stagnant. In order to minimize this, extend the
water main west and loop around the west end of Building 1, bringing the water main east and then
south between Buildings 4 and 5, with a final tie-in to the water main in the primary east-west
roadway.
35. Meter banks and/or individual meters will not be allowed for these condo ownership units. Each
building shall have one master meter. The owner may sub-meter individual units. Sub-meters will be
the responsibility of the POA.
36. Utility construction details will not be reviewed for construction acceptability at this time. All utility
construction details shall be in accordance with the Utilities Department's "Utilities Engineering
Design Handbook and Construction Standards" manual (including any updates) and will be
reviewed at the time of construction permit application.

Here are my comments in response to your memos of 8/21/06 regarding the following site plans now being proposed:
Bru's Room addition - Not a significant increase. Existing treatment capacity and infrastructure will meet adopted levels
of service for water and sewer.
Boynton Village SMU- Building M-Existing treatment capacity and infrastructure improvements proposed by the
developer will meet adopted levels of service for water and sewer.
Miraflor - Existing treatment capacity and infrastructure improvements proposed by the developer will meet adopted levels

A sense of COMMUNITY...lt Starts in Parks
What transforms a crowd into a community? Parks provide that chance. Boynton Beach's parks are
where lifetime friendships are formed, where generations can come together, where people discover
what they have in common. It starts in parks.

At the technical advisory review team (TART) meeting, provide written responses to all staffs
comments and questions. Submit 12 sets of revised plans. Each set should be folded and stapled.
At the technical advisory review team meeting, also provide a full set of reduced drawings, sized
8Y2 inches by 11 inches of each plan. Save each plan (pdt) to a compact disk and submit that to
staff as well.
Staff considers these plans to be at the final stage of site plan review, the last stage prior to permit
review. As such, all comments need to be addressed and shown on the plans prior to the TART
meeting.
Approval of this project is contingent upon the approval of the accompanying requests for
annexation (ANEX 06-009), and land use amendment / rezoning (LUAR 06-022).
It is the applicant's responsibility to ensure that the new site plan is publicly advertised in
accordance with Ordinance 04-007.
The traffic impact study submitted was forwarded by this office on August 18th to PBC Traffic
Engineering and is still pending their review and approval. The analysis must approved by the
Palm Beach County Traffic Division for concurrency purposes prior to the issuance of any
building permits for this project.
The project must obtain approval from the School District of Palm Beach County regarding
school concurrency (on the official form) prior to the issuance of a building permit.

provided? Is location of common property line creating nonconforming structures in PBC?
Indicate the locations of all graves (including unmarked graves) within 25 feet of common
property line, and explain in writing how these graves will be protected from the impacts of
construction and development on the subject property.
The existing tree locations noted on site plan do not match the locations of existing trees on the
survey and tree survey. All plans are required to match and all on site materials are required to be
relocated or mitigated. (Survey does not show #18, site plan does not match surveyor tree
survey).
Verify via letter to FDOT officials the possibility of extending the I-95 sound wall to the northern
property line since the property will be developed for residential.
A concrete apronlcul-de-sac for the circulation of cemetery vehicles utilizing the maintenance
building encroaches 15-20 feet onto the subject property. The southern half of this cul-de-sac
(that encroaches) will be removed to allow the proposed development, leaving a stub street/drive
with no place for these vehicles to turn around. Explain how this situation will be improved.

eligible to count as spaces. Parallel parking spaces do not meet minimum length. Parking is
deficient on site plan and tabular for parking should be revised.
Revise site plan tabular data to remove Palm Beach County land use designation and zoning
district. Revise land use designation to High Density Residential (HDR - max of 10.8 du/ac) and
zoning district to R-3. Revise proposed use to Multi-family Residential Townhomes
(condominium style ownership), and round up property size in sf to 168,650.
Revise tabular data for R-3 to include minimum required and what is actually proposed.
Note on site plan that all areas other than the individually owned residential units are to be

review. As such, all comments need to be addressed and shown on the plans prior to the TART
meeting.
Approval of this project is contingent upon the approval of the accompanying requests for
annexation (ANEX 06-009), and land use amendment / rezoning (LUAR 06-022).
It is the applicant's responsibility to ensure that the new site plan is publicly advertised in
accordance with Ordinance 04-007.
The traffic impact study submitted was forwarded by this office on August 18th to PBC Traffic
Engineering and is still pending their review and approval. The analysis must approved by the
Palm Beach County Traffic Division for concurrency purposes prior to the issuance of any
building permits for this project.

Revise application (II.5) to correct breakdown: e thru g = h. Amount for h was omitted.
Revise application (II.5) to correct breakdown: d + h = i (i should be 100%). Acreage of d + h
should add up to 3.87 acres.
Revise application (II.6) to correct floor area: a should be total square footage proposed (70,400)
and h should be a total of a thru g.
Revise application (II.8) to correct gross density of dwelling units per acre proposed (not
maximum allowed).
Revise application (I1.9) to match height noted on proposed elevations (measured from mid-point
ofrooffor gable or hip roofs).
Revise application (ILlO.a.) to provide the calculation (formula) for required parking (2 and 3

utility easements. Canopy trees may be planted outside of the easement so
that roots and branches will not impact those utilities within the easement in
the foreseeable future. The LDR, Chapter 7.5, Article I, Section 18.1 gives
public utilities the authority to remove any trees that may interfere with utility
services, either III utility easements or public rights-of-way. Utility

utility easements. Canopy trees may be planted outside of the easement so
that roots and branches will not impact those utilities within the easement in
the foreseeable future. The LDR, Chapter 7.5, Article I, Section 18.1 gives
public utilities the authority to remove any trees that may interfere with utility
servIces, either ill utility easements or public rights-of-way. Utility
