EPC, Mr. Carlson Page 4 March 29, 1994 • 3. The overstory trees proposed along Jackson Road and Freeport Avenue consist of one species. Consideration should be given to including another species for diversity protecting against possible disease. 4. The area east of Jackson Road and south of Freeport Avenue is one example where there are existing trees that should be incorporated into the plan. This should be reflected as existing trees along with retaining walls to protect those areas. 5. Additional conifers should be provided along Jackson Road immediately west of Cub Foods to screen the proposed loading area. In addition, berming should also be included to provide additional screening measures. SHEET L2.2 1. The landscaping theme that is proposed at other entrance points into the shopping center should also be included at the entrance drive off of Jackson Road, behind the Target store. • 2. Additional pine trees should be included along the west side of the Target store to provide screening of the proposed service area. Consideration should be given to oversizing these pine trees since they will be planted on the slope of the ponding area and will need to increased in size to provide immediate screening measures. 3. At the northeast corner of the Target store, there is a large sidewalk area that could include a planter similar to those proposed in front of Cub Foods. Consideration should be given to including a planter with landscaping that will break up this large sidewalk area. 4. The landscape plan will need to be revised at the south end of the site to coincide with the proposed retaining wall. SHEET L2.3 1. There appears the opportunity to provide a few more conifers along Freeport Avenue to provide some landscaping interest throughout the year. • 2. Staff is assuming shrubs proposed for all landscaped islands are hardy enough to withstand snow pack during the winter and be salt tolerant. pcepccc.doc
