Memo to Planning Commission Page 3 May 23, 1995 • on this formula, the proposed development would be required to have 19 trees. This total number is then broken into three classifications; overstory, ornamental, and conifer trees. Staff would recommend that the proposed plan be modified to be in conformance with the City's landscaping requirements. 2. The proposed landscaping at the entrance drive off of Freeport Avenue should be properly located and sized to prevent the obstruction of visibility of vehicles both entering and leaving the site. 3. The proposed landscaping plan should be designed with consideration given to the adjoining projects' plans that have been approved. 4. As part of previous three plans that have been approved along Highway 169, some medium size shrubs and ornamental trees have been included along the Highway 169 frontage. This same type of landscaping improvement should also be included on the proposed development. • 5. All disturbed areas shall be sodded and irrigated as set forth in the PUD requirements. D. Pedestrian Circulation 1. The proposed plans include a 6 foot wide sidewalk extending to sidewalk along Freeport Avenue. This improvement is consistent with other developments in Elk Park Center which encourages pedestrian traffic throughout the project. E. Refuse Collection 1. The enclosure shall be designed with a masonry material that will complement the building. 2. The location of the trash enclosure should be positioned on the site to allow easy accessibility and minimize its visual appearance from Highway 169. 3. It is also recommended that the enclosure itself be designed to provide easy accessibility for delivering refuse to the enclosure. This is often accomplished by providing an entrance that can be IIIused without having to open the enclosure's gates. s:planning:pc:cu95-8
