Step 4 8 ZONING AND LAND USE REGULATIONS § 30-757 Action Determine total caliper inches of significant trees to be removed/ harmed on property. Determine percent of significant tree caliper inches to be removed/ harmed on property by dividing the total caliper inches of signif- icant trees to be removed by the total caliper inches of significant trees originally on the property. Using the tree replacement ta- ble, identify the total caliper inches of replacement trees re- quired for the previously deter- mined percent of removal and tree density. Prepare a tree preservation and replacement plan. Show struc- tures, existing significant trees, significant trees to be removed, significant trees to be preserved, the proposed location of replace- ment trees and also provide a table or schedule, identifying all trees by size, number, type/spe- cies. Provide estimated replace- ment cost for the plan from a reputable nursery, landscape ar- chitect or other knowledgeable person. Submit tree preservation and re- placement plan to the city staff. Review of plan by city staff. Plan is reviewed and acted upon by the city council. Upon approval by the city coun- cil, implement plan.

At 49 percent removal and at high density, 0.5 caliper inches of replacement trees (measured 12 inches fi~om ground) must be planted for every I inch of significant tree caliper inches removed. 0.5 m.ultiplied by 2,714 total caliper inches removed equals 1,358 total caliper inches of replacement trees required to be planted. % 16 8 11 8 10 15 15 17 100 Number 80--3" red maples = 240~ 40---1.75" pagoda dogwood = 70" 50--1.5~ ironwood = 75" 40--2" black walnut = 80" 50--4" black spruce (8' high) = 200" 75---3~ redmond linden = 225" 75--3~ little leaf linden = 225~ 81--3" red maple -- 243" 491 1,358" total to be replaced * Provide estimated cost for replacement plan from a reputable nursery, landscape architect or ~ther knowledgeable person. Provide city staff with 2 copies of the tree replacement plan. Be available to explain plan/answer questions. Appear at city council meeting to explain plan or answer questions.
