MEMORANDUM --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: November 4, 1987 To: Arden Hills Council From: Ervin A, Oelke, Landscape Inspector Re: Initial Landscape Inspection - Northpark Business Center, Building B, 1275 Grey Fox Road --------------------------------------------------------------------------- An initial inspection of the landscape was made on October 10 at 1275 Grey Fox Road, Northpark Business Center, Building B. The major portion of the landscape material was of good quality and planted according to the landscape plan. The landscape was well maintained and looked attractive. A few changes were made in the landscape plantings. One change was on the southwest corner of the building, since the building design was changed to a square corner instead of a diagonal one. The change is shown with an . over-lay on the landscape plan. The change resulted in 8 more plant materials, compared to the original design. The change is appropriate and attractive. The other changes were a substitution of 2 Linden trees for 2 of the Sugar Maple trees on the east side of the building, a substitution of a Marshall Ash tree for a Sugar Maple tree on the north perimeter, and 3 smaller (6-7 ft. ) Pine trees for the larger (10 ft.) ones; 2 on the east and 1 on the south side of the building. Six of the plantings were dead and need to be replaced. The 6 plantings are noted in red on the landscape plan. On the south side of the building One Dwarf Korean Lilac shrub, two Greenspire Linden trees and one Marshall Ash tree were dead. One Pine on the northwest corner and one on the east side of the building were dead. One Sugar Maple on the southeast side of the building was weak and may not survive the winter. It is shown in green with a read circle on the landscape plan. I recommend the acceptance of the landscaping, after replacement of the dead plant material. - .
