During the adoption of the ordinance amending tree <br />3 <br />preservation and tree replacement, the City Council indicated an interest in broadening this <br />4 <br />section to allow trees on private property adjacent a development site. <br />5 <br />§1011.04.J.8.a&b – Replacement Tree Locations: <br />The following are the requirements of <br />6 <br />J.Replacement Tree Locations. Required replacement trees shall be planted on the site being <br />7 <br />developed unless doing so is deemed to be impractical (i.e., due to lack of space), <br />8 <br />inappropriate (available planting areas are not ideal for new plantings or would do little to <br />9 <br />enhance the site), or counterproductive to a property’s intent (i.e., would entail too much <br />10 <br />screening for a retail business) as determined by the City Forester or other degreed forester <br />11 <br />or certified arborist as assigned by the Community Development Department. When such a <br />12 <br />determination is made, the applicant shall comply with replacement requirements in one of <br />13 <br />two ways: <br />14 <br />a.As directed by the City, required replacement trees may be located on public boulevards <br />15 <br />or other public lands throughout the City if such lands are deemed to be available with <br />16 <br />priority given to locations within or near the affected area; or <br />17 <br />b.The City may accept a cash-in-lieu payment in accordance with the required fee listed in <br />18 <br />the City Fee Schedule. In no instance shall cash-in-lieu of payment exceed 10% of the <br />19 <br />Fair Market Value of the development site. <br />20 <br />PROJ0017_RPCA_060116TreePres <br />Page 1 of 3 <br /> <br />
