1 , 4 O December 5, 1983 --2- The screening hy planting does n.ot appear to l�e adequate in several areas. The plan calls f.or eleven fir tre�s along �he nor_thern boundary. There are six healthy firs a:d five in less than healthy condition providing limited screening. The plan also calls for �even ash trees at the northeast corner of the sitP. There are two ash �rees, neither of which appear to be healthy� and neither of which Provide significant screening. The plan also proposea ivy to be plac�d on all fencing. The only area where ivy was evident was in the no rtheast corner of 'the site. There are several instances where the location of structures and mate rials on the site do not comply with the plan. These p roblem areas also appeared in a letter from Mr. Irv Margolis to Howard Dahlgren, date� Auqust 27, 1977, which I have attached. The problem areas includ� e�.=l�layee parkinc� along the Larpenteur Avenue fence, the location of hoop houses, the location of topsai� �r.d �andscape materials, and the si.ze of the equipment storage area. The employee parking still remains along the Larpenteur Avenue fence� The hoap houses are located on the west central portion of the site. The p].an shows them. in the northwest corner of the site. There is a large stockpile of topsoil in the northwest corner of the site, and woodchips are being stored in the southeast. portion of the site. 'I7ie plan calls for topsoil and lanscaping mate rial to be located in the southwest portion of the site. �ia final areas of concern are the stockade fence providing screening of the equipment storage area and a collection of machinery p arts in the southwest corn er of the site. The stockade fence has been held up 2 feet from the ground, giving the fence a s�range appearance, and partially limitin g its screening ��ility. A semi-trailer and miscellaneous ma.chinery p arts are being stored in the southwest corner of the site. This is contrary to the plan, and p resents an unattractive appearance at th� entrance to the site. I have attached � plan dated August 23, 1977 showing p roposed locations of structures and materials. The map also shows the current location of the hoop houses and field office. ? have also attached an October 2, 1977 revision to the August 23, 1977 plan showing the stockade fence. • Attachments
