V4 06 Response to Board Engineers Review 2 1 26 2023

6 PETRY RESPONSE: The details have now been added to the plans. (See Sheet SP-20 and L2.0 and A2.1 of KDA Architectural plans). C. LANDSCAPING COMMENTS 1. In accordance with Section 25-27.8g, the Applicant is to provide 149 major trees and 43 major or minor trees for a total of 192 replacement trees. Currently, the Applicant has provided 86 major trees and 110 minor trees, which leaves a deficit of 63 major trees, even though the total quantity of trees has been provided. This should be discussed with the Board. PETRY RESPONSE: A revised Tree Removal and Replacement plan is included in this submittal. The revised Tree Removal Plan calls for 110 major trees and 39 minor trees to be removed. Additionally, the landscaping plan has been revised to include 86 major and 143 minor. Testimony will be provided on the deficit in major trees. (Including those within the future parking areas, which shall not be removed until the parking is constructed.) 2. Revise the plans to graphically depict and specifically label the location for tree protection fencing in accordance with Section 25-27.9. PETRY RESPONSE: The Tree Removal Plan has been revised to indicate the trees along the Pleasant Valley Way frontage that are to be protected. Any additional tree protection will be provided at the direction of the Township Forester, and a note to this effect has been added to the plans (See Sheet TR-1). 3. Our office has concerns regarding the accuracy of the provided tree inventory as some of the listed trees are vines; however, the size indicates a semi-mature tree and not a size a vine would be. PETRY RESPONSE: The tree removal plan has been updated to reflect the correct species. We have walked the site with the Township Forester and incorporated his comments.
