G-UII~LINES: 1.1 Maintain viable riparian corridors along all drainage corridors proposed to remain as open channels in the PhaSe I development by minimizing intrusions, establishing setbacks consistent with corridor needs, and protecting them from the adverse effects of development on water quality and habitat values. 1.2 Creation and/or restoration of wetlands and riparian areas should aim to achieve higher habitat values than those areas being replaced. Portions of the Phase H lands may be utilized to fulfill this requirement of Phase I development. Biological Resources Policy 2: Use of Native Vegetation. Re-vegetate any disturbed riparian areas that are to be retained as open space with native riparian species. GUIDELINE: 2.1 Re-vegetation should aim to achieve a long-term goal of improved habitat value. Biological Resources Policy 3: Tree Removal/Preservation. Retain as many mature, healthy trees as feasible, recognizing that the Phase I land use plan results in removal of trees within development areas. New trees to be planted as part of the Plan shall replace the number of removed trees at a ratio of more than one new tree planted for each tree removed. GUIDELINES: 3.1 Consider retention of existing healthy trees if feasible when developing detailed grading and design plans for Phase I of the Planning Area as shown in the Land Use Diagram: Figure 3-1, if these trees can provide landscape value to their new environment. 3.2 Certain Heritage Trees identified in the arborist report for the Plam~ing Area will be removed as a result of new development. 3.3 The following specific trees are anticipated to be removed as part of Phase I development. 6-5
