The Tree Assessment was <br /> the reference point for tree health and condition. I referred to the Site Plan created by <br /> FCGA Architecture, provided on August 3, 2016 to evaluate the impacts to trees from the <br /> proposed development. <br /> The plan proposes to construct a three new buildings one of which will be a restaurant <br /> with a drive through window and an associated parking lot. Due to the density of <br /> construction, tree preservation will not be possible. <br /> Eleven trees, including Heritage tree#110,will be removed to accomplish the planned <br /> construction (Table 3). Callery pear#112, located off-site, should survive the impacts <br /> associated with site development. <br />. <br /> High: Trees with good health and structural stability that have the <br /> potential for longevity at the site. <br /> Moderate: Trees with somewhat declining health and/or structural <br /> defects than can be abated with treatment. The tree will <br /> require more intense management and monitoring, and may <br /> have shorter life span than those in 'high' category. <br />e shocked if any one of us didn't get nasty grams from <br /> then on and I agree with Commissioner O'Connor that that intersection is already horrible. So <br /> you may be talking two more cars to 13 and you're on Owens, and if you block Hopyard we're <br /> going to be hearing it forever and I would hate to vote in favor of a project that would do that. <br /> Again, my comment about the plans labeled "Owens Court." Starbucks has a base for your <br /> evaluation as Bernal. I do worry that that is not comparable for the traffic and my only comment <br /> to that is I avoid that Starbucks because of its location and its circulation pattern. So I'm not <br /> being counted in there because it's so deep and so tricky to get through that parking lot to get <br /> to that Starbucks buried in there that I think we're misrepresenting what we might see here <br /> with the prominent freeway access and the volume of traffic going down Hopyard. <br /> Excerpt: Planning Commission Minutes, September 28, 2016 Page 19 of 20 <br />lanning Commission <br /> Page 11 of 19 <br />
