Corrections:	Correction 1: Other/Miscellaneous Status: Resolved Date Status Changed: 08/08/2024 Comments: LANDSCAPE: Provide a cross section view of the landscaping yard's proposed dimensions, grading, walls/fence and plant materials. A cross section view is needed to demonstrate the proposed design. LANDSCAPE: Provide conifer trees in the reduced landscape yard instead of deciduous. The proposed width of landscape may be justified if the screening of the project use is still provided with the correct plant materials. LANDSCAPE: The prelim landscape plan shows landscaping in the far SE corner of the site; prelim civil plans show substantial civil utility conflicts in that location. Is the applicant proposing to eliminate all landscaping in that corner of the development? Please clarify. Staff may recommend setting those utilities back interior to the site to maintain some landscape cover in that area.
