The preliminary drainage study for the plan indicates that the proposed development can be achieved without increasing the upstream or downstream water surface elevation on property owned by third parties and that detention and drainage areas can be improved in a natural manner approved by the Board; and 6. Landscaping for the Town Edge Landscaping Zone (as hereinafter defined) promotes continuity and unity consistent with the landscape plan for the development and encourages views to public open space and public landmarks. E. Conditions. The Commission, or the Board on appeal, may establish such conditions to the approval of a PD Site Plan as are reasonably necessary to assure that the approval criteria are met. F. Appeal from Commission Action. If the Commission approves a PD Site Planwith conditions or if it disapproves a PD Site Plan, the applicant may appeal the decision to the Board by filing a written request with the Town Secretary within ten (10) days after the Commission's decision. G. Variances. If the applicant requests a variance from any PD Ordinance standards or other requirements of the Applicable Town Ordinances (as defined in the PD Ordinance), the variance request will be forwarded to the Board with the Commission's recommendation for decision. Except as otherwise provided by the PD Ordinance the procedures and criteria for approval shall be those applicable to variances under the UDC. H. Amendment. PD Site Plans are not considered part of a PD Ordinance. Except as otherwise provided in this Subsection, any amendment to an approved PD Site Plan must be approved by the Commission. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, "minor modifications" to any PD Site Plan may be approved by the Town Planner. A "minor modification" to a PD Site Plan is defined as any modification that does not: 1. alter the basic relationship of proposed development to adjacent property; Article I. General Provisions Page 8 2. change the uses permitted; 3. increase the maximum density, floor area, or height; 4. decrease the amount of off-street parking, unless parking remains sufficient in number and conforms to ordinance requirements; or 5. reduce the minimum yards or setbacks. However, if the Town Planner believes that a minor modification entails a significant change in the Site Plan, he may refer the request to the Commission for a determination.

Section 3.8 General Site Tree Planting A. Intent. It is the intent of this subsection to plant trees to improve energy conservation and Article VI. Landscape Requirements Page 31 comfort levels, as well as to enhance the rural character of the Town. Tree groupings located in close proximity to buildings on the south and southwest sides will reduce sun exposure, glare and heat build-up, particularly during the warm summer months. Conversely, chilling winter winds from the north and northwest can be buffered and ro �it�d�wltpr�er�tr-planiingr, rlpngdraer��ould re -directed toward external public spaces to enhance the comfort and enjoyment of these protected areas. B. Method to Determine Tree Requirement. 1. Land Area. General site tree density is derived from the amount of permeable green space on the site (excluding Town edge landscape zones, roadway landscape zones, parking lot Spot Islands and Linear islands, parking lot edges and screening for loading and service areas). Permeable green space is defined as planted or grassed areas, as opposed to impervious surfaces such as building or parking areas, plazas and walkways. 2. Tree Requirement. A total minimum of twenty-five (25) large trees shall remain or be planted per acre of the site's permeable green space (along with native plant species). This quantity of trees is in addition to trees required in parking areas, the Town edge landscape zone, roadway landscape zones, roadway medians and in screening of loading and service areas. C. Tree Size. All trees shall be large trees (however, two ornamental trees may be substituted for one large tree). Section 3.9 Screening of Loading and Service Areas A. Intent. it is the intent of this subsection to screen service and loading areas from residential areas and from publicly dedicated open space and public roadways. It is also the intent of this subsection to screen dumpsters from view. B. Screening of Loading and Service Areas. 1. All off-street service and loading areas which abut a residential area or publicly dedicated open space or public roadways must be screened from view with a landscape reserve along such service or loading area. Screening within the landscape reserve may be accomplished through one of the following methods (at the option of the owner): a) A walllus a minimum of one large tree planted per each thirty (30) linear feet of landscape reserve; or b) Large evergreen shrubs with an initial height that will create a solid planting within two (2) years plus a minimum of one large tree planted per each thirty (30) linear feet of landscape reserve; or c) Evergreen trees planted to create a solid planting within two (2) years at a minimum height of eight (8) feet. Trees shall be a species of Eldarica Pine, Savannah Holly, Leyland Cypress or [other species]; or d). A berm with evergreen shrubs planted to create solid planting within two (2) years plus a minimum of one large tree for each thirty (30) linear feet of the berm. The minimum height of the berm shall be three (3) feet, measured from the highest existing elevation of the landscape reserve. Berm side -slopes shall not exceed a 3:1 slope (to allow safe mowing and maintenance of the slope). Evergreen shrubs shall be Article VI. Landscape Requirements Page 32 planted on the berm for an extra five (5) feet minimum screen height. Furthermore, a minimum of one large tree shall be planted for each thirty (30) linear feet of the berm. v C c"i-Rinf:,11.[np.ttrc, 1. Placement. Dumpsters shall be located at the side or rear of the property outside of the required building setback areas. 2. Screening. Dumpsters shall be screened on three sides, using one of the following methods (at the option of the owner): a) A masonry wall enclosure (compatible with adjacent architecture) of a height that is a minimum of one foot above the top of the dumpster; or b) A planting enclosure of large evergreen shrubs planted a minimum of four (4) feet apart that shall create a solid screen to a minimum height of seven (7) feet within two (2) years; or c) A combination of the above; or d) Otherwise as shown on an approved PD Site Plan.
