a. ADDITIONAL COMMENTS:
1.
Forestry has reviewed a set of plans dated February 2010 and have the following comments and recommendations:
Relevant Municipal Code Requirements
Indigenous Tree Ordinance (GMC 12.44)
Glendale Municipal Code requires all persons to submitting accurate plans showing exact locations of each protected indigenous tree in the subject area and on adjoining properties whose trunks or branches are located twenty (20) feet outside the subject property line.
There is one California sycamore (Platanus racemosa) within 20’ of the project, but this tree is located within the City of Los Angeles, and is therefore not subject to GMC 12.44.
Street Tree Ordinance (GMC 12.40)
Glendale Municipal Code requires a Street Tree Permit prior to any site disturbance to or near street trees .
There are no existing City street trees adjacent to the project site, and due to limited space and the angle of the roadway near the traffic signal, Public Works will not require the planting of any trees at this time.
Requirements:
1. Per GMC 12.44, add the following note regarding Indigenous Trees to the project site plan:
“Protected oak, sycamore, bay trees on the property and within 20’ of the property are inaccessible to the proposed construction activity and will experience NO impact. No protective fencing is required.”
b. CASE SPECIFIC CODE REQUIREMENTS: (these are not standard code requirements)
