D. DISCUSSION: • The landscape plan identifies Knock Out Roses, Columnar Boxwood, Mitchum Gray Lavender, and Hydrangea located throughout the site; however, they are not listed within the U.S. Department of Agriculture Natural Resources Conservation Service plants database. Site specific condition of approval No. 13 within the Kestrel Commons Subdivision approval for the combined preliminary/final plat states that all plants utilized in any landscape area on site shall be classified by the United States Department of Agriculture Natural Resources Conservation Service Plants Database as native to the United States and highly drought resistant. The applicant should be required to provide a revised landscape plan utilizing only plants listed on the U.S. Department of Agriculture Natural Resources Conservation Service plants database as native to the United States and highly drought resistant. The revised landscape plan should be reviewed and approved by staff and one member of the Design Review Board prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate. • The applicant's justification letter describes the architectural style of the building as Italianate which is one of the nine architectural styles identified in the Eagle Architecture and Site Design (EASD) book. The justification letter states that both the commercial and residential portions have the same Italianate treatments with different elements, but with similar window heads to tie the facades together. The site is located within the Transitional Development Area (TDA). Buildings located within the TDA require entries facing streets to be recessed a minimum of 4 -feet unless another building entry design meets the intent of the requirement and is approved by the Design Review Board and City Council. The building elevations identify a 2.5 -foot deep awning located over the building entry; the entry is not recessed. Staff defers comment regarding the building design and colors to the Design Review Board. • The landscape plan identifies a ten -foot wide sidewalk, inclusive of a new five-foot wide "red brick" section added to the existing five-foot wide smooth concrete section adjacent to Kestrel Place. This proposed sidewalk cross-section is consistent with the sidewalk constructed on the east side of Kestrel Place north of this site (approved with DR -09-98). This site is located in the TDA and pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8 -2A -6(G) the sidewalk is required to match the sidewalk exhibit within the EASD book consisting of smooth and textured concrete with a "running bond" brick pattern (see below for reference). Staff defers the sidewalk design to the Design Review Board. Page 12 of 21 K:U'lanning Dept\Eagle Applications\Dr120181DR-36-18 Mixed Use Bldg in Kestrel Commons Sub ccl:docx • The landscape plan identifies two existing Ash trees to remain as street trees. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8 -2A -6(G), any tree located within a concrete area shall include tree grates and tree wells depicted in the tree well and tree grate exhibit within the EASD book (see below for reference) and requires root barriers to mitigate sidewalk damage from the tree roots. TREE WELL SECTION RA MAN. y ttvu PISA 4.444 1. EG. b WV. � a / vs'•.. •-.v CCROETe EDGE. The applicant should be required to remove the two Ash trees and install the required root barrier, tree grate, tree well, and new trees. While attempting to retain the two Ash trees is meritorious, the Ash trees will likely decline in health following compaction of the root zone for the sidewalk construction. If the root zone is protected and not compacted, then the sidewalk will not have a sufficient base and will likely have settling issues in the near future. The applicant should be required to provide a revised landscape plan that includes the removal of the two Ash trees, includes the diagram of the Tree Well Section, and includes two new street trees. The revised landscape plan should be reviewed and approved by staff and one member of the Design Review Board prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate. • The applicant is proposing to remove two existing trees on the site (separate from the Ash trees mentioned above). One tree is a Silver Maple which does not require mitigation if first approved Page 13 of 21 K U'I.mnmg hrptll Agle Applii.auons\Ur\2011 \.l)1(-iG-1 % Mixed L)e Bldg in Kestrel Common, Sub eel' doer for removal by the City. If the Design Review Board approves the removal of the two trees, the remaining one tree will require mitigation. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8 -2A -7(C), the required mitigation for the Ash tree is 16 caliper inches. The applicant is proposing an additional 18 caliper inches of trees to be located around the building in addition to what is required per Eagle City Code Section 8 -2A -7(E)(4 & 5) for the mitigation of the trees. Mitigation for the two Ash trees recommended for removal by staff has not been proposed. Staff defers comment regarding the proposed tree removal and mitigation to the Design Review Board. • The landscape plan identifies a 5 -foot wide buffer between the southern property line and adjacent residential homes with deciduous trees and shrubs with no evergreen plant materials. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8 -2A -7(J), all buffers are required to be a mix of evergreen and deciduous trees, shrubs, and ground cover in which evergreen plant materials comprise of a minimum of 60 -percent of the total plant material. The applicant should be required to provide a revised landscape plan showing a minimum of 60 -percent of the plant material within the 5 -foot landscape buffer to be evergreen plant material. The revised landscape plan should be reviewed and approved by staff and one member of the Design Review Board prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate. • The landscape plan shows the trash enclosure located at the southeast corner of the building with a two -foot wide landscape buffer on the east and west sides of the enclosure. The only landscaping proposed around the trash enclosure is ivy which is located on the east side of the trash enclosure. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8 -2A -7(J), trash receptacles are required to be screened by a five-foot wide by six-foot high landscaped buffer. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8 -2A -K(4), parking lot interior planters are required to be a minimum of five -feet wide. The applicant should be required to provide a revised landscape plan showing the parking lot interior planter located on the east side of the trash enclosure a minimum of five -feet wide and a landscape buffer on the west side of the trash enclosure a minimum of five -feet wide. In addition, the landscape plan should identify plantings on the east, west, and north sides of the trash enclosure that will reach a height of six -feet. The revised landscape plan should be reviewed and approved by staff and one member of the Design Review Board prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate. • The elevation plan shows the trash enclosure proposed to be constructed of split face and smooth face CMU with metal gates; however, the colors of the materials are not identified. The applicant should provide a revised elevation plan identifying the colors of the trash enclosure to match and/or compliment the building.
