Hi Shawn,
Thank you for taking the time to meet with me this week and review the submitted plan to the Eagle Design Review Committee. We
very much appreciate you and your client's sensitivity to the impact that this element will have on our neighborhood's quality of life.
The two main concerns from the neighborhood are, minimizing the visual impact, and to minimize the sound impact. Because of the
industrial feel from this element, the more Skyway can do up front to soften the blow, the better off for everyone involved.
Myself having a background in Landscape Architecture, and designing exterior spaces for a living, I have a good understanding of the
landscape plan you presented. To review a few options to the plan that you and I discussed:
1) Replace the Privet hedge with a more immediate gratification evergreen plant. The 5 gal. Privet will be a lovely hedge at some
point, but the 2' tall plants will take 6-8 years to fill in, to completely hide the 8' vinyl fencing. It will also take 6-8 years to fill in
completely and help soften the noise from the AC units. There is an evergreen plant, Spartan Juniper, which will grow 5' wide by 15'
tall. I spoke with Jayker's Nursery this week, and they are bringing in 5-6' tall Spartan Juniper plants for roughly $75 each. We typically
plant those 3.5' apart, so that they completely provide a dense hedge. And, at 6' tall, will provide the much needed visual and sound
buffer much sooner than the Privet hedge was intended for. 200 LF of fencing minus the 16' for a double gate, equals 184 LF of fence
to cover. Divided by 3.5 equals about 52 plants x $75 equals $3900.
2) We also appreciate the token 25' Colorado Blue Spruce specimen that is being planted, but this will take 30-35 years to reach it's full
grown height of 65'. We would like to see fast growing Poplars incorporated into the plan, and help minimize the height impact over the
long term.
3) We would like the Design Review Committee to make a site visit and do a thorough sound analysis after this compound is installed.
If the sound from the AC units are unacceptable in our residential neighborhood, we ask that an internal layer of sound reducing barrier
(concrete or foam?) be installed inside the vinyl fencing. It is a very quiet, serene, park like setting, and bringing the noise from this
industrial element will be quite invasive, and we ask for your awareness of this.
Thank you again, and I am looking forward to hearing from you,
David Schwartz
