Removal of this stately redwood tree (and the large tree slightly to the left tree trunk <br />is small area flanking the <br />project entrance is UNCONSCIONABLE! <br /> <br /> <br />Notes underneath the Label for Tract C on Site Plan L 6.0 indicate <br /> <br /> <br />The Response Committee (and the entire neighborhood) fears that this type of willful disregard <br />unabated. Why cannot the <br />Applicant and his Consultant work with these beautiful trees to create their entrance? <br /> <br />Tract D is the largest of the 3 Tracts at 2,426 SF and the flattest at an estimated 23% slope. <br />However, it is 6-sided and at the very southwest corner of the project. Tract C has basically been <br />carved out of the front yard of the existing residence on Lot 20. See screenshot above taken <br />from Site Plan L 3.1. <br /> <br />Tract B, although about 2161 SF, is steep (approximate 27% slope) and skinny (approximately <br />20 ft. wide and 108 ft. long). The shape of this strip of land, which runs from a paved street <br />(Cupola Drive) uphill between Lots 29 and 30 to dead end at Lot 24 is not conducive to <br />the movement of wildlife. <br /> <br />The Application only designates this strip of land as open space because it is needed as an above- <br />ground drainage swale. The water collected in Tract B will collect toward the oblong piece of <br />Tract A (between Lots 13 and 14) that contains the underground storm water pipes that channel <br />water down to the eastern edge of the project near the Ribbon Trail. <br /> <br /> <br />Page 4 <br /> <br />
