Instructions: Delete the current "Woodland Management Plan Notes" on the Preliminary Plat
and Woodland Management Plan and substitute the following:
TREE PRESERVATION CALCULATIONS
Baseline Canopy Coverage = 90% (calculated using existing aerial photography)
Minimum Canopy Coverage required with current zoning = 55%
Lot Impact Area Calculations: Based on 105 foot depth, regardless of actual removals
Lot No. A vg. Width Depth Area (sq. ft.)
1 90 105 9450
2 92 105 9660
3 90 105 9450
4 NA - Existing home will remain 0
5 NA - Existing home will remain 0
TOTAL AREA 28,560
Summary
Existing Subdivision Total Area = 2.61 acres
Existing Canopy Coverage = 2.61 * 90% = 2.35 acres
Proposed Lot Impact Area = 28,560 sq. ft. = 0.66 acres
Proposed Sanitary Sewer Impact Area = 320'*20' = 6400 sq. ft. = 0.15 acres
Proposed Remaining Canopy Coverage = 2.35 - 0.66 - 0.15 = 1.54 acres = 59%
Since the remaining canopy coverage (59%) is greater than the minimum canopy coverage
(55%), no reforestation plan is required.
