34 <br /> DRAFT EXCERPT <br /> 165 staff—is that they would be placed at reasonable distance away from the foundation to survive. <br /> 166 Because survival and growth is the purpose. Screening is the purpose. <br /> 167 <br /> 168 Lamar Proctor: It's a minimum of 5 feet from the foundation, right? <br /> 169 <br /> 170 Cy Stober: Yes. <br /> 171 <br /> 172 Statler Gilfillen: You could put a tree almost, a 4-foot tree almost right on the foundation, and that is structurally <br /> 173 not good for the foundation. I have a shed with an ash tree that is cracking a foundation right now. <br /> 174 <br /> 175 Beth Bronson: But these are non-residential development standards, correct? <br /> 176 <br /> 177 Perdita Holtz: They are. This is an existing standard. The red is the new stuff. <br /> 178 <br /> 179 Charity Kirk: I mean, I do think when I was talking to Patrick about this a long time ago, he was trying to clarify <br /> 180 this for a certain amount of non-landscapers out there,well, some portion of it. So, for the non- <br /> 181 landscapers that don't understand having a little bit more clarity about a minimum distance away <br /> 182 from the building foundation might be, I think, I would agree that that would probably be helpful. <br /> 183 <br /> 184 Perdita Holtz: People have to submit the plan of how they're going to plant, and during staff review, I think that <br /> 185 things like that could be caught if they're saying that they're going to plant their holly bush a foot <br /> 186 from the foundation. <br /> 187 <br /> 188 Charity Kirk: Yeah, it could, but it might not be caught, too, and it would be easier for people to have something <br /> 189 in writing. <br /> 190 <br /> 191 Statler Gilfillen: When a plant is very small, it's very common just to put it right up against the foundation. <br /> 192 <br /> 193 Perdita Holtz: I believe you should work it into your motion if you want to make this change. <br /> 194 <br /> 195 Charity Kirk: So, Statler,what is the minimum distance from the foundation that you would suggest? <br /> 196 <br /> 197 Statler Gilfillen: Typically, it's enough so you can walk behind, between the plant and the foundation,which is <br /> 198 about 2 feet. <br /> 199 <br /> 200 Charity Kirk: So, a minimum of 2 feet. <br /> 201 <br /> 202 Statler Gilfillen: Minimum of 2 feet, and then 5 or 6 feet of planting beyond that should be acceptable to control it. <br /> 203 <br /> 204 Beth Bronson: Yeah, and again, I think that we're taking this as a very literal thing, and to add it to the motion is <br /> 205 going to maybe clarify, but it may actually make it more confusing,too. In that sense, it's about <br /> 206 non-commercial buildings. It's that you can't see the dirty foot from where the dirt is after they're <br /> 207 done building, and then you don't see the corners of the building going into the ground. That's my <br /> 208 understanding of what the intention here is, is that you don't just have a bar building going around. <br /> 209 Now,that said,to previously points, that could be 10, 15 feet away from the foundation because, <br /> 210 typically, some non-commercial buildings are not going to be right up on the sidewalk or within 5 <br /> 211 feet of the right of way. And in something like a more dense urban area, like a municipality, 1 <br /> 212 could see that development standard being different or there being exceptions to that, such as <br /> 213 Part 2. <br /> 214 <br /> 215 Marilyn Carter: Is there going to be a motion made? Because I have a different question I'd like to pose, <br /> 216 completely different subject. <br /> 217 <br /> 218 Adam Beeman: No,we're not in motion section yet. We got a ways to go. <br /> 219 <br />
