Approved 5.7.25 <br /> 1098 <br /> 1099 Ashley Moncado: As I stated before. When he would come through the zoning compliance process, that's when the <br /> 1100 final landscape plan would be reviewed,working with him, and we would be referring to that list. <br /> 1101 <br /> 1102 Charity Kirk: Is it helpful if we make it a condition? <br /> 1103 <br /> 1104 Ashley Moncado: I don't know if I can answer that, again, it's between the Board and the applicant. <br /> 1105 <br /> 1106 Beth Bronson: It's your preference. That's,why you're on the Board though. Like,we can. <br /> 1107 <br /> 1108 Charity Kirk: Okay. I would like to make that a condition. <br /> 1109 <br /> 1110 Lamar Proctor: How would you phrase that? <br /> 1111 <br /> 1112 Charity Kirk: All landscaping needs to be selected from the Orange County preferred plant list. <br /> 1113 <br /> 1114 Lamar Proctor: Okay. As an amendment to Condition 15, essentially? <br /> 1115 <br /> 1116 Charity Kirk: Yes. <br /> 1117 <br /> 1118 Chris Johnston: But this is helpful to know that our plant list, if an applicant is adhering to it, may still run afoul. <br /> 1119 They may have more specific requirements than we list out. <br /> 1120 <br /> 1121 Lamar Proctor: Who,the Wildlife Commission? <br /> 1122 <br /> 1123 Chris Johnston: Yeah, the Wildlife Commission. <br /> 1124 <br /> 1125 Patrick Mallett: Well, because,they just have a different list. There is so many lists. This is why we spend a lot of <br /> 1126 time methodically thinking about as it applies to Orange County and North Carolina. <br /> 1127 <br /> 1128 Charity Kirk: I don't believe the lespedeza is on the list. Like you said, I mean I'm looking at what the Wildlife <br /> 1129 Commission is saying. I haven't actually seen the plants you've selected because it's too small. <br /> 1130 <br /> 1131 Patrick Mallett: My point is,we spent a lot of time and effort developing a list and it did give thought to not every <br /> 1132 tree is appropriate in every situation. Some are not well suited for vehicular areas, and so on and <br /> 1133 so forth. So, all I would add is that if you're going to do a condition,we have a recommended <br /> 1134 plant list, and there's nothing in the ordinance that would obligate any applicant to rigidly adhere to <br /> 1135 that plant list for selection of their materials. It's a recommended plant list.When they came in <br /> 1136 with a landscape plan,without any condition we would point to that say and we,we really prefer <br /> 1137 you use these materials. Or something from this list. <br /> 1138 <br /> 1139 Statler Gilfillen: Can we put that proposal to require it though for this approval? <br /> 1140 <br /> 1141 Lamar Proctor: Well, if Justin agrees to it. <br /> 1142 <br /> 1143 Patrick Mallett: It's not for me to say, it's for the Board to discuss with the applicant. <br /> 1144 <br /> 1145 Justin Chandler: With consideration with my landscape plan, I'd use the list as my reference for what I put on the <br /> 1146 property. I'm happy to adhere to it. I'm happy to put it in my site plan notes. I'm happy to put it as <br /> 1147 a condition. Whatever you guys want. <br /> 1148 <br /> 1149 Charity Kirk: I don't have a list. I haven't seen it. Okay. I can continue poking, but I think I've spent enough <br /> 1150 time. I'm ready to move on. <br /> 1151 <br />
