Scenic Road Advisory Committee

Section 407.41(l) still requires 30% of site under mature canopy within 30 years
Strict interpretation of clear zones at intersections may limit the number of trees allowed to shade the road
Moving multi-use path outside of right-of-way may allow canopy to be provided on lots instead of in the right-of-way
Requiring a 20-foot-wide planting space for some large canopy trees may result in developers choosing smaller trees which may result in less shade on roadways

Shading of roadways

Staff recommends keeping the current proposed language which provides flexibility, discourages increasing parking, but also ensures that adequate safe parking is provided.
