In general, the 37,300 s.f. building footprint requires 1 overstory tree per 1,000 s.f. footprint, or 37 such trees. At least 30% of required overstory trees must be coniferou.s.

The 37,300 s.f. building wmdd also require 124 shrubs as a minimum; this standard is more than met, with appro,ximately 220 shrub.s shown on the plan. The bcmi between the condo building and the public works site will be heavily planted with with a mix of trees, primarily evergreens.
