From’ Peter J Bedker To Mike Gaffron Date 6/17/99 Time 11 23 :o AM Paje 4 of 5 <br />Mr. Weinberger - June 16,1999 <br />Page 3 <br />5. The above spacing should be staggered somewhat to provide for a more natural look <br />6. At the top of the slope and towards both sides, larger 4.0 to 4 5 inch ca ’iper trees should be planted <br />These trees by established standards should have an average height of 16 to 18 feet and 18 feet and <br />greater, respectively (ANSI Z60.1-1990). These trees should provide sufficient to begin to soften and <br />obscure the roof line of the Lusaich residence from the lake as soon as they are planted. The peak of <br />the east gable is 18 feet above grade and the peak of the gable end in the center of the house Is 26 <br />feet above grade <br />7. Existing stumps and root systems should be left in place They v;ill continue to stabilize the slope and <br />prevent erosion. Any engineered solution would replace the natural character of the site. The <br />exception to tnis are three stumps located in the center of the house at the top of the slope, these may <br />be removed with ?. minimum of concern. <br />8. Planting within the slope should be done by hand with a minimum of soil disturbance. <br />The above parameters should provide sufficient guidance for developing a landscape restoration plan for <br />the L'jzaich residence. Unfortunately, it will still take time for the landscape to recover. <br />Please call me if you have any questions, or if I may be of further assistance. <br />■ Sirtceoely, <br />Peter j Bedker, Ph.D. <br />Consultng Community Forester
