It is the City's <br /> understanding that the goal of the project is that in 2-3 years the hillside will again appear fully vegetated <br /> and naturally wooded with a variety of species of varying heights. <br /> Conditions of Approval: Because removal of any 6"-plus trees within 75' of the lakeshore requires City <br /> approval,and because City ordinances prohibit clearcutting within 75'of the shoreline or on steep slopes or <br /> within bluff areas, the following guidelines shall be adhered to as a condition of City approval: <br /> 1. Contractor shall mark in the field and identify on a plan the location and species of all trees to be <br /> removed within 75' of the shareline that are 6" diameter or larger, and shall obtain approval of the <br /> City inspector prior to the removal of such trees. <br /> 2.

[t is the City's understanding that approximately half of the vegetation on the lakeshore will be <br /> removed,that all significant trees will be saved,that many trees will be pruned,that many clumps <br /> of trees will be thinned, all with the intent of removing excessive growth, raising the level of the <br /> overstory so that selected young trees and shrubs in the understory can thrive.Further,it is the City's <br /> understanding that the ground cover will be restored using various plant materials which will be <br /> specified in detail as to species and location by contractor as soon as plans are completed. <br /> 4. It is the City's intent that existing vegetative screening of the grotto, rock wall and lakeshare <br /> accessory building will be retained or replaced in kind to provide at least the same measure of <br /> screening from the lake that currently exists. <br /> 5.
