surrounded by an approximately 20 -acre lake, and is not anticipated to negatively impact
the surrounding properties nor the safety of the onsite circulation pattern.
5. Administrative relief for required landscaping has met the provisions for relief set forth in
LDC Section 7.09.04.0. Staff has provided a written analysis that demonstrates the
proposed relief is based upon conditions that are unique and peculiar to the site
conditions and will not affect surrounding property. The Environmental Regulations

landscaping requirements and found it to be acceptable.
