Mitigation: No mitigation is required per LDC 6.00.04, as no native vegetation over 24 inches is to be
removed.
Conditions of Issuance: The following minimum standards for vegetation protection shall be applied to
areas of vegetation designated to be preserved (Land Development Code Section 6.00.05.C). All areas
outside the development footprint shall be considered preserve areas. Specifically, the 30 ft. landscape buffer
along Legends Drive frontage shall preserve all existing native vegetation and removal of exotics vegetation
shall be performed via the least ecologically damaging method. A barrier shall be placed and maintained
around the tree’s perimeter to form a continuous boundary as specified below.
• Vegetation protection barricades shall be placed at a minimum distance of either ten (10) feet from the
edge of groups of protected vegetation or from the radius of the dripline from all protected trees,
whichever is greater; in the event that a full 10-foot buffer cannot be provided, the applicant shall provide
the maximum buffer feasible;
• Protective barriers or protective designations shall remain in place until completion of site construction
and clearing activities;
• In the event that any protective barriers are removed or altered and clearing activities are conducted
within an area identified for preservation, SLC ERD is authorized to direct that all land clearing and site
alteration work at the site be stopped until the barriers are restored and any necessary corrective actions
taken to repair or replant any vegetation removed or damaged as a result of these encroachments;
• Preservation areas shall be maintained in their natural state, so as not to alter the water and oxygen
content of the soil and impair its function;
• No grade changes or excavation of any sort may be made within the barricaded areas;
• No signs, permits, wires, or other attachments shall be affixed or attached to protected vegetation; and
• No equipment, including passenger vehicles, shall be driven, parked, or stored or repaired within
designated vegetation preservation areas.
Post Clearing Requirements:
1. Landscaping: The landscape requirements of one native tree per 2,500 square feet of property, up
to a maximum of 17 trees, must be met. As this property is .14 acres (acres X 43,560 = square feet

at breast height (DBH) & 12’ HT), or a total of 27.5” DBH of trees are required. Please note that
landscaping requirements are separate from, and in addition to, tree mitigation requirements.

CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES OR FILL PLACEMENT SHALL BE MITIGATED AT A RATIO OF 4:1 (4 INCHES OF REPLANTING FOR EACH
