All individuals, developers and contractors on the site shall follow each standard of the tree protection plan with care. All planners, utility and construction crews and individuals associated with the project shan be made aware of each standard and specification along with the consequences for violating them. Penalties and reforestation conditions are to be incorporated in the specific site specifications of the final plan. IJ 3. All woodlands and trees to be preserved shall be enclosed by an appropriate construction barrier, such as a snow fence, and identified by signs stating "Tree Preservation Zone" prior to commencing any land disturbance. Fences need to remain in place during all phases of construction. They are not 10 be removed until the construction is finished unless the community development direclor or city arbarist gives written consent. r ~ U ( . U 4. The protective zone for woodland groups and specimen trees should be specified in the final plan, but shall be no less than the total area beneath the trees' canopy defined by the fatihest canopy of the tree(s) plus an additional 5 feet unless otherwise approved by the community development director or the city arborist. o 5. Designated material and debris holding areas along with construction parking areas should be established at least 25 feet from any preservation zone. u 6. Prior to commencing any land disturbance, a meeting shall be held with the city arborist and representati ves from the developer, contractor and builder. [J 7. If the trees being preserved will be affected by construction activities, the individual trees need to be listed in the site specifications. If there are branches or roots that need pruning, it should be done by tTained personnel using equipment designed specifically for that purpose. For installation of utilities, tunneling or directional boring is encouraged to limit the destruction of the root systems. Any trenches affecting tree root systems should be immediately backfilled and mulched or covered as addressed in the erosion control site specifications (327 lAC 15-5 Rule 5). u ( 1 U u 8. Areas adjacent to tree preservation zones shall be mulched (a minimum of 6') to provide additional protection to tree roots.

The developer shall agree to keep an arborist on staff until completion of the construction project. 12. Post-construction tree care and maintenance (including watering) of newly planted vegetation should be specified in the final plan site specifications. u 13.

The developer voluntarily adopts this tree preservation policy. The general standards and site specifications should be closely followed and not changed unless prior approval is given in writing from the community development director or city arborist. u o u o u u u u u U D U o Page 6 of 6 BDDBOI 4X74604vl u ~ D ~ site vicini:t1: Eictures r~r... o U U U U D U U ~ ~ l W o U U o View of property from drive off 99th Street chesterton woods t- IU I ~
