AMENDMENT NO. 1
TO
ORDINANCE NO. BL2010-778

Dear Madam President:

I move to amend Ordinance No. BL2010-778 by inserting additional conditions in Section 4 as follows:

“24. Where visible from the residential property in the Burkitt Place subdivision, rooftop mechanical equipment will be screened from the view from the residential property behind the shopping center through the use of raised rear wall parapets or the construction of screen walls built from materials and color pallets consistent with the exterior of the building.

25. In cooperation with The Village of Burkitt Place Owners’ Association, Inc. and the Burkitt Place Homeowners Association, Inc. (collectively “the HOA”), the rear property line buffer will be established prior to issuance of the Final Certificate of Use and Occupancy as follows (see Exhibit A attached hereto):
(a) Area A (950 LF +/- from Burkitt Road ROW to the Stream Buffer) shall have a minimum twenty-foot (20’) wide undisturbed buffer within a forty-foot (40’) overall bufferyard width. This undisturbed area will be maximized based on grading. The Developer will set aside a budget of $36,000.00 (“Area A Allowance”) to be used to enhance the existing mass of mature trees by planting additional trees within the 40’ overall bufferyard. The budget allowance equates to approximately 120 – 4”caliper, 10’-12’ tall trees. If the entire budget is not spent in Area A due to the thickness of the existing buffer, the Area A Allowance will be added to the Area B Allowance. Once grading is established and the undisturbed buffer is determined, the Developer will consult with the HOA and allow the HOA to determine the number, size, type and location of the trees to be planted within the Area A Allowance. Slopes steeper than a 3:1 grade will not be able to handle larger trees and will need to be planted with smaller materials.
(b) Area B (960 LF +/- from the Stream Buffer to the Burkitt Place Drive ROW, excluding Area C) shall have a minimum forty-foot (40’) bufferyard on shopping center property with an additional twenty-foot (20’) planted buffer, including a minimum three-foot (3’) high berm, on the HOA property. The Developer will set aside a budget of $51,000.00 (“Area B Allowance”) for the Area B bufferyard. The budget allowance equates to approximately 170 – 4” caliper, 10’-12’ tall trees. Landscape plantings will consist of a mix of evergreen and deciduous trees spaced according to size and species. Sizes will be a minimum of three inch (3”) caliper for deciduous trees and twelve feet (12’) tall for evergreen trees.
(c) Area C (located approximately 200’ north of the Burkitt Place Drive ROW on HOA property) contains an existing mass of mature trees approximately 50’ thick that will remain undisturbed.”
