Kris -
Here is a copy of the memo I sent to Scott/Dan.
Kathy
Scott/Dan -
I have reviewed the landscape plan submitted for the old
Karmann Jack's site by Tony Lodge and visited the site again 311102.
1 have the following comments:
The plan submitted is not the final approved landscape plan
and does not match what is existing on site. The final plan has a
revision date of 519100 and I wrote a memo 5/11100 which indicates my
acceptance of the revised plan. I later visited the site and
inspected the installed plantings.
During my visit to the site 3/1/02, 1 noticed several
problems which will need to be remedied:
1. Root balls of most planted trees are exposed (no mulch or
soil over burlap. Root balls need to be coverd with an inch or two
of soil and 4 inches of wood chip mulch.
2. The area north of the parking lot is very weedy and this
area should at least be mowed during the growing season. A better,
more attractive option would be to re -seed the open areas with a
turfgrass mix.
3. Any trees or shrubs which are dead by time of leaf -out in
May should be replaced.
