The following design guidance is intended to enhance, preserve and develop the City's environment by: • Managing development impacts by planting trees and landscaping in order to increase the real estate values of properties; and Creating innovative and environmentally friendly landscape designs that enhance and define the public and private spaces. The (...Aof Soi.ith Bend Forester and Engineering will work together with respect to clarification and guidance during plan reviews. Communication for tree plantings and landscaping requirements shall be through Engineering during these plan reviews. 8-1.2 OVERVIEW This guidance is to address landscaping applied as part of a development project or to be incorporated as part of the surface restoration from work performed within the right-of-way. This section is not intended to be a substitute for code requirements required in �tpt,t 19 Trees an Venh uu p_an. ;i Where design guidance conflicts between this section and the subdivision ordinance, the more restrictive requirement shall govern. 8-1.3 PLANTING SEASONS Landscape and other planting work performed within the right-of-way shall be performed in their respective species' planting season. Typically, these planting seasons are either spring or fall. Spring Planting shall occur from the time the soil first becomes workable up to June 15. Fall Planting shall occur from September 1 to November 15. Evergreen shrub plantings shall occur no later than November 1, and evergreen tree plantings shall occur no later than October 15. Plantings that occur outside of the specified planting seasons shall be approved by the City. Plantings occurring in the summer season, generally from June through August, or other unseasonable conditions may require watering and additional measures to sustain said plantings. Approval to plant in these unseasonable conditions shall be acquired prior to execution. Proposed plantings shall be placed to the extent possible when conditions are optimal for their long-term viability. 8-1.4 PERMITS See the 01p ..- �..
