Item No . 3 _ PC : 5-19-88 SA-88-31 Page 5 provided. Details of a landscaping and irrigation plan shall be shown on the Improvement Plan. As an alter- native, two copies of a separate landscaping and irriga- tion plan shall be submitted to the Director . In either case, landscape details shall include a key showing size, type, number, and spacing of all proposed plantings . Details of an automatic and timed sprinkler system shall be shown, and all approved landscaping and sprinklers shall be in place prior to issuance of an occupancy per- mit . The landscaped areas shall be planted in the following manner : ( 1 ) In landscaped areas running parallel to streets , trees shall be spaced no further than 25 feet apart . Trees shall be a minimum one-inch caliper and 15-gallon size at the time of planting and shall be double staked. The tree type shall be selected from the County' s tree list . ( 2) Landscaped areas shall contain shrubs and/or living ground cover; concrete, asphalt , and any surface material including rocks or bark are not acceptable . ° "Because of the water shortge, and the need to conserve water, the public ' s best interest would be better served by allowing nonliving ground cover to be allowed. " d. The proposed office shall meet all requirements for flood hazard reduction as specified under Section 9-10325 of the Planning Title. ° "If the proposed office is deleted, this requirement would not apply. " In addition to the preceding comments on specific conditions, the appellant also states the following in his appeal : "The uses contemplated on this site are temporary in nature, since the tenants are operating under relatively short-term leases. If these leases are extended for a longer period or the property is sold to them, the provisions set forth may be appropriate at that time. " ANALYSIS OF APPEAL: The applicant is appealing conditions that are standard require- ments for commercial and industrial developments . These stan- dards are routinely applied by staff in a consistent manner .
