#6 continued from page #2.
b) . 14 . Existing vegetation will be retained when possible and
will be supplemented with proposed vegetation as shown
on the plan. Proposed trees will be low to middle
canopy flowering species to add seasonal color and
interest and avoid the potential danger much larger
trees can present when in close proximity to buildings.
Foundation and buffer plantings will consist of a
deciduous/evergreen mix to maintain impact throughout
the winter months and provide an appropriate transition
in scale at the building ground interface.
15. The project will not have any signage.
16 . The project does not require loading and unloading
facilities .
17 . Each tenant will be responsible for their own refuse
removal ; there will not be any dumpster on the project.
18. Much of the proposed project occupies the same portions
of the site as the existing use, this will minimize
disruption to the natural features of the site. All
existing mature trees around the drive and apartments
will remain and the project will be serviced off existing
utilities and municipal water and sewer. Construction
within the flood plain will be of a relatively minor
nature and result in a small increase in flood storage
capacity.
c ) . The proposed residential project is small and of a scale
which is consistent with the previous residential use of the
site. Peak and off peak traffic volumes should not change
substantially from prior volumes and should be accommodated
by the gaps created by the platooning of traffic by the
traffic lights along Bridge St. .
