Referrals From Mayor and Council-04/23/2002



Subject Tree Ordinance



Description Motor Vehicle, Boat & Mobile Home Sales:As it relates to the

islands, have the staff to consider requiring them to meet the TDU

requirements, but allow them to exercise judgment as to where they place those

trees.



Also have the staff to see if we can look at having it fall under compliance

requirements should it ever ceased to exist and be purchased by a different

industry, then require them to meet the island requirements if a shopping

center moved into a vacated car lot or marine lot. (Request of Councilor

Henderson)



Have the staff to put on the list for discussion the possibility of having some

call to compliance that would not hold up the closing of property. Also, list

for discussion, some window of post-closing for residential Developments, to

come into compliance with the already agreed upon commitments to the TDU or

whatever falls within that planting requirement.

(Request of Councilor Henderson)
