Devon Park I subdivision was submitted to accommodate the future right of way taking for the public streets. I expanded the subdivision to include the future commercial lots. I understand that our zoning approvals consist of only conceptual approvals, a detailed conditional use will be required before any building pemuts will be issued. The only exception is Lot 1 Block 2, we have a detailed conditional use approval to construct three office buildings. Please review the attached landscape plan and the letter dated August 12, 2002 in regards to the landscaping for Devon Park I subdivision. It was my understanding that the landscaping required for the Devi,n Park I would include the frontage along Fairview and along the public street frontages. We aze currently negotiating with two of our commercial anchor tenants, fhe location and size of the buildings may change from the conceptual approval. We are planning on submitting for detailed.approval in the neaz future. The landscape buffering around the commercial.development would potentially have to be partially removed to allow for fixture. construction. I would like to requesf that our landscape buffering as required be installed in phases to accommodate future planning changes and construction: 1. Phase I would include the Fairview Avenue frontage, North Retail Avenue and East Carol Street. The work would be completed along with the construction of the"roads. We-would like to stag work in July 2003. 2: Phase II would include Block 2 Lof 1 in conjunction with the construction of the office buildings.. Construction to begimin August 2003. 3.
