2. A minimum of three (3) canopy trees for lots between six thousand one (6,001) and ten thousand (10,000) square

Planning and Zoning Commission · 2026-06-17 · agenda_item

This item concerns a proposed change to tree planting requirements for new residential lots. The proposal specifies that lots between 6,001 and 10,000 square feet must include at least three canopy trees. This is currently under review by the Planning and Zoning Commission. If approved, this change would impact future residential development, requiring specific landscaping elements during the construction phase. This could create opportunities for landscape contractors, nursery suppliers, and arborists. Early engagement with the planning department or developers could provide insight into how these requirements will be implemented and managed.
