This item concerns proposed landscaping and buffer standards for new development. Specifically, it is planned that lots 20,000 square feet or greater must include a minimum of six canopy trees. This proposal is currently under review by the Planning and Zoning Commission. If approved, this could lead to work involving site preparation, tree planting, and ongoing landscape maintenance. Local contractors, nurseries, and landscape suppliers may find opportunities related to these new requirements.
