§ 19.9. Density Requirements.  


Latest version.
  • The quantity of total existing and replacement trees on a site must be sufficient to produce a total site density factor as follows: Trees should be distributed throughout the development and not located in only one area. Procedures for determining the site density requirements and subsequent tree replacements are provided in appendix C.

    19.9-1 The required site density for each site shall be calculated by multiplying the total acreage of the site by the required site density factor for the appropriate zoning district (see Article VII).

    District Site Density Factor (in units per acre)
    _____
    AG 20 (Platted new development only)
    AGR 20 (Platted new development only)
    LRR 20 (Platted new development only)
    RR 20 *(Certain exemptions may apply to this district)
    SFMD 15
    LR 15
    CRVP 15
    MHP 15
    MFR 12
    NC 12 (Also subject to QDC requirements)
    GC 12 (Also subject to QDC requirements)

    1.

    Tree densities for properties zoned PUD shall be determined at the time of concept plan submittal. Site Density is not a factor in determining successful stewardship, unified and connective design, or appropriate design for the neighborhood in which it is located.

    2.

    *These exemptions shall be determined prior to final plat submittal. Example: SDF for a Wooded Site zoned AG is calculated by multiplying the total acres by 20 units per acre. A ten-acre site by 20 units per acre equals 200 units.
