TABLE FOUR: Landscape Perimeter Buffer Yards <br />How to use the following table: First, determine the acreage of the property that is being developed. Then, look to the vertical column on the left that corresponds to the required buffer yard level. Read across until you have <br />located the acreage column. Buffer yard requirements appear vertically under the acreage column. For example, a parcel over three acres but less than 3.5 acres, requiring a level one buffer yard, would need a yard of at least 58 <br />feet wide with 2 shade or 4 ornamental trees per every 50' linear feet and 15 shrubs per every 50' linear feet. <br />If project acreage is <br />less than: <br />0.5 <br />1 <br />1.5 <br />2 <br />2.5 <br />3 <br />3.5 <br />4 <br />4.5 <br />5 <br />5.5 <br />6 <br />6.5 <br />7 <br />7.5 <br />8 <br />9 <br />9 <br />9.5 <br />10 or more acres <br />Landcape Buffer Yard <br />Requirement is: <br />Buffer yard # 1 <br />Width of yard <br />43' 1 46' 1 49' 52' 1 55' 58' 1 61' 1 64' 1 67' 1 70' 1 73' 76' 1 79' 82' 1 85' 88' 191 94' 1 97' 1 100' <br />2 shade trees or 4 ornametals for every 50' <br />15 shrubs for every 50' <br />Buffer yard # 2 <br />Width of yard <br />25' 27' 30' 33' 36' 38' 41' 43' 46' 49' 15 1' 54' 57' 59' 62' 65' 167 170 172 75' <br />2 shade trees or 4 ornamental for every 50' <br />10 shrubs for every 50' <br />Buffer yard # 3 <br />Width of yard <br />12' 14' 16' 18' 20' 22' 24' 26' 28' 30' 32' 34' 36' 38' 40' 42' 44' 46' 48' 50' <br />1 shade tree or 2 oranmental for every 50' linear feet <br />8 shubs for every 50' <br />Applicants are encouraged to retain existing natural vegetative buffers on sites being developed. Existing vegetation located in the required buffer area that meets the standards for plantings as listed in section 9 -6.5 may be <br />counted towards the required number of plantings. <br />Attachment number 2 \n <br />G -4 Page 344 <br />
