RE: Birth Center landscape adjustment
Andy,
We considered that, but would rather not encumber the property with a utility line extending diagonally across the site.
Instead we'd prefer to run that wlin the PUE as shown. I'm confident we can come up with a nicer landscape treatment in
any case, and will keep you apprised on this and some other adjustments we are considering (e.g., accommodating an
abutting neighbors request for fencing, etc.). We did remove the old shed that bordered the south property line which is
leading us to think about possibly doing a different kind of boundary treatment (maybe clad chainlink with landscaping
instead of a solid wood fence, given that the old shed was tagged twice on the south side).
Regards,
Phil

RE: Birth Center landscape adjusbment
Thanks Philip, please keep me apprised of the preferred option for re-Iandscaping this area. If keeping the laurel hedge
is desired, an alternate routing of the water line through the property - using the former driveway alignment for
instance - also could be an option. It is my understanding that individual service lines can run directly to the structure
and don't necessarily have to follow the PUE alignment along the property frontage. Something to consider at least.

Subject: Birth Center landscape adjustment
Andy,
Just to let you know of a minor adjustment that will be necessary. Our approved landscape plan showed a portion of the
existing laurel hedge remaining on the northern/northwestern portion of the site's street frontage. But it is located just
behind the sidewalk r.o.w., and within the proposed 7' PUE. SUB Water came out to identify where their sleeve for water
service connection crosses the street- approximately at the NW corner of the site. However, for them to run the water
line extension within the PUE and provide service as shown on the approved plans, the remaining laurel hedge will have
to be removed.
We'll be conferred with our landscape designer later in the project to identify what landscape treatment will go in its place,
and provide you with proper documentation for your files. Apparently through the development and review of the SPR we
all missed the conflict between keeping the hedge and extending the water line within the PUE, but since this associated
with interior landscaping I don't think it should make any appreciable difference to the prior approvals.
By the way, we will be working with SUB to have the PUE location(s) properly documented and recorded. Following
recording I'll send copy to you for your files.
Please confirm that this approach is okay, and if you have any questions please let me know.
