§ 425.070. Supplemental Standards For Land Disturbance.  


Latest version.
  • A. 
    The tree preservation requirements of this Chapter may not be altered or waived by the Building Commissioner or by the Planning and Zoning Commission, except as necessary for construction pursuant to a planned development, conditional use permit, approved subdivision plat or approved final site plan specifically authorizing such modification and then only to the extent necessary to complete the approved construction or use. A permit or approval may be conditioned upon the replacement, restoration or relocation of trees or vegetation on the site in an amount or quality sufficient to offset or ameliorate any loss resulting from land disturbance.
    B. 
    Any alteration or waiver of the requirements of this Chapter shall not be deemed "necessary" where reasonable changes in design or construction or use location or construction technique could reduce or eliminate the amount of tree disturbance.
    C. 
    In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Chapter and other requirements of the City of Frontenac with respect to tree preservation, the most restrictive requirement shall govern.
