In addition, landscape pockets have been included that will allow for the growth of mature trees at intervals along the northern border in order to create a lush landscape edge and buffer for the single family homes to the north. As part of its public outreach for the project, representatives of Fairhaven Memorial Park held community meetings to describe the project to the adjacent residents. At these meetings, the residents expressed their desire to retain the existing mature Italian Cypresses and to not have their existing masonry wall disturbed. The western project perimeter adjoins the existing Fairhaven North Garden constructed in the early 1990s. The existing chain link fence will be removed and the new cemetery property will be completely integrated with the existing North Garden including the continuation of the existing road which will provide a secondary entrance to the property from Cambridge Street. The southern perimeter of the project, adjacent to Fairhaven Avenue, will retain the existing London Plane street trees and replace as necessary. The perimeter fencing will be a continuation of the North Garden fencing that features open wrought iron with decorative masonry pilasters. A 35 -foot landscape setback will be included for the majority of the project frontage providing a thick landscape edge to soften the mausoleum buildings proposed for this location. The primary entry for the project will be located off of Fairhaven Avenue and will include a decorative colored concrete band at the entrance apron. The entry also will include a linear water feature leading to a decorative roundabout intersection feature, which will include a sculpture at its center.
