CONCLUSION OF LANDSCAPE STANDARDS DISCUSSION <br />Executive Director Trevino summarized the key points of the prior Commission's <br />consensus with regards to the landscape standards. <br />The Commission discussed a plan to facilitate the development process while <br />maintaining consistency and quality. Commissioners would like different types of <br />landscape to promote creativity, provide for shade in parkways, layering, spacing of <br />trees, and a tree topping ordinance. Commissioners indicated that a better <br />approach would be to deal with context while other commissioners advocated <br />quality landscaping as opposed to quantity. The Commission expressed concerns <br />with the impacts of implementation (staff/additional administrative changes) and <br />enacting policy. The Commission promotes public education, comparison of other <br />cities and evaluating where the City can improve the existing standards. <br />Mr. Trevino announced that the Santa Ana Renaissance Specific Plan (SARSP) <br />will be released to the public on October 3. <br />Commission requested review of the Citywide Design Guidelines Chapter 9 - <br />Commercial Design Guidelines, a copy of the SARSP synopsis for comparison, <br />prior handouts regarding the Recommended Tree List and Various City Landscape <br />Standards comparison chart. <br />MOTION: Continue the item to September 24, 2007 <br />MOTION: <br />VOTE: AYES: <br />NOES: <br />ABSTAIN: <br />ABSENT: <br />F.
