Generally, the Historic Landmark Commission approves of Stage I Phase I, but as the Commission is unable to make a final decision regarding tree removal without a report from the Urban Forester, the applicant is to appear again before the Historic Landmark Commission once the Commission receives and reviews the tree removal report from the Salt Lake City Urban Forester. The applicant is to appear before the Commission on September 5, 2007.
Motion
Regarding Petition 470-07-27, Commissioner Carl made a motion to approve the request for design approval of Stage 1 of Phase 1 of the Pioneer Park Improvements as presented, deferring a decision upon the removal or replacement of trees until they have received and reviewed the report from the Urban Forester with the direction that the tree issue comes back to the full Commission for approval and subject to the following conditions as listed in the staff memorandum:
1. This approval is for design only and any major deviation from the proposed plan shall return to the Historic Landmark Commission for approval.
2. This approval is for Pioneer Park Improvements Phase I only, other phases shall be reviewed by the Historic Landmark Commission for review and approval.
3. If the Historic Landmark Commission determines that other design features are required, staff recommends that the Commission include those features as conditions of approval.
4. Construction may begin with the supervision and conditions approved by the attached Environmental Clearance Review, including the archaeological survey and monitoring plan by SWCA (See Exhibit A, Application Materials).
