Committee Review The Environmental Design Committee provided comments that were forwarded to the property owner and landscape team. The committee recommended that a row of shrubs be extended along the southern property boundary. The project applicant has reported that they have worked with the adjacent neighbor with regard to the screening along the southern boundary and the extension is not necessary for screening. Neighbor Issues A neighbor at 26990 Orchard Hill Lane, Alexander Atkins has presented concerns to staff regarding site drainage, proposed screening, existing vegetation in the sanitary sewer easement and the existing Eucalyptus trees on site and in the adjacent right of way. The following is a summary of Mr. Atkins issues (email correspondence Attachment 8): Site Drainage-Mr. Atkins has commented that the seasonal swale along the front of the subject property is obstructed by a fence and screen that can clog with debris and cause flooding in the surrounding area. According to a survey of the property, the subject fence is located entirely on the neighbor's property at 26005 Newbridge Drive. The project applicant has been made aware of this issue and has reported that they intend to work with their neighbor to keep the drainage swale clear of debris.
