2.0 SITE & LANDSCAPE
Plantings, particularly along house foundations, are to appear informal and loose rather than formal and patterned.
Planting materials are to be thoughtfully placed to obscure views of the garage and driveway. Plant materials may be combined with wire fencing to create a “living” fence. Planting of trees must take into consideration views from adjoining Homesites. e use of large scale palms or large canopy trees where views from adjoining Homesites would be impacted are not permitted.
Planting and/or revegetation efforts within Natural Areas is to be limited to native and/or well-adapted plant species. Non-native plants are to be kept in courtyards, gardens and other outdoor areas close to the home. A gradual transition to all native species should occur as one moves away from the house towards the Natural Area.
All areas disturbed by construction shall be revegetated with an approved native seed and shrub mixes.
View corridors may be designated from time to time (e.g., between side yard setbacks and property lines on oceanfront lots) as shown on Homesites Diagrams, subdivision plans, individual lots plans or as otherwise defined in these Guidelines. Tree removals and pruning within these view corridors may be permitted following DRB review and approval. Plant material located within view corridors may not exceed six (6) feet above the highest grade elevation along the view corridor. Plant material located within a Single Story Structure Zone may not exceed the maximum wall height. Height of mature vegetation proposed for location within view corridors must be noted on landscape plans.
