Add the following text in italics to Sec, 20-488 for clarification purposes:
Commercial sites with enhanced landscaping
15% Minimum ...
... Open space requirements for an individual commercial site that is part of a larf!er master
planned proiect mav be reduced by ten (JO) percent. This is to offset the placement ofrequifed
retention to serve the individual commercial site in a common, centralized retention area
desif!ned to serve the overall larger proiect. The common retention area would be considered
"off site" to the individual commercial site. In such cases, the landscape requirements associated
with the ten (JO) percent open space waived will be retained on the individual commercial site in
