Each failure to comply with any of the provisions of this subchapter shall constitute an individual violation. The property owner, contractor and/or authorized agent shall be issued a violation notice and they shall then have a maximum of two (2) weeks to submit a restoration plan as described below. For projects that are under construction, a stop-work order will be issued when applicable and the issuance of and certificate of occupancy for any attendant structure(s) will be withheld until the restoration plan is submitted and approved by the Planning Division. This restoration plan shall, where applicable:
(A) Provide information as described in § 180.15.
(B) Identify the appropriate preservation practices as described in § 180.18.
(C) Identify the locations of new tree plantings to restore the site, providing:
(1) Each restoration tree shall be a minimum five (5) inch DBH trunk diameter nursery grown tree, and a minimum height of fifteen (15) feet and a minimum crown width of ten (10) feet, and the species shall be approved by the Planning Director.
(2) One (1) restoration tree as described above shall be shown for each six (6) inches of trunk diameter of those trees that were severely damaged, cut down or removed from the site.
(3) If the site has been cleared, and little evidence of the removed trees are present so as to determine the extent of the violation then it shall be assumed that eight (8) trees with six (6) inch trunk diameter existed per acre of disturbed area.
(D) Provide irrigation system or method for the maintenance of the new trees.
(E) Indicate a schedule for the restoration to occur which shall at the latest coincide with the final inspection for a site development where applicable or three (3) months where final inspections would not normally occur. If the restoration does not occur within the approved time schedule, each day of which the property is not in compliance shall constitute a violation of this subchapter and the violation shall be presented to the Enforcement Board for action.
