(a) Residential Streets.
(1) Street trees (those trees planted within the street right-of-way) shall be required per South Euclid's City Tree Ordinance. All street tree-planting plans, including size, species and location, shall be submitted to the City Landscape Architect for approval and approval by the City's Tree Commission may be required as well.
(2) Street trees shall be located in a planting strip between the street and the sidewalk. If this is not possible due to lack of right-of-way, narrow existing planting strip, or other reason as deemed appropriate by the City Arborist, street trees may be planted at the back of sidewalk but no farther than ten feet from the right-of-way.
(3) To minimize conflicts with overhead and underground utilities, the size of the street trees shall be selected so as to minimize conflict with overhead utilities.
(b) Nonresidential Streets. This section applies to all commercial, institutional, industrial, or other nonresidential land uses.
(1) Corridor Buffer. A Type C buffer per Section 771.50, Schedule 3, shall be provided behind the street right-of-way. The streetscape landscaping shall be provided in addition to any landscaping, such as perimeter parking lot plantings, required of this Chapter.
