   (a)   Credit for Retained Mature Trees. For any given property, each mature tree that is at least eight (8) inches in diameter at breast height, that is protected from construction activities, and that is retained onsite shall reduce the minimum required new tree plantings by three (3) new trees. For example, if a development would be required to plant ten (10) trees but retains two (2) mature trees over eight (8) inches in diameter at breast height, the minimum required new tree plantings would be reduced from ten (10) new trees to four (4) new trees.
