(a) For parking lots greater than 180 feet in either direction, provide intermediate and divider islands as shown above. Click here to view image
(b) For parking lots 180 feet or less in length (measured along length of aisle), provide intermediate islands as shown above.(3)Figure C: Parking Lot Design Standards Within Viewshed Overlay District. Click here to view image

Note b. See Design Standards for complete description of parking lot perimeter and internal landscape requirements.
Note c. Visitor parking may be allowed between building and viewshed sensitive receptor.

Rigid Geometry of Basin Layout Does Not Complement Natural Topography of Site.
(6)Figure F: Siting Buildings Within The Viewshed Overlay District. The intent is to utilize existing undeveloped woodland and/or natural topographic features to help visually screen the building from the viewshed sensitive receptor. The following criteria apply: (a) Where 'X' is equal to or greater than the height of the proposed building, a landscaped visual screen will be required on the side(s) of the building directly facing the sensitive receptor if the building is 2X or greater from the woodland edge. See974 CMR 3.06(7) Figure G for landscape screen design criteria.(b) Where 'X' is less than the height of the proposed building, (or no natural vegetative or topographic screen exists), a landscaped visual screen will be required.

(7)Figure G: Landscaped Visual Screen Within Viewshed Overlay District. (a) Where elevation is equal to Elevation C, trees shall be minimum four feet caliper with mature heights equal to or greater than A. Screen shall contain 25% of evergreen trees at ten feet height minimum. Click here to view image
(b) Where elevation B is lower than elevation C, tree caliper may be reduced by ½ inch or evergreen height can be reduced by 2.0 for every three feet of elevation to a min. Size of three feet cal. for deciduous trees, and six feet height for evergreen trees. Where elevation B is higher than elevation C, deciduous tree sizes shall be increased by ½ inch and evergreen tree height increased by two inches for every two feet of elevation difference.

Note a. A = Height of building. B = Finish grade at face(s) of building directly facing viewshed sensitive receptor. C = Elevation at base of tree where trunk meets finish grade.
Note b. The requirements in this figure may be waived by the DEC if sufficient existing vegitative or topotraphic screening can be utilized to the same effect.
Note c. Tree buffer shall extend full length of building facing sensitive receptor. Trees shall be spaced 20 feet on center minimum. Trees shall be in two staggered rows with five feet minimum offset.
(11)Figure K: Haybale Dike. Click here to view image
Note a. Bales shall be places in a row with ends tightly abutting the adjacent bales.
Note b. Bales shall be securely anchored in place by 2"x2" hardwood stakes or rebar driven through the bales to a depth of one foot six inches minimum below grade; the first stake in each bale shall be angled to force bales together.
Note c. Inspection shall be frequent and repair or replacement will be made promptly as needed throughout duration of contract.

Multiple Use Off-road Trail
Trails shall be designated primarily for pedestrian, bicycle, and equestrian use, as appropriate.
