Monica,
Thank you for your comments as well as the pictures that you have provided. You have been added as a
party of record for this project and your comments have been added to the official file for consideration
by the decision maker. Regarding the trees behind your home, the applicant has proposed to retain a
large swath of trees in that area. I have attached a copy of the tree retention plan, which on sheet 2
shows all the trees that are proposed to be retained. A retaining wall is proposed to the north of those
protected trees. Due to the tree retention proposed adjacent to your property, there should not be any
grading that would impact your lot.
All submitted documents for this project are available at the following link:

Please let me know if you have further questions.
Thanks,

Jill Ding,
My concern regarding this short plat is how it will affect my property. The Sumpter property is higher
than mine. Will the owner be building a retaining wall?
I assume the trees in back of me will be cut down. What about the remaining tree in the retention pond.
The Sumpter trees are are part of their root system and will likely fall in a storm. Will that tree be cut
down also?
