I am attatching two PDF Site Plans. These were sent to me by ODOT late last week.
You will see close to 375 new trees are planned.
7 different style deciduous trees.
2 different style evergreen trees.
Additions incorporated into the plans after the last meeting with neighborhood stakeholders.
1) Dead and potentially hazardous trees will be removed. (Trees that have the possibility to fall or are growing at a severe angle) Additional new trees will replace these locations on a one to one basis. (These locations are not counted in the site plan totals).
2) Provide a 3-foot clear zone along the property fenceline. A row of ornamental plants will be planted parallel to the fence. The site plan show a minimum of 126 Lilac and Viburnium shrubs to be planted.
3) A two foot wide strip will be provided at each of the four corners of the overpasses on Kenilworth and Starkweather parallel to the fence. This is to be used as flower beds, and can be seen from the street level.
All in all this project will beautify the community.
I have no update official update from ODOT relating to the Brooklyn Centre project. You may want to contact Mark Carpenter at ODOT to see if he can fill you in on the status in that area.
His email is : Mark [dot] Carpenter [at] dot [dot] state [dot] oh [dot] us
