A. Intent/Purpose. The purpose of this Section is to promote
the public health, safety, comfort and general welfare of St. Charles
County residents by providing tree preservation standards. These standards
are designed to enhance the quality and appearance of developed properties,
protect existing natural resources, buffer differing land uses and
conserve the value of land and buildings throughout St. Charles County.
These standards will also increase energy efficiency through shading
and cooling, filter air pollution, filter and assist in the management
of stormwater runoff, buffer noise and wind and provide wildlife habitat
as well as pleasant visual relief.
[Ord. No. 20-098, 12-21-2020]
B. Applicability. These standards will apply to all new residential
developments in unincorporated St. Charles County except the following:
1. Individual single-family residences, not in a proposed and/or existing
subdivision;
2. Individual two-family residences, not in a proposed and/or existing
subdivision;
3. Developments within the "A", "RM", "RF", "CO", "C1", "C2", "HTCD",
"I1", "I2" or "SWD" zoning districts.

plan shall be depicted on the final plat. A note shall also be provided
to reference any tree preservation areas stating: "There shall be
no clearing, grading, filling, construction activities or disturbance
in any tree preservation areas".
D. Tree Preservation Requirements.
1. Subject to paragraph (2), below, all developments shall meet a minimum
tree preservation requirement of ten percent (10%) of the site or
twenty-five percent (25%) of existing woodlands and trees as they
existed three (3) years prior to submittal of the Preliminary Plat;
whichever is greater. If the total area of trees on the site is equal
to or less than ten percent (10%) of the total site area, fifty percent
(50%) of the existing trees shall be retained. The preservation of
existing trees must be depicted on the tree preservation plan. Existing
woodlands and trees may be determined by using aerial photographs
or field inventory. No credit will be given to a tree or any portion
of a tree canopy that is not located on the subject property.
2. The Director of Community Development may waive all or part of the requirements imposed by paragraph (1), above, provided that the Director or his designee, based on his/her physical inspection of the property to be developed, determines that strict compliance with those requirements would render the property undevelopable. A replacement ratio of three (3) trees to each tree destroyed, damaged or removed is required to be planted in the development per the requirements of Subsections
(G) and
(H). The final ten percent (10%) of the performance guarantee of the required erosion control plan will be held until all tree preservation requirements have been met.

E. Protective Methods. To receive preservation credit, trees
to be preserved must be protected from direct and indirect root damage
and trunk and crown disturbance. No credit will be allowed for any
dead tree, any tree in poor health or any tree subjected to grade
alterations. The death of any tree used for preservation credit shall
require the owner to replace the tree. The following standards shall
apply:
1. The protection area around trees shall include all land within the
canopy drip line. This area shall remain free of all grading and filling
activities.
2. Construction site activities such as parking, material storage, soil
stock piling and concrete washout shall not be permitted within tree
protection areas.
3. Tree protection areas should be clearly identified prior to any land
disturbance. Methods that may be used include snow fence, polyethylene,
chain link fence, construction stakes placed every fifteen (15) feet,
or other measure as approved in writing by the Director of the Division
of Development Review.

tree protection areas are disturbed during construction, a replacement
ratio of three (3) trees to each tree destroyed, damaged or removed
is required to be planted in the development. The final ten percent
(10%) of the performance guarantee of the required erosion control
plan will be held until all tree preservation requirements have been
met.
G. Materials. A mixture of native, hardy deciduous, flowering
and/or coniferous trees may be planted.

record subdivision plat, the subdivider, or a contractor for the subdivider,
must:
1. Either complete the improvements, under the inspection of the appropriate
inspecting agency and in accordance with the approved improvement
plans, and post a performance guarantee for ten percent (10%) of the
estimated sum; or
2. Post a performance guarantee ensuring or guaranteeing the installation
of all said improvements.
B. If
the performance guarantee is a lender's or escrow agreement, that
agreement shall:
1.
Be prepared on forms developed by the Director of the Division
of Development Review and approved by the County Counselor and be
signed by the Director of the Division of Development Review and County
Registrar;
2. Ensure or guarantee the construction and completion of all the improvements
as set forth in the approved improvement plans based on the cost estimate
prepared by the consulting engineer and approved by the Director of
the Division of Development Review; and

at offices in St. Charles County, the City of St. Louis or Missouri
counties contiguous to St. Charles County and the funds shall be subject
to the audit of St. Charles County.

check, the subdivider, or a contractor for the subdivider, and the
County shall enter into a fully executed deposit agreement prepared
on forms developed by the Director of the Division of Development
Review and approved by the County Counselor and signed by the Director
of the Division of Development Review and the County Registrar, which
shall require the subdivider and/or contractor to fulfill the obligations
imposed in this Section. A standby letter of credit may be prepared
on forms provided by the financial institution on which it is drawn
but must be approved by the County Counselor and must, at a minimum,
provide for:
1.
Drafts to be drawn at offices in St. Charles County, the City
of St. Louis or Missouri counties contiguous to St. Charles County;
and

Automatic extensions without amendment for additional one-year
terms unless, at least forty-five (45) days prior to the letter's
then-current expiration date, the financial institution issuing the
letter gives written notice of non-renewal to St. Charles County's
Department of Community Development by registered or certified mail
or by overnight courier.
D. Any performance guarantee shall be administered as follows:
1.
The estimated sum shall be held by the escrow holder, lender
or the County Director of Finance as the agreement provided until
such time as the Director of the Division of Development Review authorizes
release of funds as provided herein. Authorization shall be written
and addressed to the escrow holder, lender or Director of Finance.
The Director of the Division of Development Review may authorize release
for disbursement by the escrow holder, lender or Director of Finance
per line item of the approved cost estimate as items are completed
and inspected and, in the event of delays caused by unforeseen circumstances
such as weather, may also authorize partial releases based upon partial
completion. At no time will the amount to be released depreciate the
account to less than the cost of completing said remaining improvements.
This sum shall be determined by using current market value of the
materials and labor. In no case shall the escrow holder, lender or
County release more than ninety percent (90%) of the estimated sum
until improvements and installations have been completed in a satisfactory
manner in accordance with the subdivision regulations and approved
by the County Engineer and the Director of the Division of Development
Review. The remaining ten percent (10%) of all said improvements shall
be released upon acceptance of all public improvements by the Governing
Body or final approval of all private improvements by the Director
of the Division of Development Review. The estimated sum shall be
held by the surety or the County as in the agreement provided, until
such time as the Director of the Division of Development Review shall,
by written authorization addressed to the surety or the County Director
of Finance, release the total sum.

have been met, all the streets and storm sewers and storm sewer structures
to be publicly maintained located within the right-of-way or a recorded
easement have been approved by the Governing Body, and all private
improvements have been approved by the Director of the Division of
Development Review.
3.
Upon request of the person posting the performance guarantee,
the Director of the Division of Development Review shall release funds
for any completed line item of the work within thirty (30) days after
the County inspects such work, provided the inspection report does
not note any deficiencies in such work. Inspections for partial release
requests shall be completed within a reasonable period of time, and,
if such inspections do not note any deficiencies in the completed
portions of the work, the County shall make corresponding releases
of funds promptly.
4.
In the event that the improvements are not satisfactorily completed
within two (2) years after approval of the improvement plans, the
Director of the Division of Development Review has the right to remove
said monies to complete the guaranteed improvements, unless an extension
in time is granted by the Director of Community Development.
