The delineation identified 4.9 acres of wetlands and 478 linear feet of intermittent tributary. IES conducted both a delineation and a cultural resources survey on the site early in the design process. The High School #2 site was identified early as it was the only available 100-acre sized property located in Prosper ISD southern attendance zone. Based on this increasing demand Prosper ISD determined that there was an immediate need for additional high school campuses. The Town of Prosper has been experiencing significant growth through the past few years, which has put considerable pressure on Prosper Independent School District (ISD) to keep up with the increasing demand for school capacity. Prosper Independent School District High School #2 IES evaluated each tree based on size, condition, location, and species quality and provided a detailed spreadsheet for mitigation cost for each specific tree. The current Fact Sheet utilizes the Trunk Formula Appraisal method, which was published in the 1992 Guide for Plant Appraisal. IES prepared a tree appraisal following the Texas A&M University Extension Service Fact Sheet for Evaluation of Texas Shade Trees. This triggered the tree appraisal requirements under the Town of Crossroads ordinance to determine tree mitigation. The proposed site plan intended on removing 112 trees. This baseline document was provided to the client in an AutoCAD format, MS Excel worksheet, and letter report, which was used to determine the proposed impacts to the trees.
IES utilized a Trimble sub-meter accurate GPS unit to record the location and all attributes on 780 protected trees that totaled 11,116.8 caliper inches.
The survey included measuring, recording the species, evaluating the health, and tagging all protected trees on the 39-acre site.
