Impact analysis
Added landscaping cost falls on the developer, not the city.
Phase 8 homeowners, North Road neighbors like Mr. Meyerhoffer, and residents who value tree cover and neighborhood character.
The developer bears added expense; some argue prior Symphony Bay phases are treated inconsistently.
