We have a lot of small to medium patches of grass that have multiple trees planted in them. Since the square footage for monoculture turf (grass) cannot be counted in this credit, how would I count trees that are planted in part of the site that has grass? Can I count the canopy cover in the square footage? Any advice would be appreciated.
Also the credit also states that other ecologically important site features can be counted other than planting that maintain or restore the ecological integrity of the site. We have many areas on the site where white coral bed with boulders will be. Can we count crushed coral in our sf calc?
