The applicant may apply this option to up to 50% of the required number of replacement trees; all requests to make contributions in lieu of planting replacement trees in excess of 50% of the required number of replacement trees must be approved by the Board. F. Where an applicant claims that the cost of the required number of replacement trees, as determined by the formula in this section, would impose a development cost that exceeds 5% of the total bonded improvement cost on development of the site, the Board may, at its discretion, reduce the required number of replacement trees. In support of such a claim, the applicant shall submit written cost estimates from three sources for Board review.
