Re: Barry University punch list for landscape and irrat4lon
installation, West Wing Dormitories and New Classroom.
Attn: Jose Rodriguez
Dear Jose:
After visiting the site today these are our comments:
WEST 'WING DORMITORIES
1. Landscape installation, plant material is in general
good, and met the specifications. The Pittosporum around
the A.0 units are - healthy and at this moment there are not
larger plants available, therefore we accepted it.
Mass of Jatropha has 58 plants instead of the 53 called on
the plans.
3. Ligustrum hedge along parking area has 38 plants instead
of 40, but since more Jatropha were planted we notified
Mr. Palmer about the discrepancie we both decided that
the extra Jatrophas (5) price wise make it up for the
missing Ligustrums.
4. There is one missing Ixora Nora Brant at the cluster
close to the building entrance. We request from the
landscape contractor the installatiain of this plant, PI"
the Black Diamont Edge Divider at this area.
5. Replace a dead Mahogany Tree, area across from the AC
units.
6. There are two Mahoganies that are questionable, one is
coming back slowly, first tree at the berm area, if this
tree does not shoe signs of healthy foliage should be
replaced within 4 weeks. The other tree is the very lanst
one along the berm, this tree should be defoliated
immediately, since it looks infested, if the new leaves
start sprouting with the same sickly look the tree should
be replaced.

7. General ccsmmemt s :
a. Guy wire all trees and stake palms.
b. Rake all stones from shrub beds and remove all weeds.
c. Add mulch in all planting beds and around all trees
as shown in the construction detail sheet.
d. Remove all dead fronds and branches from palms and
trees. Provide maximum of clear trunk.
e. Cover all wounds with Ortho to avoid infestation.
f. Replace dead sod in some areas, as discussed with
Mr. Palmer.
g. Destroy all fire ants nests, berm area.
h. Install any missing sod.
i. Remove ropes or tagging ribbons.
Recommendations:
A layer of coarse river sand should be spreaded in front of
the building entrance, both sides and around some very low
points around the berm to provide better drainage for the sod
increasing the thickness of the soil between the finish grade
and the sod.
Install concrete curb to protect sodded areas of cars
crossing it.
Irrigation system should be shut off for one week - to allow
the soil to get dry. After thks=! the timer should be set
every other day, dayly only durklini dry season.
NEW CLASROOMS:
:1. Same comments apply related to the plant material.
2 . Podocarpus trees were called as 15 gallon, 6' ht, and they
were 15 gallons but only 4' ht. However the Architects,
Mr. Palmer and myself agreed that we were willing to
accept them, since the Pongam trees were much taller,
in fact twice the size that the one called on the plans.
3. There are 8 Hibiscus standard missing, and two Ixora
Super King.
4. The six Jerusalem Thorn tree were in bad condition, only
one was still with enough green bark, this tree usually
suffers quite a bit with transplanting, therefore we gave
landscape contractor 4 weeks to replace the trees if they
do not carne back.
5. General notes will apply here too.
6. The mound in front of the front area must be removes since
it was in the wrong place.
7. There are some missing sprinkler heads, which should be
installed and the sprinklers along the roadway must be
tied to the system, as shown on plans, to provide water to
the new Ppngam trees.
8. Sprinkler heads along the building, shrub bed, were'
. suposed to go on risere, however since the irrigation
contractor used the 04 nozzles, instead 7 06R, , - the 02, it will
be acceptable.
The guarantee for all plant material start today and extend
as called in the specifications. Same apply to the
irrigation system.
During this site inspection were present at the site Joe
Palmer from Barry University, the landscape contractor
Bernie Ortega, the irrigation contractor, Jose I. Navarrete
the field manager from Milton and myself.
Let me know if 1 can be of any further assistance.
Sincerely,
Laura M. Lleren F.C./R.S.L.A., A.P.A.
President
