The document discusses proposed amendments to non-residential landscaping and buffer standards in the UDO. Key points of the amendments include increasing credits for water-conserving irrigation systems from 10% to 20%; increasing points for Texas native plants by 50%; doubling points for retaining older/larger trees; allowing flexibility to waive buffers adjacent to residential common areas and floodplains; removing double landscape point requirements for plots over 10 acres; and requiring buffers based on adjacent use rather than zoning district. The amendments aim to incentivize water conservation and retention of mature trees. A timeline of the amendment process is also provided.
