§ 7.500. Native Plant Materials.

Purpose. These regulations are intended to establish procedures that insure the preservation of indigenous plant materials as specified below. These specified materials are found to enhance the City's physical and aesthetic character, contribute to the preservation of the fragile desert environment by preventing erosion and providing wildlife habitat, increase valuation of real property, and provide scenic opportunities unique to this region. Preservation of these specified plant materials is found to be a part of the General Plan and is found to be in the furtherance of the public health, safety and welfare.

This section shall establish a procedure for the review and approval of native plant programs in conjunction with the native plant permit process established in Chapter 46, Article V, of the Scottsdale Revised Code. The provisions of this section shall supplement the applicable provisions of the Scottsdale Revised Code, and shall not be construed as replacing, modifying, or invalidating those provisions.
