Master Street Tree Plan for Parma Heights, Ohio
Revised January 2024
A master planting design is intended to give guidelines for planting the future
urban forest. The information contained in this document is based on data
collected in an Urban Site Index survey conducted in the fall of 2023.
Change is constant. Nurseries are developing new and better selections of trees
than the ones available at the time of re vision. Individual planting sites are being
impacted by construction and human activity. The climate is in transition. Tree
species selected at the time of revision may become less suited for the site
selected and new species not appropriate at time of revision may become
appropriate. The master planting design needs to be a living document evolving
over time, adapting to the changing conditions.
The segment index is arranged in the streets' alphabetical order and the
approximate block in ascending order. When the block number is zero, there were
no house numbers on the segment, all the planting sites are in side yards. The first
cross street is the northern or western end of the se gme nt. The second cross
street is the southern or eastern end of the segment. When a number is used for a
cross street the segment begins or ends at the house number.

Article 34 Required Use of American Iron, Steel, Manufactured Products, and
Construction Materials
Recipients of an award of Federal financial assistance from a program for
infrastructure are hereby notified that none of the funds provided under this
award may be used for a project for infrastructure unless: (1) all iron and steel
used in the project are produced in the United States—this means all
manufacturing processes, from the initial melting stage through the application
of coatings, occurred in the United States; (2) all manufactured products used
in the project are produced in the United States—this means the manufactured
product was manufactured in the United States; and the cost of the
components of the manufactured product that are mined, produced, or
manufactured in the United States is greater than 55 percent of the total cost of
all components of the manufactured product, unless another standard for
determining the minimum amount of domestic content of the manufactured
product has been established under applicable law or regulation; and (3) all
construction materials are manufactured in the United States—this means that
all manufacturing processes for the construction material occurred in the
United States. The Buy America preference only applies to articles, materials,
and supplies that are consumed in, incorporated into, or affixed to an
infrastructure project. As such, it does not apply to tools, equipment, and
supplies, such as temporary scaffolding, brought to the construction site and
removed at or before the completion of the infrastructure project. Nor does a
Buy America preference apply to equipment and furnishings, such as movable
chairs, desks, and portable computer equipment, that are used at or within the
finished infrastructure project but are not an integral part of the structure or
permanently affixed to the infrastructure project. Waivers When necessary,
recipients may apply for, and the agency may grant, a waiver from these
requirements. The agency should notify the recipient for information on the
process for requesting a waiver from these requirements. (a) When the Federal
agency has determined that one of the following exceptions applies, the
awarding official may waive the application of the domestic content
procurement preference in any case in which the agency determines that: (1)
applying the domestic content procurement preference would be inconsistent
with the public interest; (2) the types of iron, steel, manufactured products, or
construction materials are not produced in the United States in sufficient and
reasonably available quantities or of a satisfactory quality; or (3) the inclusion
of iron, steel, manufactured products, or construction materials produced in the
United States will increase the cost of the overall project by more than 25
percent. A request to waive the application of the domestic content
procurement preference must be in writing. The agency will provide
instructions on the format, contents, and supporting materials required for any
waiver request. Waiver requests are subject to public comment periods of no
less than 15 days and must be reviewed by the Made in America Office. There
may be instances where an award qualifies, in whole or in part, for an existing
waiver described at “Buy America” Preference in FEMA Financial Assistance
Programs for Infrastructure | FEMA.gov. Definitions The definitions applicable
to this term are set forth at 2 C.F.R. § 184.3, the full text of which is

Article 42 Environmental Planning and Historic Preservation (EHP) Review
DHS/FEMA funded activities that may require an Environmental Planning and
Historic Preservation (EHP) review are subject to the FEMA EHP review
process. This review does not address all federal, state, and local
requirements. Acceptance of federal funding requires the recipient to comply
with all federal, state and local laws. DHS/FEMA is required to consider the
potential impacts to natural and cultural resources of all projects funded by
DHS/FEMA grant funds, through its EHP review process, as mandated by: the
National Environmental Policy Act; National Historic Preservation Act of 1966,
as amended; National Flood Insurance Program regulations; and any other
applicable laws and executive orders. General guidance for FEMA’s EHP
process is available on the DHS/FEMA Website at:
https://www.fema.gov/grants/guidance-tools/environmental-historic. Specific
applicant guidance on how to submit information for EHP review depends on
the individual grant program and applicants should contact their grant Program
Officer to be put into contact with EHP staff responsible for assisting their
specific grant program. The EHP review process must be completed before
funds are released to carry out the proposed project; otherwise, DHS/FEMA
may not be able to fund the project due to noncompliance with EHP laws,
executive orders, regulations, and policies. If ground disturbing activities occur
during construction, applicant will monitor ground disturbance, and if any
potential archaeological resources are discovered the applicant will
immediately cease work in that area and notify the pass-through entity, if
applicable, and DHS/FEMA.
Article 43 Applicability of DHS Standard Terms and Conditions to Tribes
The DHS Standard Terms and Conditions are a restatement of general
requirements imposed upon recipients and flow down to sub-recipients as a
matter of law, regulation, or executive order. If the requirement does not apply
to Indian tribes or there is a federal law or regulation exempting its application
to Indian tribes, then the acceptance by Tribes of, or acquiescence to, DHS
Standard Terms and Conditions does not change or alter its inapplicability to
an Indian tribe. The execution of grant documents is not intended to change,
alter, amend, or impose additional liability or responsibility upon the Tribe
where it does not already exist.
Article 44 Acceptance of Post Award Changes

procedures.
Article 46 Prior Approval for Modification of Approved Budget
Before making any change to the FEMA approved budget for this award, you
must request prior written approval from FEMA where required by 2 C.F.R.
section 200.308. For purposes of non-construction projects, FEMA is utilizing
its discretion to impose an additional restriction under 2 C.F.R. section
200.308(f) regarding the transfer of funds among direct cost categories,
programs, functions, or activities. Therefore, for awards with an approved
budget where the federal share is greater than the simplified acquisition
threshold (currently $250,000), you may not transfer funds among direct cost
categories, programs, functions, or activities without prior written approval
from FEMA where the cumulative amount of such transfers exceeds or is
expected to exceed ten percent (10%) of the total budget FEMA last approved.
For purposes of awards that support both construction and non-construction
work, FEMA is utilizing its discretion under 2 C.F.R. section 200.308(h)(5) to
require the recipient to obtain prior written approval from FEMA before making
any fund or budget transfers between the two types of work. You must report
any deviations from your FEMA approved budget in the first Federal Financial
Report (SF-425) you submit following any budget deviation, regardless of
whether the budget deviation requires prior written approval.
Article 47 Indirect Cost Rate
2 C.F.R. section 200.211(b)(15) requires the terms of the award to include the
indirect cost rate for the federal award. If applicable, the indirect cost rate for
this award is stated in the budget documents or other materials approved by
FEMA and included in the award file.
Article 48 Award Performance Goals

number of items requested in its application, the numbers acquired (ordered,
paid, and received) within the period of performance. In order to measure
performance, FEMA may request information throughout the period of
performance. In its final performance report submitted at closeout, the recipient
is required to report on the recipients compliance with the applicable industry,
local, state and national standards described in the NOFO.
