  Site layout and building and landscape design—                        Existing site trees and landscape features such as rock
  (a)    provides for soft landscaping to be established in and         outcrops are integrated into the development wherever
         around the development;                                        possible.
  (b)    maximises the retention of large canopy trees;
         minimises the extent of impervious paved areas;                AO2.2
