Advice required Continued

   1.3. The landscaping plan to reflect any changes required as a result of the
        engineering advice required below;
   1.4. Minimise the width of the driveway crossover;
   1.5. Explore opportunities to provide a garden or turf between the driveway and the
        guest walkway at the front boundary/ road reserve ensuring pedestrian access
        along the road verge area;

Response
The landscape design reflects the changes as a result of engineer’s redesign (reduced
width and configuration) of the driveway crossover. Landscape zone of turf added to
separate pedestrian and vehicle pavements. Please refer to updated landscape
documentation package and perspective for detail.

   1.6. Provide taller species for better screening behind and beside the signage wall;
   1.7. Replace kentia palms with Archontophoenix cunninghamiana Bangalow Palm.
        Palm tree plantings are preferred in groups as indicated in PSP 3 Landscaping
        Plants and Guidelines.
   1.8. The use of Pandanus within the site is acceptable but not in the road reserve.

Response
Please refer to the frontage perspective. Kentia palms replaced with Pandanus species
within the site. Please refer to updated landscape documentation package for detail.

   1.9. Deep planted feature shade tree to the eastern end (near front boundary) of the
        planter separating the driveway from the guest walkway. May have to reduce the
        size of the raised planter to provide sufficient planting space.

Response
A proposed tree in this location was previously considered but had clashed with the
entry site lines and overall safety. A trellis, raised planter and other design elements
were introduced to provide the benefits of a tree without the above safety issues.

   1.10.      Explore opportunities to provide deep planted feature shade trees in the
       following locations;
      1.10.1. In front of the stairs to the podium;

Response
There are 37no. plants proposed adjacent the stair wall in an in ground garden with 10
no. proposed climbers to be attached to a trellis. This is to offer a solid green wall within
the limited width and not to impose on the driveway. The remaining plants are
groundcovers and shrubs to fill out the front of the garden to buffer the edge of the
driveway. Please refer to the landscape documentation package for detail.

       1.10.2. Between the visitor parking and tennis court;

Response
There is a constant line of deep planted feature shade trees along this extent with (large)
shrubs and groundcovers. Please refer to the landscape documentation package and
perspective for detail.
