The basement is not identified as a storey and is therefore exempt from the GFA calculations as per the
administrative definition.

The revised ground floor GFA plan is provided in Figure 2. Of note, no amendments are proposed to the
architectural design and the GFA remains unchanged. However, the private open space areas are now
annotated to clearly distinguish between areas included in the GFA calculation and those excluded. Based on
the above, the private open space areas are excluded from the GFA calculations.

4        Landscaping
The areas shown as soft landscaping on the Soft Landscaping Area Plan, shown on drawing number AR 20.01,
predominantly appears to be grassed areas with hard landscaping treatments such as ‘stepped’ paving
and court areas. Considering the size of the site, more of the soft landscaping areas should be capable of
being landscaped with trees or shrubs to soften the built form and provide screening to surrounding land
uses.

Furthermore, having the pool built to the boundary also results in a predominance of hard landscaping
along the eastern side boundary.

Information Required

    4.   Confirm that the development achieves at least 20% of the site area as true soft landscaping in
         accordance with the administrative definition and provide more meaningful areas along the side
         boundaries that can support the establishment and growth of trees and shrubs.
