Landscape, minimum 25% of the area within 4.5m of the revetment wall is planted with
shrubs. The attached plans have been corrected and a note included on sheet 2 of 4 to
note that 25% of this area is to be planted with shrubs.

Landscape, maximum of 25% of the areas within 4.5m of the revetment wall is under hard
pavement and the balance to be turf or ground cover.

We have adjusted this area and provide for a total of 26.57% of pavement within this area.
The remainder of the area is to be planted with lawn or ground cover.

Although we have not strictly met the codes requirement to limit the paving to 25%, the
design of the proposal is such that the landscape area between the proposed building and
the revetment wall is far greater than required and extends to 5.42m, 6.10m and up to
7.5m at the curved walls in set back, providing for an additional soft landscape area of
20m2. On this basis the percentage of paving versus soft landscaping is 21.6% well within
the codes requirements.

We have commissioned geotechnical engineers to carry out testing and prepare an
acid sulphate soil report. This will be forwarded to you under separate cover on
receipt.

further submission to allow approval of our application, please do not hesitate to contact me.
