             3.1.   Green Spaces as Built Plans Evaluation

                PPN and S2CP were renewed in a different way respecting the context. PPN was renewed with
             major  process  which  is  involving  acreage  extension  (refer  figure  3.1).  The  extension  was  due  to
             larger green space in demand by users. Based on the findings from PPN plan evaluation, the Carbon
             Footprint  Factor  Contributor  (CFFC)  was  scrutinized  referring  to  the  acreage  extension  works.
             Currently  the  stage  of  extension  works  is  at  the  conception  stage.  The  implementation  will
             commence soon. Once the works commenced, the CFFC will involving the green space conception
             (planning),  implementation  (construction),  and  maintenance  (establishment).  Based  on  the  plan
             evaluation, PPN design characteristics that increase carbon footprint are the field. This is because
             the field is needed to be maintained to avoid tall grass. The lawn mower will be used to trim the turf.
             The frequency of mowing a lawn will determine the carbon footprint scenario [2].
