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].
