• Issue the PRS at the initial pre- app meeting

• Use the benchmark street designs, the hard landscape spec and planting spec in pre-apps to establish a clear requirement.

• Ensure application drawings include streetlights, lighting cones and visibility splays to avoid removal of trees post granting of permission. 3. Application design evaluation
