Policy
Proposals for infill developments and within the existing urban areas should be designed to maximise land use and provide a mix of uses.
Policy
Where new local centres are included within proposals, they must be recognisable with a mix of land uses, local shops, community space or play area.
Policy
Applications are encouraged to provide new uses where those uses are not easily accessible as per U1.2.
Policy
Schemes should maximise land uses such as consolidating surface parking infrastructure into multi-storey car parks or car barns.
Policy
Developments should avoid being anonymous and solely functional (specifically large-volume, industrial/commercial/warehouse/ retail superstore/agricultural sheds) which encourage the use of the private car.
Policy
All new streets must be fronted by development with principal entrances, doors and windows addressing the public realm.
Policy
Local centres must contain areas active frontage that overlooks key pedestrian routes and the public realm. Inactive frontage length must not exceed 8m.
Policy
Active frontage to areas of public realm with entrances, windows, or active ground floor uses should be positioned to enable overlooking.
Policy
Activity inside buildings containing commercial or retail uses at ground floor should be visible from the public realm.
Policy
The principles of active frontage must not be compromised by car parking, commercial bins, service equipment and service entrances.
