B New Residential Medium Density Objective It is an objective to provide for
new residential development, associated facilities and services. The new
residential zone relates to c157ha of lands in 4 distinct areas of the town
where it is envisaged that new communities will develop throughout the life of
the plan. The areas are intended primarily for housing but may also include a
range of other uses particularly those such as schools, crèches and community
buildings. A master plan framework will be required for all sites over 2ha in
size detailing layout of services, open spaces, roads, pedestrian linkages and
landscaping. An adequate amount of land has been zoned in the draft plan to
cater for the projected residential development requirements of the town over
the plan period.
DEVLOPMENT POTENTIAL- Given the lands
size, proximity to the town centre, zoning and access to mains services, this
parcel of lands offers excellent short to long development potential for a
substantial residential development subject to the unusual consents.
