S5 Infrastructure

All new development must provide appropriate on- and off‐site infrastructure (in accordance with the Infrastructure Delivery Plan) in order to:

  • avoid placing additional burden on the existing community
  • avoid or mitigate adverse social, economic and environmental impacts and
  • make good the loss or damage of social, economic and environmental assets.

In planning for new development, appropriate regard will be given to existing deficiencies in services and infrastructure provision. Development proposals must demonstrate that these have been taken into account when determining the infrastructure requirements for the new development. Development proposals must provide sufficient bin storage.

The provision of infrastructure should be linked directly to the phasing of development to ensure that infrastructure is provided in a timely and comprehensive manner to support new development.

Where an applicant advises that a proposal is unviable in light of the infrastructure requirement(s), open book calculations verified by an independent consultant approved by the council will need to be provided by the applicant and be submitted to the council for its consideration.
