DM 21.1 Location of New Housing

  1. New housing should be located on suitable sites in or near identified residential areas. Within these areas a mix of appropriate residential and commercial uses will be permitted.
  2. New housing will only be permitted where development would not:
    • prejudice the primary business function of the City;
    • be contrary to policy DM 1.1;
    • inhibit the development potential or business activity in neighbouring commercial buildings and sites; and
    • result in poor residential amenity within existing and proposed development, including excessive noise or disturbance.
