57 Amenity

New development should respect the amenity of existing and future occupiers, neighbours and the surrounding area by:

A. Avoiding harmful impacts from overlooking, enclosure and/or the loss of privacy, outlook and daylight/sunlight;

B. Avoiding harmful impacts from poor microclimate conditions, air pollution, odour, noise and vibration and/or light pollution; and

C. Providing sufficient facilities for the storage, collection and disposal of refuse, considering the level and type of provision, its location, and any negative impacts it may have on visual amenity, access, health and security.
