40 Development within Zone 6 (a)

(1) Consent must not be granted to the carrying out of development on land within Zone 6 (a), unless the consent authority has considered—

(a) the need for the proposed development on that land, and

(b) the impact of the proposed development on the existing or likely future use of the land, and

(c) the need to retain the land for its existing or likely future use.

(2) Consent must not be granted to the subdivision of land of which any land within Zone 6 (a) forms part, unless the land within Zone 6 (a) is included in the plan of subdivision as a proposed separate allotment.

(3) Notwithstanding subclause (2), where the topography of the land to be subdivided makes it necessary, consent may be granted to allow registration of a plan of subdivision in which the boundaries of an allotment referred to in that subclause do not correspond precisely with the boundaries of the land within Zone 6 (a) as shown on the zoning map, but which depart from those boundaries only to a minor extent.
