19 Village—Neighbourhood Centre zone

19 Village—Neighbourhood Centre zone

The objectives for the Village—Neighbourhood Centre zone are as follows—

(a) To encourage a range of local convenience shopping facilities and associated commercial and community activities.

(b) To encourage a mix of residential land uses in association with a primarily commercial or retail land use.

(c) To direct future major commercial, retail and professional services to the village areas, thereby discouraging ribbon development along major arterial roads.

(d) To ensure that development contributes to the creation of a distinct village identity.

(e) To ensure that the non-residential uses are environmentally compatible with the residential uses and do not unreasonably affect the residential amenity within the zone as a result of factors such as operating hours, noise, loss of privacy, and pedestrian and vehicular traffic.

(f) To promote high quality urban design of built forms.
