20 Village—Tourist zone

The objectives for the Village—Tourist zone are as follows—

(a) To allow opportunities for the development of a variety of tourist-orientated land uses and services within a predominantly residential area.

(b) To allow for the consolidation of tourism-related land uses in existing major tourism precincts in the Blue Mountains.

(c) To ensure that development contributes to a strengthening of the landscape character and visual setting along significant tourist routes.

(d) To retain and enhance the established traditional streetscape character and heritage values, including mature vegetation and gardens, that contribute to the attraction of the area for residents and visitors.

(e) To ensure that the building form and design of non-residential land uses do not unreasonably detract from the amenity of adjoining or adjacent residents or the existing quality of the environment by its scale, height, bulk or operation.

(f) To only permit development that does not place unacceptable demands on infrastructure and services.
