(b) to encourage appropriate business activities which contribute to economic growth and employment opportunities within the Green Square area, and
(c) to promote the vitality of the public domain by encouraging the location of active retail and entertainment uses at ground and first floor levels, particularly in areas fronting the Green Square Railway Station, and
(d) to ensure through the design of a high quality public domain that a high level of amenity is provided for pedestrians, shoppers and workers within the zone, and
(e) to minimise any adverse impact, including social impact, on residential amenity by devising appropriate design assessment criteria and applying specific impact mitigation requirements by the use of development control plans, and
(f) to ensure that existing and future development on land zoned industrial under this plan is preserved and promoted so as to protect the existing employment within South Sydney, and
