5 March 2015 Chapter 23 - Subdivision and Development Policy 1.5 Require integrated establishment of underground utility services during subdivision/ development. Policy 1.6 Require that water supplies for the demand anticipated following subdivision/ development are of sufficient capacity and of a potable standard for human consumption. Policy 1.7 Encourage connections to public or community reticulated water supply systems wherever such systems are available. Policy 1.8 Encourage the retention of natural open waterway systems for stormwater disposal as an alternative to piping. Policy 1.9 Require stormwater disposal in a manner which maintains or enhances the quality of surface and ground waters. Policy 1.10 Require stormwater disposal in a manner which avoids inundation of land, both within and beyond the boundaries of the site. Policy 1.11 Require that provision is made for trade waste disposal for industrial uses, either at the time of subdivision of the land, or at the time of development. Policy 1.12 Require that electrical reticulation is appropriate to the amenities of the area. Policy 1.13 Require that sewage is disposed of in a manner which is consistent with maintaining public health. Policy 1.14 That wherever possible, sewer systems be designed so that effluent will flow by gravity. Policy 1.15 Encourage connections to reticulated sewerage systems, where such systems are available. Policy 1.16 Where a reticulated system is not available, provision shall be made for the satisfactory disposal of sewage wastes, subject to any adverse effects being avoided, remedied or mitigated. Policy 1.17 Where indicative layouts for roads have been provided, ensure that the roading proposed at the time of subdivision and development is: a) Compatible with the Council's roading hierarchy or alternative design standards approved by Council; b) Reflects the density of development; and c) Connects to the existing roading network and contains internal connections to the extent that is practicable. d) Does not result in a subdivision layout that would cause poor amenity outcomes for individual properties, particularly in terms of property orientation (for solar access or relative to any road or other residential property) and shape. Policy 1.18 Where indicative locations for open space have been provided, ensure that the open space proposed at the time of subdivision and development: 23 - 11
