Development on sloping land
Objectives
- O.1To protect and minimize disturbance to natural landforms
- O.2To encourage buildings that are designed to respond sensitively to natural topography
Design Principles
- P.1Buildings are to be sited and designed to take into account the slope of the land to:
- minimise the visual bulk of the development, particularly when viewed from down slope.
- minimise the need for cut and fill by designs which minimise the building footprint and allow the building mass to step down the slope
- minimise the impact of development on the privacy of adjoining land.
