                centres to meet changing needs, provided any increased floor space does

            Comment:


            The proposed development is appropriately located within the Shire Business
            Centre Zone on the basis the proposed use will provide goods and services to
            the immediate and wider community. Further, given the nature of the
            proposed use, the design of the proposed development, the surrounding
            zoning designation and existing established uses in the area, the proposed
            development will not compromise the amenity of the area. Whilst it is
            acknowledged the proposed development includes an industrial component
            which is not envisaged in the Shire Business Centre Zone, the industrial
            component is ancillary to and compliments the proposed retail component of
            the proposal. It follows, the proposed development will not compromise the
            long term viability of the Shire Business Centre as the principle business,
            retail and administrative centre.
