                                                          In activity centres and industry zones, new lots contribute
                  storage tanks and suitable effluent
                                                          to a mix of lot sizes that cater for varied commercial and
                  disposal.
                                                          industrial enterprises, such that:
    e)   except where otherwise specified in a local
         area code, comply with the minimum lot size
         specified in Table 9.5.1.4 Minimum Lot Size          a)   smaller lots intended for intensive development
         and Dimensions                                            are clustered near centres;
                                                              b)   new lots adjacent to sensitive land uses include
                                                                   sufficient area for buffering of incompatible land

 Development provides for irregular shaped lots to be                                                                   shape, however, due to topographical, environmental,

    a)   the creation of regular lots is impractical
         such as at a curve in the road or because of
         topographical constraints;
    b)   safe access and visual exposure to and from
         the site can be provided, while not adversely
         impacting on the functionality of the
         surrounding road network;
    c)   it is desirable to
         avoid clearing of vegetation and the
         fragmentation of habitat in ecologically
         important areas; and
    d)   the irregular lot is demonstrably suitable for
         its intended purpose.
