PLANNING & ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                        7 DECEMBER 2021


To achieve the purpose, the Homed-Based Business Code includes Acceptable and Performance
Outcomes which the activity is required to satisfy. Where the development fails to satisfy the
Acceptable Outcomes and Performance Outcomes of the code, it might be considered that the
activity is not compatible and/or suitable given the likely offsite impacts and would be better suited
in a different location.
The relevant Acceptable Outcomes sought for home-based businesses are listed below in Table
1, and an assessment of the proposed activity is provided in the adjoining column. Any non-
compliance with the Acceptable Outcomes is noted and assessed against the corresponding
Performance Outcome thereafter.
