5.3.3     Industry Activities Code

     1.   The purpose of the Industry activities code is to ensure industry activities:


          a)   are sited, designed and operated to accommodate the industry use, protect public safety, environmental

               values and residential amenity;


          b)   mitigate and manage potential adverse impacts associated with industry activities on sensitive land uses;

               and


          c)   are not compromised by the inappropriate co-location of sensitive land uses.


The development is sited and designed to accommodate low impact industrial uses ensuring the activity of future

business is contained within the site boundaries and in a controlled environment. The development will effectively

manage roof and surface water ensuring adverse impacts to nearby and adjoining development is avoided. The site

does not immediately adjoin a sensitive land use.


5.3.4     Sustainable Building Design Code

The development design adopts and adheres to bet practice sustainable design guidelines having regard to:


     •    Building and openings orientation, ensuring opportunities for prevailing wind capture and natural light are

          achieved;

     •    Building material selection, which will comprise of mostly concrete tilt panels noting they exhibit a high thermal

          insulative quality assisting in colling and heating internal spaces;

     •    Best practice surface and roof water capture and filtration to limit sediment and pollutants into the underground

          stormwater and eventual water systems; and

     •    Ensuring appropriate roof overhangs and building shading devices are achieved, were practical, to limit the

          western suns impact on heating building surfaces and internal spaces.


5.4 Public Notification
The application proposes assessable development which requires code assessment and therefore does not require

public notification pursuant to Section 53 of the Planning Act 2016 and Part 4 of the Development Assessment Rules.
