                                       Community Facilities Zone Code (Part 6.4):
                                        Prioritises land for community-serving uses and discourages
                                       incompatible development.

                                       Overall Outcomes (6.4.2):
                                       Emphasise safeguarding designated land for community infrastructure.




                         2. Development Intensity Out of Character With Surrounding Neighbourhood

                         The proposed density sits in stark contrast to the immediate environment, which
                         transitions from low-density residential into rural residential almost immediately. The
                         height, scale, and footprint of the proposed dwellings are inconsistent with the
                         current built form of Lake Macdonald Drive and Dianella Court. The introduction of
                         multi-storey buildings in an otherwise low-rise neighbourhood would create a visual
                         and amenity impact that is not compatible with the established local character.

                                       Low Density Residential Zone Code (6.3.2):
                                        Supports detached dwellings and low-intensity built form that reflects
                                       surrounding character.

                                       Rural Residential Zone Code (6.3.3):
                                        Reinforces larger-lot, rural-edge character incompatible with medium-
                                       density development.
