r)cc)   For Kin Kin village—

         i         there is a distinct boundary to the village and urban development does not
                   extend beyond the boundaries identified on Map ZM1;

         ii        Kin Kin village, is bordered by Kin Kin Creek and set in an isolated valley with
                   steep forested slopes;

         iii       flooding, the presence of agricultural lands, potential influences of nearby
                   extractive resources and other biophysical factors constrain the size and growth
                   of Kin Kin Village;

         iv        the quiet relaxed lifestyle offered by Kin Kin’s remote setting is preserved
                   including the agricultural focus of the surrounding area and the open space and
                   rural vistas that characterise the village;

         iiv       the intimate rural village townscape and streetscape character of the village is
                   preserved and enhanced, this includes its rural setting, traditional building style,
                   low level of infrastructure, general informality and absence of commercialism ;

         vi        the small size of Kin Kin Village defines its attractive and defining characteristics
                   with uses limited to a primary school, community hall (School of Arts), shop,
                   hotel and some formal sporting facilities including tennis courts and sports
                   ground;

         iiivii    views from and to the village are protected, particularly in regard to the entry
                   points from the west and south;

         viii      the entrances to Kin Kin Village are well defined with a sense of arrival provided
                   by the rural surrounds and limited residential development outside of the village;

         ix        the southern entrance to the village provides attractive views of the Country Life
                   Hotel framed by vegetation;

         ivx       lands in the Village Mix Zone and the Community Services Zone in the vicinity
                   of the sports ground and the hall create a focal point for community interaction
                   through both indoor and outdoor activities;

         xi        the built form of commercial and residential development in Kin Kin that provide
                   important historical characteristics and connections to early 20th century
                   architectural styles are preserved and enhanced;

         xii       the low level of convenience, accessibility and servicing available limits the type
                   and extent of rural settlements that may occur, helping to preserve a rural
                   retreat lifestyle;

         vxiii     tThe Country Life Hotel is retained as an important local landmark and
                   character building with any further development being sympathetic to the
                   existing character of the building, arrangement of buildings and landscape
                   setting;

         vixiv detached housing areas have high levels of amenity consistent with Kin Kin’s
               rural village character, which is derived from its relatively large allotment sizes,
               low density residential living and its relationship to the rural and natural
               environment surrounding the village;

                viixv Home based businesses are provided for in Kin Kin village and rural areas
                      to assist in providing locally based employment opportunities and diversify
