                                                           Development that is consistent with the specific outcomes in section 14.159 complies
                                                           with the Water Sensitive Design Code.

                                                  14.157.2 The overall outcomes sought by the Water Sensitive Design Code are to ensure that—
                                                  a)   development is designed, constructed and operated in a manner that contributes to, and does
                                                       not impede, long term attainment of relevant Environmental Values and Water Quality
                                                       Objectives as specified in the Environmental Protection Policy 2009;
                                                  b)   development avoids adverse impacts on downstream ecosystems, properties and
                                                       infrastructure due to changes to stormwater flow, water quality or ecosystem health;
                                                  c)   stormwater conveyance channels use natural channel design principles to convey external
                                                       catchment stormwater through development and support landscape, passive recreation and
                                                       ecological values;
                                                  d)   urban development captures and utilises run-off from appropriate areas for use on site; and
                                                  e)   water reuse facilities have no adverse impact on the quality of the town mains water.
