    for an activated frontage and also for ease of pedestrian access into the site,
    which is important with respect to providing a link from the existing pedestrian
    crossing to the Neighbourhood Centre. The development is infill development
    being located between two (2) other commercial uses and will not be out of
    character at this location.

109. It is acknowledged that there is some conflict with the planning scheme with
   respect to the subject land being included the Semi-Attached Housing Zone and
   the Open Space Recreation Zone. However, according to the EIS, there is a high
   level of economic need for the development and significant community benefit
   will also occur. Further, the proposed development will not have an adverse
   impact upon the existing Neighbourhood Centre or affect the viability of any
   other centre. The proposed development will not adversely impact upon the retail
   hierarchy as a whole.

110. Given the level of need identified for a supermarket, which is to primarily
   serve the local trade area, the location of the proposed development is also of
   key importance. Currently there is no other location where this type of
   development can be provided, which is in close proximity to and integrated with
   the existing Neighbourhood Centre. Consequently, given the merits that have
   been identified, there is a significant planning need for the proposal. In my
   opinion, there are sufficient grounds to overcome any conflict with the planning
   scheme and the proposal should be supported.
