O14 For residential development, the subdivision
design provides for the maximum practicable number
of lots with house site areas that—
a)     maximise solar access to the north in winter;
b)     minimise solar access to the east and west in
       the summer;
c)     maximise access to any prevailing summer
       breezes; and
d)     minimise exposure to prevailing winter winds.
Infrastructure
O15 Each lot is capable of being serviced by                All lots will be connected to power supply,

O16 The design and provision of public services and
utilities, including sewerage, water, electricity, street
lighting and telecommunication services—
a)      meets the needs of users;
b)      ensures health, safety and convenience of the
        community;
c)      protects the natural environmental values of
        the site and surrounds, including visual amenity
        and native vegetation;
d)      are cost effective over their life cycle;
e)      minimises adverse impacts to the environment
        (including the amenity of the local area) in the
        short and long term; and
f)      ensures that the existing systems are upgraded
        or relocated to be capable of supporting the
        proposed development;
