               activities and infrastructure, while also recognising that in consideration of the broad community
               need/benefit for specific types of housing such as affordable rentals, the Community Facilities Zone
               may also provide for these residential outcomes on the basis of community need. On balance, the
               proposal is considered to generally align with the Overall Outcomes of the Community Facilities
               Zone on the basis that it is providing much needed affordable housing in a location highly suited to
               this type of housing product.
               The Performance Outcomes specifically contemplate affordable rental premises, accessible
               housing and other special residential uses as consistent uses that meet an identified community
               need. In this regard, the proposal is considered consistent with the broader intent of the zone.
               While this policy outcome may be more so reflective or responsive to the greater strategic focus
               on the provision/community need for affordable housing in recent years and the availability of
               suitable land in the Community Facilities Zone, the proposal achieves an intended outcomes of the
               zone.
               The proposed design also generally complies with the key built form parameters for the Community
               Facilities Zone and the Dual Occupancy and Multiple Dwelling Code. This is summarised in the
               table below:
