7 Impacts on Local Infrastructure and Likely Upgrades

The proposed Multiple Housing – Type 3 Retirement and Special Needs development will result in additional
loads on the available surrounding infrastructure with additional infrastructure required to service the subject
site.

Discussions with the relevant authorities will be required during the subsequent phases of the project to
ensure that there is sufficient capacity available within all existing systems to accept the additional demands
from the proposed development.

The potential impacts on the local infrastructure and likely upgrades are summarised in Table 7.1 below.
