Objectives

1. Specific setback requirements are necessary for the development of any lot that shares a boundary with lands used for open space areas (including golf course and public reserve). This is necessary to ensure that suitable landscape integration occurs between open space area and residential development.

Controls

1. Any lot that shares any boundary with the open space area (including golf course and public reserve) must provide a rear setback, to any building, of 4m from that shared boundary. A rear setback of 6m applies to the two storey component.
2. Ancillary recreation facilities such as decks can be provided within the required setback so long as the finished height is no greater than 500mm above ground level (finished).
