Zoning at the site
RV - Rural Village: Protect and promote established villages within the rural landscape where people can settle and have access to community services. The villages are areas within the rural landscape where housing needs can be satisfied with minimal harm to the countryside and surrounding environment. The villages will serve their rural catchment, provide local services and smaller scale rural enterprises. Levels of growth will be managed through local area plans to ensure that a critical mass for local services is encouraged without providing for growth beyond local need and unsustainable commuting patterns.
RV - Rural Village: Protect and promote the character of the Rural Village and promote a vibrant community in accordance with an approved land use plan, and the availability of physical and community infrastructure
The main town centre — retail, offices, civic uses, apartments.
RU - Rural: Protect and promote in a balanced way, the development of agriculture and rural related enterprise, biodiversity, the rural landscape, and the built and cultural heritage
Zoned to protect agriculture, rural enterprise and biodiversity. New houses are restricted to demonstrated local need.
