20 dwellings per hectare—‘medium density housing’—beyond the
‘higher density housing’ up to 800 metres from Marshall Station and the
proposed public transport interchange at Rossack Drive, and within 400
metres of the edge of the Sub-Regional and Neighbourhood Activity
Centres. This equates to an average lot size of approximately 360 sqm,
suitable for small detached or semi-detached houses (duplexes) with
small gardens.
14 dwellings per hectare—‘conventional density housing’—in the
remainder of the residential areas. This equates to an average lot size of
approximately 550 sqm, able to comfortably accommodate conventional
detached houses.
P 5.9 Lot layouts within 400 metres of the Sub-Regional, Neighbourhood
and Local activity centres should be designed to enable future
intensification.
P 5.10 Medium-high density housing areas should have more intenselyplanted
street trees and more frequent parks to compensate for the
loss of planting opportunities in private gardens.
