High-density residential development in urban locations
Development in inner urban locations and high-density areas should be designed to create an urban rather than suburban setting, with higher density development potentially appropriate as a central core to large greenfield developments.
However, development or redevelopment in inner urban locations and other high-density areas, such as within the City Centre or fronting onto a City Corridor, should also be designed to create or reinforce an urban, rather than a suburban setting. Higher density development may also be appropriate as a central core to large developments on greenfield sites.
