This chapter provides practical guidance for the creation of high-quality residential developments. It includes guidance on:
• Achieving privacy through design; community safety; space standards and storage;
• Bin storage and collection; gardens and private amenity space; frontage conditions/setbacks;
• Garden size;
• Boundary treatments;
• Inclusive design;
• Householder alterations and extensions - front, side and rear extensions;
• Infills and backland development;
• Impact on neighbours;
• Self and custom build.
• We support the key headings listed on the divider page 140 (11.0 Homes and Buildings).
• We suggest the headings from page 140 are carried over the the next page, and /or subheadings grouped into these categories; as the information presented on page 141 can appear overwhelming.
• The Chapter would benefit from a end of section Checklist to summarise design element considerations.
