3 Context

The Village Centre is the primary shopping location for residents of Culburra for the short and mid-term period. The centre is strategically placed to be accessible to future residential expansion areas. Long term expansion of the centre had been identified in a westerly direction.

4 Objectives

The objectives are to: i. Co-ordinate future development within the expanded retail zone. ii. Encourage development in keeping with the size of Culburra which reflects the

scale and character of a tourist orientated town. iii. Provide a centralised off-street car park that encourages a compact retail centre

and double retail frontage opportunities. iv. Provide pedestrian linkages which reduce conflict between people and cars,

particularly to the off-street car park. v. Maximise development options and minimise the impact of existing commercial

and residential uses. vi. Provide guidelines for streetscape improvements. vii. Provide off-street service facilities which do not conflict with other parking areas

of pedestrian movements.

5 Controls

5.1 Centralised Off-Street Car Parking Any private off-street you propose as part of your development must comply with Chapter G21: Car Parking and Traffic. A small number of parallel parking spaces have been shown on the map at the eastern end of the Village Centre to allow for vehicles towing caravans or boats.

5.2 Double Retail Frontages You are encouraged to provide retail frontages to the off-street parking area in Weston Street and linkages between this car park and other car parks through the provision of an arcade through Lot 1464 DP 12278.

5.3 Pedestrian Footpaths If your development involves a high volume pedestrian area as identified on the map, or is a retail development having double frontage to the off-street car park in Weston Street, you must provide footpaths of 5 metres in width. You must construct these footpaths in unit paving as per Council guidelines and as per an overall streetscape plan. Other footpaths, 2-3 metres in width with frontage to shops also require construction in unit paving whilst footpaths less than 2 metres in proposed service areas may be constructed in concrete.

5.4 Landscape Requirements You will be required to include landscaping in all new development. Landscaping will need to conform to a streetscape plan which is to be prepared with owners and tenants of the land in the Village Centre. The principles of this streetscape plan will include:

Landscaping which reflects the tourist atmosphere of the town.

Landscaping adjoining street frontages, particularly in Weston and Fairlands Streets, shall have a minimum width of 3 metres.

A landscape buffer shall be provided between the main access road being Prince Edwards Avenue and the shop fronts.

Landscaping shall be provided to footpath areas.

Landscaping with shade trees shall be provided to any off-street parking area.

Landscaping shall relate to the scale of the development.

5.5 Co-ordination of Awning and Parapet Designs In designing your development, you are to ensure that the parapet height and awning width and height complement adjoining development in the commercial area. You will need to provide details of adjoining parapets and awning as part of your application so that Council can assess this.

5.6 Future Growth Long term growth is likely to happen in a westerly direction. Council will consider any new development fronting Canal Street East on the basis of preserving future linkages between the existing centre and any new centre.
