The development promotes the efficient use and optimization of existing municipal sewage and water services, and will ensure that sewage and water services provided comply with all regulatory requirements and protect human health and the natural environment (PPS, 1.6.6 (a) (b), 1.7.1 (b)).
The development has existed on the site for a number of years and has not had a negative impact on the existing municipal services. The proposed improvements to the subject site will improve the site grading and stormwater management which will result in improved drainage on the site. There is currently a small site trailer on the subject site and the use does not cause a strain on the infrastructure system.
