Object to the requirement at 2 vii for all new development to deliver new and improved health services. This is not justified and not effective due to requirement being placed on all development sites without site specific consideration. New health facilities should not be a blanket requirement.
Where improvements are needed, but a new building or facility is not required, then financial contributions could be sought to improve existing facilities.
Recommend the policy is amended to allow for financial contributions where improvements are identified as the necessary mitigation to make development acceptable in planning terms.
Supports the principle of this policy.
Propose that the policy is amended to allow for financial contributions where improvements are identified as the necessary mitigation to make development acceptable in planning terms.
