10 General considerations for development within rural zones

(1) The Council must, before granting an application for consent to carry out development on land within Zone No 1 (a) or 1 (c) take into consideration the effect (if any) of the carrying out of that development on:

(a) vegetation, land capability (including soil resources and soil stability) and water resources (including the quality and stability of watercourse and ground water storage), and

(b) the protection of areas of significance for nature conservation or of high scenic or recreational value, and places and buildings of archaeological or heritage significance, including Aboriginal relics and places, and

(c) the cost of providing, extending and maintaining public amenities and services to the site of the proposed development.
