(1) This clause applies to land within Zone No 2 (a2).

(2) The Council shall not grant consent to the subdivision of land to which this clause applies unless it has made an assessment of the physical capability of the land to accommodate urban residential development in accordance with the guidelines specified in Section 4 of the publication entitled Environment & Health Guidelines: On-site Sewage Management for Single Households (January 1998), available from the Department of Local Government.

(3) The Council shall not grant consent to the subdivision of land to which this clause applies unless the Council is satisfied that adequate provision has been made for:

(a) the disposal of effluent from any future residential dwellings to be located on the newly created allotments, so as to ensure that all such effluent can be successfully disposed of within the boundaries of each of the allotments, and

(b) effluent waters and stormwater run-off arising from the use of the land for residential purposes to be disposed of without risk of significant contamination to any watercourse, and

(c) the retention of any significant vegetation, and

(d) the subdivision works to be carried out in accordance with a soil and water management plan approved by the Council, and
