Subdivision
1. All subdivision applications must be submitted with the latest approved framework plan which relates to the site.
Framework plans - general
2. A framework plan must cover the whole of the development area in which the site is located and provide the following information whether or not that land is owned by the applicant.
3. In all cases a framework plan must show where relevant:
a.Existing site boundaries
b.The location, width and function of all proposed streets (including roads to be stopped) in accordance with the Silverdale North Development Areas and Road Layout plan in Precinct Plan 2 and Roads to be stopped in Precinct Plan 4
c.The location, width and function of cycle and pedestrian routes and the location, dimension and functions of public open spaces
d.The distribution of various densities/site sizes throughout the application area. Layouts that provide for significant grouping of like site sizes should be avoided
e.A landscape plan including:
i.The landscape theme
ii.Street tree planting
iii.Species types that provide identity to the neighbourhood and compatibility to the local urban context
iv.Proposed landscaping on sites proposed for three or more dwellings
v.Provision for street gardens or ecological corridors where appropriate
vi.In the case of sub-precinct A, the landscaping must show a minimum of 10 per cent of the net site area of all sites set aside for landscaping. The landscaping must be densely planted and the landscape plan must show the density, species, depth and height at maturity of all planting
f.The existing and proposed finished contours at 2m intervals and approximate long sections of roads.
g.The general nature of any earthworks proposed.
h.Physical Limitations areas shown on Precinct Plan 1.
i.Where a more intense subdivision is proposed in the Physical Limitations area, an engineering report must be prepared by an appropriately qualified and experienced person that demonstrates the land is suitable for building and any conditions of development, taking into consideration the geotechnical constraints in the area.
j.The location and extent of scheduled items or sites of significance to Maori and any other known archaeological or geological sites of significance.
k.Any protected trees, the location of existing significant vegetation in areas identified for vegetation protection and provision for planting in the Silverdale North Development Area 9A and 9B plan in Precinct Plan 3.
l.The location and extent of proposed trunk utility services.
m.Sites for non-residential activities where these are known.
n.Proposals for stormwater disposal, including any stormwater treatment areas and integration with the Silverdale North Integrated Catchment Management Plan.
o.Means of protecting native vegetation.
p.The location scale and appearance of signage which avoids the use of bright corporate colours to reduce the visual impact on the surrounding environment.
q.Details of how the development on the application site will be staged.
4. Where a site is in the Gateway area shown in Precinct Plan 1, a perspective sketch or photomontage must be prepared showing the proposed scale and form of buildings when viewed from State Highway 1A.
5. Where the site is within the Wainui Road area in Precinct Plan 1, a photomontage or perspective sketch must be prepared showing the proposed scale and form of buildings when viewed from the adjacent portion of Wainui Road within the Silverdale North precinct plan.
6.Where three or more dwellings are proposed a design statement equivalent to that required for more than five dwellings in the Mixed Housing Suburban zone must be prepared in accordance with the Special Information requirements of the residential zones (refer to Chapter I clause 12).
Framework plans - sub-precinct A
7. A framework plan within sub-precinct A must include the additional information specified below.
8. Prepare conditions to control the location, scale, design and appearance of signs to establish a visual identity which supports policies 9-15.
9. How development within sub-precinct A will integrate with land in sub-precinct D3.
10. The proposed utility layout, including provision for incorporating new technology within the sub-precinct as it becomes available.
11. Any proposals to limit or restrict types of activities within any part of the land affected.
12. Any proposal to limit building design or scale within any part of the land affected.
13. Identify how development can occur in sub-precinct A that achieves objective 9 and policies 9-15.
Framework plans - sub-precincts C and D1, D2 and D3
14. A framework plan within sub-precincts C and D1, D2 and D3 must include the additional information specified below.
15. Site development information, including plans showing:
a. Topographic land contours
b. Building platforms and footprints
c. Building subdivision including individual shop and business tenancy sizes where practicable
d. Pedestrian walkways
e. Car parking areas and vehicular circulation
f. Vehicle access points between the site and public roads
g. Landscaping areas
h. Service areas with appropriate screening
i. The position of adjacent properties in terms of contributing to an overall urban design and streetscape character including treatment of building frontages appropriate to the objectives and policies for the relevant sub-precinct or development area.
16. Carpark layout and accessways information, including plans showing:
a. The number of car parks to be provided
b. The layout and vehicle circulation within the site
c. Dimensions of car parks carriageways and accessways
d. The provision of landscaping and stormwater swales within the car park, and any artificial lighting within these areas.
17. Landscape elements, including plans/reports showing:
a. The type of landscaping to be provided in yards, car park areas, and other landscape areas and any artificial lighting to be used in these areas
b. A landscape management plan should identify plant and tree species to be used, the number and spacing of plants, appropriate garden preparation techniques and the on-going management of proposed landscaping.
18. Pedestrian areas, including plans showing:
a. The position of walkways
b. Linkages to adjacent sites
c. Veranda cover, and the position of street furniture such as public seating, rubbish bins, cycle racks, and protective bollards (including the intended design and materials to be used for such street furniture), and any artificial lighting to be used in these areas.
19. Elevations showing:
a. Building exterior design features including roofs, facades, verandas, exterior building materials, colours and finishes, any artificial lighting to exterior walls and features
b. How the proposal integrates with adjacent properties in terms of contributing to an overall urban design and character of the streetscape appropriate to the sub-precinct or development area.
