Ribbon Development

Proposal for two dwellings contravenes the requirement for individual rural dwellings, exacerbates ribbon development and overdevelopment, and creates an overconcentration of effluent treatment systems.

Applications in rural areas shall be for individual dwelling houses only and must be made in the name of the person who is the intended occupier of the dwelling house.
