(2) To avoid doubt, this clause prevails to the extent of any inconsistency with any other provision of this plan. 4 Aims of this plan The aims of this plan are— (a) to give effect to the desired outcomes, strategic principles, policies and actions of the Tweed Shire 2000+ Strategic Plan which was adopted, after extensive community consultation, by the Council on 17 December 1996, the vision of which is— "The management of growth so that the unique natural and developed character of the Tweed Shire is retained, and its economic vitality, ecological integrity and cultural fabric is enhanced", and (b) to provide a legal basis for the making of a development control plan that contains more detailed local planning policies and other provisions that provide guidance for future development and land management, such as provisions recommending the following— (i) that some or all development should be restricted to certain land within a zone, (ii) that specific development requirements should apply to certain land in a zone or to a certain type of development, (iii) that certain types or forms of development or activities should be encouraged by the provision of appropriate incentives, and (c) to give effect to and provide reference to the following strategies and policies adopted by the Council— Tweed Shire 2000+ Strategy Pottsville Village Strategy, and (d) to encourage sustainable economic development of the area of Tweed compatible with the area's environmental and residential amenity qualities, and (e) to protect and promote the use and development of land for arts and cultural activity, including music and other performance arts. 5 Ecologically sustainable development An objective of this plan is to promote development that is consistent with the four principles of ecologically sustainable development. These are— (a) the precautionary principle namely, that if there are threats of serious or irreversible environmental damage, lack of full scientific certainty should not be used as a reason for postponing measures to prevent environmental degradation. In the application of the precautionary principle, public and private decisions should be guided by— (i) careful evaluation to avoid, wherever practicable, serious or irreversible damage to the environment, and (ii) an assessment of the risk-weighted consequences of various options, and (b) inter-generational equity namely, that the present generation should ensure that the health, diversity and productivity of the environment are maintained or enhanced for the benefit of future generations, and (c) conservation of biological diversity and ecological integrity namely, that conservation of biological diversity and ecological integrity should be a fundamental consideration, and (d) improved valuation, pricing and incentive mechanisms namely, that environmental factors should be included in the valuation of assets and services, such as— (i) polluter pays—that is, those who generate pollution and waste should bear the cost of containment, avoidance or abatement, and (ii) the users of goods and services should pay prices based on the full life cycle of costs of providing goods and services, including the use of natural resources and assets and the ultimate disposal of any waste, and (iii) environmental goals, having been established, should be pursued in the most cost effective way, by establishing incentive structures, including market mechanisms, that enable those best placed to maximise benefits or minimise costs to develop their own solutions and responses to environmental problems. 6 Consent authority Subject to the Act, the consent authority for the purposes of this plan is Tweed Shire Council. 7 Interpretation (1) Unless the context or subject-matter indicates otherwise, terms used in this plan have the meanings set out in the Act and Schedule 1.
