Aims and strategies

2. (1) The aims of this Policy are:

(a) to facilitate the establishment of manufactured home estates as a contemporary form of medium density residential development that provides an alternative to traditional housing arrangements;

and

(b) to provide immediate development opportunities for manufactured home estates on the commencement of this Policy; and

(c) to encourage the provision of affordable housing in well designed estates; and 1993—No. 320

(d) to ensure that manufactured home estates are situated only in suitable locations and not on land having important resources or having landscape, scenic or ecological qualities that should be preserved; and

(e) to ensure that manufactured home estates are adequately serviced and have access to essential community facilities and services; and

(f) to protect the environment surrounding manufactured home estates; and

(g) to provide measures which will facilitate security of tenure for residents of manufactured home estates.

(a) by allowing, with development consent, manufactured home estates on certain land on which caravan parks are permitted if the land meets the suitable locational criteria stipulated in this Policy (which it would not do if, for example, it contains important resources, is subject to natural or man-made risks or has sensitive environmental or ecological features); and
