|
•Municipal planning documents must contain policies on
municipal infrastructure that:
|
|
•PROMOTE EFFICIENT USE OF EXISTING
|
|
•REDUCE NEED FOR NEW
|
|
•Development to be given highest priority should include:
|
|
•INFILL
|
|
•HIGHER DENSITY
|
|
|
|
•MINIMAL COST SERVICE EXTENSION (often through shared
services agreements)
|
|
|
|
•Minimizing competition among municipalities for
commercial development throughout the district.
|
|
•Reduce inefficient practice of leapfrog development
