For example, see:

105. If setting local parking standards for residential and non-residential development, policies should take into account:

(a) the accessibility of the development;
(b) the type, mix and use of development;
(c) the availability of and opportunities for public transport;
(d) local car ownership levels; and
(e) the need to ensure an adequate provision of spaces for charging plug-in and other ultra-low emission vehicles.

127. Planning policies and decisions should ensure that developments:

(a) will function well and add to the overall quality of the area, not just for the short term but over the lifetime of the development;
(b) are visually attractive as a result of good architecture, layout and appropriate and effective landscaping;
(c) are sympathetic to local character and history, including the surrounding built environment and landscape setting, while not preventing or discouraging appropriate innovation or change (such as increased densities);
(d) establish or maintain a strong sense of place, using the arrangement of streets, spaces, building types and materials to create attractive, welcoming and distinctive places to live, work and visit;
(e) optimise the potential of the site to accommodate and sustain an appropriate amount and mix of development (including green and other public space) and support local facilities and transport networks; and
(f) create places that are safe, inclusive and accessible and which promote health and well-being, with a high standard of amenity for existing and future users ⁴⁶; and where crime and disorder, and the fear of crime, do not undermine the quality of life or community cohesion and resilience.

174. To protect and enhance biodiversity and geodiversity
