8.3 Mitigation through consideration of environmental protection objectives contained in the City Development Plan In addition to the environmental mitigation measures integrated into the Strategy, the development management standards and environmental protection measures defined in the CDP will serve to mitigate the environmental effects of any development proposals supported by the Strategy. These development management standards/environmental protection measures have been defined for the express purpose of ensuring proper planning and sustainable development in the City. The CDP has been subject to its own SEA and AA. The Strategy has been prepared having appropriate regard to the policies and objectives contained in the City Development Plan. 8.4 Conclusion The reasonable alternative evaluation presented in Section 6 and summarised in Section 8.1 has resulted in the development of a Strategy that achieves the best environmental outcomes in comparison to other reasonable alternatives considered. The adoption of the mitigation measures to be integrated into the Strategy, in combination with the continued adoption of the development planning and control related environmental protection measures defined in the CDP will prevent, reduce and as fully as possible offset any potential negative environmental effects due to the implementation of the Strategy. No further mitigation measures are required for the Strategy.
