Zoning at the site
Proposed Residential: Provide for new residential development in tandem with the provision of the necessary social and physical infrastructure.
Zoned for new residential communities. This is where large housing schemes are expected to go, subject to the social and physical infrastructure arriving with them.
Existing Residential: Protect and enhance the amenity of developed residential communities
An established residential area. The objective is to protect existing residential amenity as well as to provide housing — which is the objective a neighbour's objection to an overbearing extension is usually argued under.
Strategic Residential Reserve: Provide for and protect the future housing requirements of the town.
Land zoned for housing. Expect infill, extensions and — on larger plots — apartment or scheme applications that accord with the objective.
