Zoning at the site
Sports Grounds and Facilities: To protect, retain and enhance the range and quality of sports facilities and grounds.
Land zoned to stay open — parks, playing fields, amenity corridors. Built development is very hard to justify, which also means the view is protected.
Sustainable Residential Neighbourhoods: To protect and provide for residential uses and amenities, local services and community, institutional, educational and civic uses.
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.
