Zoning

Zone Z1 - DEV PLAN 2022-2028

C2.1 — Economic development and employment

Zoned for employment uses. Housing is not the intended use here.

G5 — Open space and amenity

Land zoned to stay open — parks, playing fields, amenity corridors. Built development is very hard to justify, which also means the view is protected.

R2 — Existing residential

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.
