Zoning

Zone Z1 - DEV PLAN 2022-2028

M3 — Neighbourhood centre

A local centre: shops, services and apartments over them, serving the surrounding housing.

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.
