    Zoning at the site

    Zone Z9 - DEV PLAN 2022-2028

    G5 — Open space and amenity

    Z9: Amenity/Open Space Lands/Green Network: To preserve, provide and improve recreational amenity, open space and ecosystem services.

    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

    Z1: Sustainable Residential Neighbourhoods: To protect, provide and improve residential amenities.

    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.

    S5 — Sustainable neighbourhood infrastructure

    Z15: Community and Social Infrastructure: To protect and provide for community uses and social infrastructure.

    Reserved for the schools, creches, community and health facilities a neighbourhood needs.
