Zoning at the site
Zone Z9 - DEV PLAN 2022-2028
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.
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.
