Zoning
Open space with active recreational amenities — pitches, courts, play areas.
Tied to the efficient operation and development of the airport under its own plan — which also means aircraft noise contours apply.
Zoned to protect agriculture, rural enterprise and biodiversity. New houses are restricted to demonstrated local need.
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.
