Zoning

C5 — Commercial, enterprise and employment

Land zoned for business use. Expect offices, warehousing, industry or retail rather than housing; a residential application here is swimming against the plan.

N1.5 — Airport

Tied to the efficient operation and development of the airport under its own plan — which also means aircraft noise contours apply.

N2.1 — Strategic infrastructure

Land tied to a national or strategic asset (airport, port, rail corridor). Uses are controlled by that asset's own plan.

R1 — New residential

Zoned for new residential communities. This is where large housing schemes are expected to go, subject to the social and physical infrastructure arriving with them.

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.

R4 — Residential

Land zoned for housing. Expect infill, extensions and — on larger plots — apartment or scheme applications that accord with the objective.
