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.
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.
