Site area
710 m² from the mapped boundary, not the council's figure
The main town centre — retail, offices, civic uses, apartments.
N1.5 — Airport
Tied to the efficient operation and development of the airport under its own plan — which also means aircraft noise contours apply.
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.
