Zoning

C2.1 — Economic development and employment

Zoned for employment uses. Housing is not the intended use here.

N1.5 — Airport

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

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.

S3 — Community infrastructure

Reserved for civic, religious, community, education, health-care and social infrastructure.
