Zoning at the site
Tourism & Related/opportunity site: Lands zoned for tourist related uses. Oportunity Site 2.
Land zoned for business use. Expect offices, warehousing, industry or retail rather than housing; a residential application here is swimming against the plan.
Agriculture: Zoned for farming and related activities.
Zoned to protect agriculture, rural enterprise and biodiversity. New houses are restricted to demonstrated local need.
New/proposed Residential/opportunity site: To facilitate the development of residential units in accordance with the Core Strategy. Oportunity Site 2.
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.
Existing Residential: To protect and improve existing residential areas.
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.
