Zoning
Open space and recreational amenity, to be preserved as such.
Land tied to a national or strategic asset (airport, port, rail corridor). Uses are controlled by that asset's own plan.
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.
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.
