    Zoning at the site

    M3 — Neighbourhood centre

    Neighbourhood Centre: To provide for local shopping, non retail services, community and social needs

    A local centre: shops, services and apartments over them, serving the surrounding housing.

    R1 — New residential

    New Residential: To protect, provide and improve residential amenities

    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

    Existing Residential: To protect, provide and improve residential amenities

    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.

    S5 — Sustainable neighbourhood infrastructure

    Community Facilities: To protect, provide and improve community facilities

    Reserved for the schools, creches, community and health facilities a neighbourhood needs.
