Zoning
Zoned for bulky-goods retail warehousing — large sheds, large car parks.
Zoned for office, research and development and high-technology manufacturing.
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.
