Zoning

C2.1 — Economic development and employment

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

N6 — Strategic infrastructure

Land tied to a national or strategic asset (airport, port, rail corridor). Uses are controlled by that asset's own plan.

N1.5 — Airport

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

Protections nearby 250 m
