Zoning
Zoned for employment uses. Housing is not the intended use here.
Land tied to a national or strategic asset (airport, port, rail corridor). Uses are controlled by that asset's own plan.
Tied to the efficient operation and development of the airport under its own plan — which also means aircraft noise contours apply.
