Zoning
Zoned for employment uses. Housing is not the intended use here.
Open space and recreational amenity, to be preserved as such.
Land zoned to stay open — parks, playing fields, amenity corridors. Built development is very hard to justify, which also means the view is protected.
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.
A small rural settlement where only modest infill serving local need is envisaged.
