Zoning

M2 — Major town centre

The main town centre — retail, offices, civic uses, apartments.

R2 — Existing residential

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.
