Zoning at the site
RW: To provide for and consolidate retail warehousing
Zoned for bulky-goods retail warehousing — large sheds, large car parks.
RES: To protect and/or improve residential amenity
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.
