Statutory Register: Zoning
Q1. What is meant by statutory register zoning?
Zoning is an instrument of the Council's planning section to guide and control permissible developments or land use for each parcel of land (or parts thereof).
Zoned areas can include:
- Residential: to preserve and protect housing and related developments and activities.
- Commercial: areas set aside mainly for retail trade, services, and business activity.
- Industrial: reserved for manufacturing, assembly, processing, and related activities.
The basic purpose of these zones is to prevent land use conflicts by allowing only compatible uses to locate in the same area.
