All Topics / Value Adding / zoning?
I am a complete novice to developments….could somebody please tell me what the difference is between a b and c zoning?
Anna,
Zoning gives land a designation under that States planning scheme. Each zone has particular rules as to what can and cannot be done with the land, and also what needs a planning permit before it is done.
A basic example is a residential zone. So long as the block is above a certain size and trhe building takes up less than a certain % of the land you can build a house with just a building permit. If the block is particularly small or the proposed house particularly large then you may be able to build it, but you need a planning permit. A brothel on the other hand would be prohibited.
The planning scheme is State based, but there are slight variations between municipalities.
I’m not aware of a,b & c zones, but I only operate in Victoria. Here the zones are Resedential, Rural, Industrial etc.
This is a very simplistic explanation of a complex subject, but I hope it helps.
Regards
