Who this affects

This gazette matters to:

• buyers checking whether a plot is shown as residential in the master plan
• landowners whose survey field numbers are listed
• planners, surveyors and document writers verifying permitted land use
• lenders and developers doing due diligence on land classification

Practical takeaway

If your land falls within one of the listed survey fields, the master plan entry has been changed in the official planning record. The main effect shown in these notifications is that the listed portions move into Residential use zone, while the earlier agricultural, public and semi public, or educational classification is narrowed to exclude those portions.
