Frequently asked questions
Does this RE2 Private Recreation table apply to my property in Central Coast?
Only if this zone and this planning scheme apply to the land. Search your address — that is what names both.
Can I assume my project is one of the terms listed for RE2 Private Recreation?
No. The list uses the planning scheme’s official names. Whether your project counts as one of those names is a judgement call — that’s what a planner is for.
If a use is not listed in RE2 Private Recreation, is it prohibited in Central Coast?
Not by itself. Unlisted uses follow this zone’s fallback (“Prohibited”). That is different from being named on the list.
