78 parcels carry more than one zone. On a split lot the controls differ across the block, so a single zone label for the property can be misleading — the map shows each part and its area.
Constraints mapped in Light Regional Council
Overlays decide what you can actually build, and they are mapped per property rather than per council. These totals show how much of Light Regional Council carries each one — and, just as importantly, how much of it nobody has assessed.
Bushfire
97.79%
11,796 parcels (97.79%) are inside a mapped bushfire overlay. The rest sit outside it, so the bushfire planning controls do not apply there — not that the land cannot burn.
Flood
70.88%
8,550 parcels (70.88%) are inside a mapped flood overlay. The rest sit outside it, so the flood planning controls do not apply there — not that the land cannot flood.
Heritage
17.59%
2,122 parcels (17.59%) are inside a mapped heritage overlay. The rest sit outside it, so the heritage planning controls do not apply there — not that a property here could never be listed in future.
Heritage, flood and bushfire controls on your specific lot can remove the fast-track and require a full application — even when the general rules say you're fine.

How many properties are in Light Regional Council?
Our map holds 12,062 parcels for Light Regional Council, covering about 1,230 km². That is what our map holds for this council. It is drawn from the state cadastre, but some parcel types are deliberately left out — strata unit lots stacked on their base parcel, and easements — so it is not the same as a count of titles.
Is this zoning information official?
It is built from the South Australia government's own published spatial data, but it is a snapshot taken on 2026-08-12 and is not a substitute for a planning certificate. For a decision that matters, check the address live and confirm with Light Regional Council council.
