What is UN zoning in South Australia?
UN in South Australia is the Urban Neighbourhood zone. It is a residential zone under the state planning scheme. In plain terms: townhouses, dual occupancy and gentle-density growth corridors.
What can you build on UN?
UN is a residential zone, so it broadly supports residential land uses. The exact permitted, permissible and prohibited uses — and the development standards (height, floor space, lot size) — are set by the local environmental plan or planning scheme that applies to the parcel, and they vary council by council. Always confirm the controls against the current instrument before relying on them.
