Comprehensiveness of the Process of Housing Planning Control The comprehensiveness of the planning control process in controlling housing
supply is examined based on the extent to which the housing approvals by the LPAs comply with the proposals of development plan (particularly to the proposed land use zone), consider the aspects of housing demand (effective demand, market demand and balancing the number of housing supply and demand) and impose the conditions on development phase, density, category and type of housing development.
6.4.3.1 Compliance to the Proposed Land Use Zone The content analysis shows that from the 82 housing applications approved in the study area, only 44 applications (53.7%) are situated in the area zoned for housing. The remainder are located in the areas planned for other uses, i.e. agriculture (15 applications or 18.3%), open space and green area (15 applications or 18.3%), industrial (2 application or 2.4%), institution (1 application or 1.2%) and other land uses (5 applications or 6.1%) (Table 6.25).
