How Port Botany is zoned
Buying in Port Botany? The zoning, flood and bushfire lines on the section 10.7 certificate attached to the contract are mapped controls - see our s10.7 certificate guide.
Across its 2.25 km², Port Botany is relatively unconstrained by the planning overlays we hold. We hold no flood mapping covering this suburb, so no flood figure is shown - that is a gap in our data, not an all-clear. There are 3 heritage-listed sites on record, and the dominant land-use zone is Special Activities. The median lot measures about 21,362 m² across 36 parcels. These figures are suburb-wide - the overlays that actually apply to a given lot can differ block to block, which is what a property-level check tells you.
