What happens when outlying area is incorporated into the town planning zone?
As a first step the land is surveyed. Secondly town planners then map out the position of new roads and public services. Where there are existing buildings the position of these are usually accepted and worked around. However large lands can be divided into smaller plots (parcelisation) and in this process around 30% of the land is lost to the local government for the provision of roads and services.
