Zones mapped in Casey
ACZ1 — Activity Centre Zone
10 mapped areasA bespoke zone for major activity centres that packages land use, height and design rules for the whole centre into one schedule with precinct-by-precinct controls.
Heights and setbacks set precinct-by-precinct in the ACZ schedule (some mandatory, some discretionary); the schedule replaces most standard zone rules.

Read the published ordinance for ACZ2 →C1Z — Commercial 1 Zone
37 mapped areasThe main shopping-strip and centre zone: retail, offices, food and entertainment, with housing above shops encouraged.
No default height limit — scale comes from overlay schedules (commonly a DDO) and abutting-residential interface setbacks (Clause 34.01-4 amenity provisions).
Read the published ordinance for C1Z →C2Z — Commercial 2 Zone
4 mapped areasA commercial zone for offices, trade supplies, bulky-goods retail and light manufacturing — typically along main roads rather than in shopping strips.

This is the full set of zone codes in our VIC corpus for Casey. A zone that exists in the council’s scheme but is not mapped in the data we hold will not appear here.
This page reports what is mapped in published VIC planning data, as we last synced it on 22 May 2026. It is general information, not planning advice, and it makes no assessment of any proposal. Whether an approval is needed, and what a council decides, are matters for the responsible authority — check the council’s own planning scheme and contact them directly.
