Legal Meaning

A broad category including buildings and works such as fences, retaining walls, pools, roads, paths, driveways, service conduits and signs.

Plain English

Planning controls applying to a structure can capture much more than an enclosed building. Setbacks and approval requirements may therefore apply to retaining walls, decks, pools, driveways and service works.
