All this chat in English is getting us nowhere fast. Please post the text in Dutch so we can see how it's being used. One person alone has posted 3 different answers to give you an idea about the numerous options there are. By actually seeing the context, in Dutch, it will be much easier to give an answer instead of just guessing. the term itself isn't difficult but guessing how it's used certainly is.

To take the discussion back to the question ...
Where are these grensdistricten and bestemmingsgebieden? This might give a clue as to what the bestemmingsgebieden are.

I was talking about how the Dutch and Belgian governments leave it to such a motley crew to devise standard English terms and translations. I was talking about 'crowdsourcing,' and 'mobsourcing.'

Not quite sure what you're on about there Michael...

It find it very interesting how we (the Dutch To English ProZ Peer Alliance) are trying to invent such FTS's (Future Standard Terms).
Actually, I am surprised that overheid.nl doesn't actually already have a (paid) team of translators working on these problems. Although ... I suppose that this form of 'freelance' mob-data-gathering is cheaper and perhaps even more effective, in the final analysis.

'zones,' as in 'zoning areas,' and 'zoning plans,' etc.

Can you give me a clue as to where they are talking about? What do they hope to reach people with?

Hi Kate, Thanks for your input text is as follows: wij verwachten circa 20.000 mensen te kunnen bereiken in de 10 grensdistricten en 6 bestemmingsgbieden.

Perhaps you could give us the context. I certainly don't feel that we can give you anything like a good answer without even the sentence this word is in.
