Swedish term or phrase: prickad mark
Example sentences:

Fastigheten Haken 15 används bl.a. för uppställning av stadsbussar.
Tidsbegränsat bygglov har beviljats för enkla byggnader avsedda för kompressorer, elrum, nätstation, värmeväxlare och lager placerade på mark som ej får bebyggas, **prickad mark**. Syftet med detaljplanen är att ändra den så att byggnaderna inte strider mot detaljplanen. Detta innebär att planbestämmelsen mark som inte får bebyggas justeras. Därefter kan permanent bygglov beviljas för byggnaderna när det tidsbegränsade bygglovet går ut maj 2013.

neutral  Yngve Roennike: Does dotted land have the connotation of being off-limits, which is somehow inherent in the word prickad in Swedish?
