This proposed Development Code (the Code) provides a means of compliance with the District Plan, and will be used when designing, constructing and maintaining engineering works that are required:
- to fulfil conditions imposed by a resource consent, or
- for works that fall within the requirements of the District Plan, or
- if a consent is not required such as a permitted activity condition, or
- for capital or maintenance works commissioned by Council.
The Code is one document, divided into two main sections, Design and Construction, and is now available for consultation purposes, in accordance with the LGA. It is intended that the Code will ultimately replace Council’s Code of Practice for Subdivision and Development.
Consultation closed 24 April 2009.
Submissions have been received and a final version of the code will be finalised in August/September 2009.
