Resource Consents
Activities that don’t fall under the rules of the District Plan may need a resource consent.
The resource consent process is to assess the effects of such activities on people and/or the environment. Council can either grant a consent with conditions or decline a consent in order to manage or avoid adverse effects.
On these pages, you'll find out what activities commonly need a resource consent and how you can apply for a consent (including what information you need to provide and who can help you).
There's also information about current resource consent applications and how you can find out about or raise issues with any other developments that may be occurring around you.
