Any proposed activity or structure requires a land use and /or subdivision consent unless it is a permitted activity and fully complies with all the relevant rules in a district plan, under the Resource Management Act 1991. Our experts will help you analyse the risks, prepare the proposal, and identify strategies for a resource consent. We can liaise with the council and manage the whole process on your behalf.
We will answer questions such as:
- How to maximise the site potential and have a resource consent granted?
- Have I considered all of the development options?
- What is the developable land for new dwellings (or commercial buildings) after considering all the Council’s requirements?
- Is my proposal a permitted activity, or controlled activity, or restricted discretionary activity, or discretionary activity, or non-complying activity, or prohibited activity? What are the implications of each activity?
- Do I need a written approval from my neighbour(s)?
- Do I need specialist report(s) to support my application?
We can provide:
- Development options with cost and benefit analysis
- Assistance with finalising development proposals
- Resource consent and plan change strategies
- Environmental effects assessment
- Planning process management
- Resource consent applications
