Resource Consents
When you undertake development or a new activity on your property it can affect your neighbours and the environment. The District Plan places limits on the effects your activity or development can have. If you exceed these limits you need to apply for resource consent.
It's a good idea to come and chat to us before you start. This can save you time and money later on.
We have a duty planner available each day. They can talk through your project with you and provide advice on what District Plan rules apply. They can also provide advice on the resource consent process, or changes you could make so you don't need resource consent.
Contact the duty planner on planning@hurunui.govt.nz or 03 314 8816. Or pop into the Council Office at 66 Carters Road, Amberley to talk to a duty planner in person.
