Duty Planner Service
Our duty planners can provide planning information such as zoning, rules relevant to that zone and advice on how to apply for resource consent(s) in order to facilitate development projects on specific properties.
The duty planner does not deal with wind zones, interpret records of title, building consent enquiries, or future zone/rule changes. For future zone/rule changes please phone 0800 924 723 and ask to be put through to the Strategic and Policy Planners.
There's generally no cost associated with duty planner enquiries. However, for more complex or ongoing enquiries that exceed 30 minutes, a charge of $145 per hour or as documented in the fees and charges manual may be incurred. The duty planner will advise you before charges start to be incurred.
For more detailed enquiries, our pre-application service may be more appropriate and our duty planner may refer you to this service if it is beyond the scope of the duty planner service.
