District Plan Review - Stage Four

District Plan Review

Mackenzie District Council is updating the Mackenzie District Plan to ensure the district can grow in a sustainable way, while protecting the things that make the area so special.

A District Plan is essentially the rule book that sets district-wide rules for sustainably managing how people use, subdivide and develop land, what and where they can build and also what kind of activities they can undertake without being required to obtain a resource consent.

The Mackenzie District Plan largely became operative in 2004, and many elements are well out of date and do not meet our statutory requirements under the Resource Management Act 1991. This means Council is required by law to meet certain obligations.

Have your say

The Stage Four survey has now closed. Thank you to everyone who took the time to complete it!

We’ll be using the feedback we receive to help fine tune the preferred approaches before taking them to Council for approval.

It’s important to note that all this is happening before we formally notify any plan change. Once that happens a formal consultative process begins - so there are plenty of opportunities to have your say through this process.
