If we are still processing your application, contact us if you plan to make changes to your proposal. If you want to make changes to a granted resource consent, you'll need to make a formal application.
You need to let us know if you change aspects of the work that is consented.
If the consented activity changes, for example the extent of earthworks required, or the landscaping, you must notify us in writing using the appropriate form.
We cannot make changes to your legal consent document without an application from you, even if you have previously discussed the change with our staff.
To make a change, you need to submit a written application.
It is also important to keep us informed if anything goes wrong. We can help you resolve your problem faster, safer and with less stress.
By keeping us informed, we can help with any concerns that the wider public may also have.
If you are not an approved credit account customer, provide a completed resource consent declaration form as part of your online application.
You can apply for a change or cancellation of a condition of your consent, except for a condition limiting the duration of the consent. To change the consent duration, see Extension of time of a resource consent.
We only accept online applications for changes to resource consents. If you are unable to apply digitally, visit one of our libraries with council services for assistance in making your online application.
If there is no way to provide digital copies of your plans or documents, visit one of our libraries with council services. Our staff will accept your documents for an additional charge. The charge covers costs involved with us scanning your documents into our digital consent system.
Call us on 09 301 0101 to speak with our building and planning help desk if you have questions regarding your application.
