Resource Consents

Resource consents are often required before you can subdivide, build or undertake earthworks. We prepare and lodge resource consent applications and work with councils and planners to get your project approved.

Survey work in a Central North Island township

A resource consent is permission from your local council to carry out an activity that is not permitted as of right under the district or regional plan — most commonly subdivision, but also some building and land-use activities.

We have experience dealing with the Auckland, Central Hawke's Bay, Horowhenua, Manawatū, Masterton, Palmerston North, Rangitīkei, Rotorua Lakes, Ruapehu, Tararua, Taupō, Turangi, Waipā, Waitomo and Whanganui District Councils. That local knowledge helps us prepare applications that meet each council's requirements and move through the process smoothly.
