Resource Management

Consents & Related Processes

Obtaining resource consent is the first stage in land subdivision,  and can be a pre-requisite to building development and establishment of new business ventures. Our resource management division offers property development advice, and assistance in obtaining resource consents.

Land development is not only associated with subdivision. We can assist in related processes – such as District Plan Submission, Plan Change Requests and Structure Plans, designations, advice on Council Long Term Plans and Certificates of Compliance – which often have longer term objectives for clients.

More than just Land Development

Our involvement in resource management encompasses far more than land development. It may also relate to river and water resources, conservation estate, the coastal environment, community events, recreational opportunities and air quality.

In addition to our knowledge in interpreting and negotiating resource management plans and the resource consent process, we will consult with Councils, affected parties and other interested persons in order to best facilitate favorable and cost effective outcomes for our clients.

The scale of our projects can vary enormously. We are just as comfortable helping private property owners as we are being part of or leading multi-disciplinary project teams in a collaborative approach to resource management issues and projects.
