2009 Development Code

The 2009 Development Code provides a means of compliance when designing, constructing and maintaining engineering works that are required

to fulfil conditions imposed by a resource consent
for works that fall within the requirements of the District Plan, if a consent is
not required such as a permitted activity condition
for capital or maintenance works commissioned by Council.

The works apply to urban, rural residential and rural applications. Any alternative means of compliance submitted for approval (i.e. different design methods or philosophy or principles) will be considered on a case by case basis.

The Code is one document, divided into two main sections, Design and Construction
