In the world of construction and development, ensuring compliance with regulations is crucial. At CiviEase, we specialise in helping you navigate the complexities of resource consents, an essential requirement under the Resource Management Act (RMA).
What is Resource Consent?
Resource consent is a formal approval that you must obtain if your building or activity doesn’t meet the standards set out in the District Plan. These standards are in place to manage the impact of development on the environment and local communities. Whether you’re planning a new construction, a renovation, or a change in land use, resource consent ensures that your project aligns with the broader environmental and community goals set by the authorities.
Why is Resource Consent Different from Building Consent?
It’s important to understand the distinction between resource consent and building consent. While building consent is focused on ensuring that your construction work complies with the Building Act and the building code, resource consent deals with the environmental and community impacts of your project. In some cases, your project may require both types of consent, depending on the nature and scope of the work.
