Proposed fees and charges for planning and miscellaneous services

Submissions closed on 28 April 2023, 05:00 PM

Council's HQ is a brutalist concrete building typical of the early 70s.

We review fees and charges for Council services every year. This enables Council to be satisfied that they are transparent, fair and reasonable, and market comparable.

As a result of the most recent review, we're proposing increases to the fees and charges we make for planning and miscellaneous services by 7%, to keep pace with increasing operating costs.

There are a number of exceptions, especially with the introduction of flat fees for some types of activity and, in particular, small-scale resource consents.

For more information and the schedule of proposed fees and charges, download the document below.
