Why do I require a consent form?
All local councils use Land & Building Consents to monitor and approve all works that are covered by the Resource Management Act or the Building Code. Each council has a different way of managing consents. This can be a very confusing process.
Consents can be divided into two main types:
Building Consents – The approval needed for restricted construction work as per the
Building Code, and residential work that requires sign-off by a LBP (Licensed Building Professional).
Resource Consents – Governed by the Resource Management Act. This relates to any changes made in the land use as dictated by local councils district plans. It is always a good idea to contact your local council and confirm the requirements of your project.
