Northlake Wanaka : Plan Change 45
Queenstown Lakes District Council called for public submissions on the Northlake Plan Change by John Edmonds and Associates for the land owner Michaela Ward Meehan. The following is my rushed submission to QLDC.
Wanaka Town Centre Character Guideline
The Wanaka Town Centre Character Guideline was formally adopted by the QLDC Strategy Committee last Tuesday so it is now an operative document. Although it has no statutory standing it will inform future versions of the district plan particularly in terms of bulk and height limits within the town centre.
Rural Zoning Discussion Document
The Queenstown Lakes District Council recently gave the community the opportunity to comment on the success of the current Rural Zoning. I am primarily concerned with the Rural Living Zones and in particular the Rural Residential Zone.
Resource Consent Nightmares
Never expect a Resource Consent Application to go smoothly even if you expect it to be a mere formality. A recent application demonstrated this.
