Resource Consent Applications

We may be able to help you if you are applying for a Resource Consent in the Tinopai Rohe/Area and within the Coastal Marine Area. 

​

Our kaupapa/philosophy is respect, communication, common sense which is aligned with our Maori customary practices that incorporate history, knowledge and values of Maori society. 

​

We will adhere to Ss 5-8 of the Resource Management Act Purpose and Principles - the heart of the act. 

​

The rest will be based on your property, our historical knowledge of your property, a walkover of your property, and a property management plan (if required).

​

If any of the following areas apply to your Resource Consent application, contact us:
