If you are doing any building work, including alterations and additions, installing a swimming pool, solar panel or fireplace, or embarking on a major subdivision development, you will need consent from the council. We process building and resource consents (land use and subdivision) and offer a centralised service for development activities.
This section gives you details on how to make an application for resource and building consents and includes application forms, and information on fees and deposits.
We encourage you to make use of our free (in the first instance) information service, either though the Environmental Services helpdesk phone (09) 486 8600 or by visiting Environmental Services at 521 Lake Road, Takapuna.
If you would like to lodge a building consent application electronically or find out the status of a current application please use the links under the Do It Online panel on the right.
