Explanatory notes

This schedule lists proposed modifications to the operative parts of the District Plan. The status of ‘outstanding’ matters (not operative) in the plan is listed separately in Schedule A of the District Plan.
This Schedule of Modifications-current will be updated regularly with the most recent modification shown at the beginning of the schedule.
‘Notice of requirement’ means a notice of intention to have land designated for a public work e.g. a ‘school’ as described in Part VIII of the Resource Management Act.
Plan changes can be council or privately initiated. Council plan changes generally have immediate effect but private plan changes do not have any status or effect until they have been upheld following the formal submissions and decision-making process.
Variations 64 (Long Bay Structure Plan) - now withdrawn and superseded by Variation 66 - and 65 (Bayswater marina land) to the proposed district plan are listed in Schedule A, Table 3 at the front of Volume 1 of the district plan. Variations remain in a proposed state, until resolved.
