Dear Cam
RESOURCE CONSENT APPLICATION – WP180323T
The Council met today and resolved that the application is to be publicly notified in accordance with
s95A(9) of the RMA.
Once notified, section 97 of the RMA allows any person interested in your application to lodge a
submission within 20 working days of notification of the application. Submissions may either be
opposing, supporting or neutral.
The cost of processing publically notified resource consent applications (including the hearing) varies
considerably. Most notified applications would typically fall within the range of $25,000 to $50,000,
depending on the number and scope of any opposing submissions. This is an
estimation of the
costs only and does not include the cost of consultants or other experts that you may choose to
engage yourself. Council staff will be able to give you a more accurate estimate of the likely cost
after the submission period ends.
In accordance with the Council’s Annual Plan, a further deposit of $5,750.00 (including GST) is now
required before notification of your application can occur. Payment instructions are available on our
website
(https://www.hbrc.govt.nz/our-council/about-council/contact-us/make-a-payment/) or from
the consents advisor (email: [email address]), or if you choose to withdraw the
application, please advise us of this in writing.
The application is now on hold (processing days excluded) under section 36(7) of the RMA, Council
will proceed with notification of your application once this charge has been paid in full. Once payment
is received a public advertisement will open a 20 working day period for people to lodge submissions
on your application. We will send you notice of the advertisement and once submissions close a
summary of these submissions will be sent to you.
If you have queries please do not hesitate to contact me
Yours faithfully,
Malcolm Miller
