Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on LinkedinEmail this link
This consultation closed on 9 May 2022. Thank you for having your say.
The council’s preliminary response to the NPS-UD and amendments to the RMA is now outdated and has been superseded by proposed Plan Change 78 – Intensification.
Submissions on proposed Plan Change 78 - Intensification (PC78) are open from 18 August to 29 September 2022. You can view the plan change and make a submission here.
Submissions are also open on proposed Plan Changes 79-83, which are complementary to PC78, on matters relating to the Auckland Unitary Plan’s Regional Policy Statement, transport and access, historic heritage items, and notable trees. You can view these plan changes and make a submission here – www.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz/planchanges
We sought feedback on the proposed changes to the Auckland Unitary Plan that we have scope to make limited decisions on. We did not seek feedback on the mandatory changes the Government has directed us to make, such as having walkable catchments or six-storey building heights. See the Government’s new housing rules: What it means for AucklandConsultation Document for detailed information.
We received 7,860 pieces of feedback. These came via our online feedback forms, at virtual Have Your Say events and through email.
We also held 4 online and 2 in-person information sessions where members of the public could hear from the planning team and ask questions before providing feedback.

What is happening now
In August and September 2022, you can make a submission on plan change 78 so that your views are considered during the statutory decision-making process. We publicly notified the plan change on 18 August 2022
What happens next
Once the submissions process has closed, an Independent Hearings Panel (IHP) will consider all submissions and hear directly from the people who submitted. They will then make recommendations to us on the necessary changes to the Auckland Unitary Plan.
We must then decide to accept or reject the IHP recommendations. If a recommendation is rejected, the Minister for the Environment makes the final decision.
This statutory process does not allow for appeals to the Environment Court.
