Our planners, engineers and surveyors have been involved in this consent since inception. Limited notified to neighbours and a contentious hearing with legal and planning representation for the neighbours. Consent has been approved with the development being 55% coverage in the MHU zone with infringements to height and height in relation to boundary. The permitted baseline was key in determining the actual effects of the proposal and #MonkMcKenzie did a fantastic job of plan documentation illustrating key differences. A very happy client with a lot more GFA than permitted who trusted in the original design and advice on how to maximise the site. Looking forward to seeing this one come out of the ground with our engineers and surveyors continuing to be involved in the development.

CIVIX planning, engineering and surveying teams recently obtained non-notified resource consent in Point Chevalier for the partial demolition of several unsympathetic building additions to a historic heritage building. The demolition will result in the historic shop more closely reflecting its original building form and footprint, noting it is also proposed to be relocated on site, re-piled and renovated sympathetically so that the rear of the property can provide four high quality residential units. Construkt Architects and Archifact provided significant technical expertise and design input, noting Councils Heritage Team opposed the proposed demolition extent and on-site residential interface, however the Independent Duty Commissioner supported the justification and expert design rationale provided by the consultant team. We were fortunate to have such great clients who supported our decision making, even when this wasn’t easy, and we’re all super excited to see this one progress quickly in the near future!
