Rural Resource Consent

Developing rural land is different- you can’t simply move what you’d usually do in an urban environment and expect that to work and get consented in a rural area. To achieve your rural development goals, you need a team with proven rural development experience.

Planning Plus® work with you to understand how you want to develop rural land and what you want to achieve. We identify site and planning constraints, potential risks, opportunities and formulate solutions. With over 35 combined years’ experience processing resource consent applications for rural development, including being current consultants for Auckland Council, we understand the processes inside out. Rural development is very different to urban development- there is a whole different set of issues your specialists need to be aware of, familiar with, and able to guide you on.

Use land development consultants with rural development experience, to avoid costly mistakes and fundamental issues being missed. Planning Plus™ have been working in rural environments since 2003- there isn’t much we havent seen before! Our 100% consent success rate is something we’re proud of, and we’d love to see your rural development added to it.

We have an extensive network of land development consultants who we’ve worked with in the 60+ combined years we’ve been in the industry. We make sure we get the best fit for you and your rural project- not just whoever is the ‘in- house’ person who may have no or little experience in rural development. We can also manage these specialists’ inputs for you, providing a one- stop- shop service but one with the best rural professionals working with you to create a successful development, whether that be a new use of your rural land or a rural subdivision.
