Council Responses to NPS-UD & MDRS
Auckland Council's PC78 aligns with government urban development directives, open for submissions until September 29, 2022, with online submissions suggested and Planner assistance recommended for zoning or constraint adjustments.
Auckland Council have notified Plan Change 78 (PC78), in response to the National Policy Statement on Urban Development (NPS-UD) and more recently the government’s directives to introduce Medium Density Residential Standards (MDRS) as part of the Resource Management (Enabling Housing Supply and Other Matters) Amendment Act 2021.
Submissions on the Plan Change are open now, until 29 September 2022. Anyone can make an online submission via the Council website, however for sites that seek to be included in a different zone or excluded from a current constraint or Qualifying Matter, we recommend a Planner prepare the submission to provide further investigation and detailed assessment to support the changes sought.
