Proposed Plan Change 5 (Private) – 100 and 110 Te Moana Road, Waikanae

Council has received a private plan change request from Eric, Vince and Raechel Osborne (“the requestor”) to change the District Plan in relation to 100 and 110 Te Moana Road, Waikanae (“the site”).

On p.14 of the section 32 evaluation report [PDF 5.73 MB] accompanying the private plan change request, the requestor states that:

“The purpose and objective of the PPC is to rezone the application site (of approximately 5.5ha) from General Rural Zone to General Residential Zone under the District Plan in order to provide residential housing capacity in a District where growth pressure exists.”

Status of this Plan Change under Government’s Plan Stop requirements

Section 80U of the Resource Management Act 1991 (RMA), as amended by the Resource Management (Consenting and Other System Changes) Amendment Act 2025, requires councils to withdraw proposed plan changes (and other planning instruments) that have not yet reached a hearing, unless they are covered by an automatic exemption under the Act or have been granted an exemption by the Minister.

Proposed Plan Change 5 is a private plan change request. The plan change is therefore automatically exempt under section 80U(3) of the RMA and may continue to progress under this exemption.

Under section 80Y of the RMA, councils are also required to give public notice on the status of proposed plan changes.
