To coincide with the induction of the new Quality Planning
resource consent condition practice guidance note the New
Zealand Planning Institute is running a professional
development course to assist practitioners develop effective
and enforceable resource conditions.
Developing effective and enforceable resource consent
conditions that ensure the actual and potential effects of an
activity are appropriately addressed is fundamental and
critical part of the resource consent process. Too
often this critical element of the resource consent process
is left to the last minute leading to conditions which are
ineffective and unenforceable, generating adverse
environmental effects and creating negative community
reaction.
By the end of the course you will have:
- Gained an understanding of the role and importance of developing effective and enforceable resource consent conditions in the overall resource consent process
- Developed the skills required to create effective and enforceable resource consent conditions which are technically sound and in accordance with the requirements of the RMA
- Developed the ability to ensure that compliance with the conditions will result in any adverse effects being limited to the extent anticipated by the decision-maker
- Learnt to apply consent conditions which enable a range of audiences to understand their impact and what is required to give them effect
The course will be interactive and will include real life
working examples in which you identify the key features
required to create effective and enforceable resource consent
conditions and then critical evaluate your own work in light
of these standards.
Both local and regional consenting issues with are
considered throughout the course, including dealing with
amendments or cancellation to consent conditions, consent
notices, and bonds and financial contributions.
