So How Does It Work?
This subdivision has been allowed in the Rural Production Zone because it utilises a Management Plan structure. A Management Plan has specific features and requirements which give a superior outcome for the use of the land than when compared to the standard District Council zone requirements.
Our aim is to create a cohesive development with shared values, at the same time as allowing for individual variation.
The requirements give sensible guidelines on how the land and sites are developed, maintaining the amenity value for all to enjoy. They cover such things as pets, plantings, and design recommendations.
The requirements are clearly detailed in supporting documents for easy reference - to learn more about these resources, please contact us.
Meeting of the requirements will be co-ordinated between the owners of the twelve lots via a small Residents Association.
-
The tikanga/culture of the Residents Association is:
- to create a peaceful place to live
- where Members are considerate of each other
- with a co-ordinated, cohesive approach in undertaking environmental restoration and maintenance of the area
- while having as few compulsory commitments as possible, but with opportunities for involvement where desired.At an AGM each year, the members decide what maintenance and development they would like to have done in the common areas and how that will be done. An annual levy of $1000 per year [CPI adjusted] per Lot will be used for this, with voluntary contributions of time from members, if they desire.
We recognise that people will have different levels of available time and energy for volunteering. It is not compulsory.
