Types of Resource Consents
There are five different types of resource consents which can be granted, depending on the kind of activity proposed: land use consent, subdivision consent, coastal permit, water permit and discharge permit. In some cases, a resource consent will be required unless the activity is expressly authorised by district or regional plan. In other cases, the activity only requires a resource consent if it contravenes a rule in a regional or district plan. The RMA does make provision for activities to be carried out (in certain cases) notwithstanding the fact that they contravene a rule in the relevant regional or district plan. This is where the activity is expressly allowed in terms of a resource consent or regulations or is an existing use.
