1. Introduction

1.19. Summary

Remember

You need to include enough information in your AEE so that the Council can evaluate your proposal. The amount of information should correspond to the scale and significance of the environmental effects that may be generated by your proposal.

Some proposals will require more detail and analysis than others. For example, adding a carport onto the side of a house is likely to require much less information and detail than a multi storey development in an area that is valued for its natural attributes.
  1. An AEE needs to include:
  2. A full description of the proposal, including the site and locality (including a site plan and plans of your proposal)
  3. A description of the environmental effects, including the significance and nature of the effects (address specific environmental effects that you have identified as well as referring to issues identified in the district and/or regional plan)
  4. A description of alternatives to avoid, remedy or mitigate any significant environmental effects

  5. An assessment of any risks to the environment that may arise from hazardous substances and/or the discharge of contaminants. 

  6. A record of any consultation, including names and views of people you talked with.  

A discussion of any effects that may need to be controlled or monitored, how the control or monitoring will be carried out and by whom.
