Week 4 - Land

Subdivision consent

You need to obtain resource consent under the relevant district plan or Proposed Auckland Unitary Plan for subdivision activities, including:

• Creation of a new freehold title
• Creation of a cross-lease
• Creation of a unit title development, for example a block of flats
• adjustment to a boundary.

A subdivision consent will normally have a number of conditions which may require building consent and engineering approvals.

As well as fulfilling these other requirements, you will need to engage a licensed cadastral surveyor to prepare the necessary scheme/survey plan.
