Mt Wellington subdivision and development
The Mt Wellington code of subdivision and development (September 2008) guides
the development of the former quarry ("Stonefields"). It is a non-statutory
document that is to be read in conjunction with the District Plan: Isthmus
Section, which sets out the statutory assessment criteria for subdivision and
development.
District Plan - Isthmus
section
The code is primarily focused on the engineering services and standards that
support the use of private land and the form, quality and service standards of
public spaces including streetscapes and reserves. It uses a combination of
guidelines, specifications and minimum requirements to ensure the high standard
of environmental outcomes intended for the quarry.
Subdivision and engineering approvals will be assessed against the contents
of the code and should be used by:
- those undertaking development and building work in the quarry
- engineers, architects, surveyors, and planners involved in development
applications and development works
- Council officers
- the Urban Design Panel
- planning commissioners.
