District Plan

The District Plan contains our objectives, policies, rules and maps for managing activities and development in the city.

We’re in the early stages of reviewing and updating our District Plan – the city’s main document for managing land use and development.

This page gives links to the District Plan, including District Plan maps.

The District Plan is subject to ongoing monitoring and review throughout its lifetime.

This is how requiring authorities designate land for a particular activity, often a public work.

Fees and charges for District Plan changes. Fees and charges include Goods and Services Tax (GST).
