A simpler approach to using the City’s District Plan.

The District Plan sets out how the Council wants the city to grow and what landowners can do with their property.

The ePlan allows a user to easily find rules that apply to any property e.g. height restrictions.

ePlan features include the ability to: Filter the District Plan to only show what’s relevant to a specific property. Use a modern map-based interface. See any relevant Plan Changes for a property Generate a property report with area-specific features that apply to a property, for

example hazard areas and heritage features. Click on defined words and see their meaning. Quickly click between sections.
