Resource Consent Management

The impact of delays in the Resource Consent process on property projects is well documented. Delays cause costs of extra finance, potential loss of tenants or purchasers, exposure to inflationary effects on construction and other key costs and delays in realisation of returns to the developer.

Greenstone Group has many years of managing the resource consent process for numerous projects. Our role is to manage the consultant team to achieve the best result for the client. We can recommend and manage a wide range of consent types, from non-notified through to full environment court applications.

The benefit of having a lead manager such as Greenstone Group is the focus we bring on behalf of our client to achieving the best outcomes for the client. During the consent process, daily communication and management of this team of consultants will deliver the best consent result. Using our expertise will save time and money.

We take a lead role so that the consent application best fits the aspirations and risk profile of our clients. We manage the process from inception, then through the pre-application and urban design process, through the council assessment process to conclusion.

Our advice highlights potential savings in project time and risk via alternate consent processes. We can do this by negotiating key terms with council (and affected parties and neighbours) ahead of time, splitting applications into multiple stages, and other relevant strategies.

We are able to provide programmes, cashflows and budgets for the consent process for our clients.

As part of the resource consent management process we manage:

  • Applications to local and regional councils
  • Resource planners
  • Architects and designers
  • Landscape designers
  • Urban designers
  • Traffic and parking assessments and Transit NZ issues
  • Economic impact analysis
  • Other relevant consultants to specific projects
