IntroductionPROPOSED VARIATION NO. 1 TO THE CHRISTCHURCH CITY PROPOSED DISTRICT PLAN MATTERS INCLUDED IN "ERRATA : AMENDMENT NO. 1 (24 JUNE 1995)" The Christchurch City Council has prepared Variation No. 1 to the Christchurch City Proposed District Plan. The nature of the Variation is as follows: * The issue has been raised with the Council that the errata issued with the Proposed District Plan may not be legally valid in terms of the provisions of the Act. * The Council does not necessarily accept that submission. As a precautionary measure and to resolve any potential uncertainty the Council is notifying this Variation covering the same amendments contained in the "Errata : Amendment No 1 (24 June 1995)" issued with the Proposed City Plan when notified. * These amendments were included in the replacement pages dated 1 August 1995 that have already been circulated to those who hold copies of the Proposed Plan. (Note that notwithstanding this Variation, the Council will for all purposes consider the Proposed Plan as that notified, including the errata). |
* The amendments relate to a large number of different parts of the Plan. The majority are simply clarifications and corrections of obvious errors, with no change in the effect of the Plan provisions. Other amendments do change the effect of the Plan provisions and are intended to bring those provisions in line with the intentions of the Plan (eg consistency with objectives, policies, explanations or other rules in the Plan).
The Variation and an Assessment may be inspected during normal opening hours at any Council library and the following Council Offices:
Any person may make a submission on Variation No 1 to the Proposed City Plan. Submissions must be in writing and on the form prescribed (Form 3) in the Resource Management (Forms) Regulations 1991 or similar. Forms are available from the Council Offices listed above. Note: Any submission that has already been made on a provision in the Proposed Plan affected by this Variation is deemed to be a submission on this Variation.
Once all submissions have been received the Council will prepare and publicly notify a summary of the submissions. All the submissions will be available for public inspection. There will be an opportunity for anyone to make a submission in support or opposition to any of these submissions. Council hearings will then be arranged to consider all submissions and decisions will be made. Anyone who has made a submission will have the right to attend the hearings and to present his or her submission. Generally anyone who has made a submission also has the right of appeal against a Council decision to the Planning Tribunal. Once all submissions and appeals have been resolved the Proposed Variation will be made operative.
The closing date for submissions is Friday 12 July 1996 at Civic Offices before 4.30pm or any other Council Office before 5pm.
