Vacant Residential Land

This report presents a summary of the Vacant Residential Land Register at the end of June 2000. The vacant land register was originally compiled in 1981 by the Canterbury United Council from records supplied by the then existing local authorities. The responsibility for the maintenance of the vacant land register was transferred to the Christchurch City Council in 1992. There are two separate parts to the vacant land register. The industrial component lists all vacant industrial land. The residential component (reported here) lists all vacant residential properties and vacant undeveloped land. The vacant residential land register was migrated to a GIS in the year to June 1998 and has subsequently been maintained in this system.
