District Plan Review

Council is in the process of reviewing its District Plan, while Environment Southland is also reviewing its Regional Policy Statement. Both Councils have decided to work together in the initial consultation stages of the two Plan reviews. 

This collaborative approach has resulted in a series of 13 Issues and Options papers.

These papers were consulted on earlier this year. This initial consultation phase is the first opportunity for both Southland District Council and Environment Southland to engage with the wider community and stakeholders on resource management issues, and explore how second generation planning documents may address these issues.

The full issues and options papers, summaries and report cards can be downloaded from the link below. Papers are also available in hard copy and if requested can be obtained on CD. Please contact either Council.

A Community Debrief document summarising the feedback from the consultation on the issues and options papers will be released at the beginning of November.
