PLEASE NOTE:
The compliance schedules provided on the Council website or through any other means are the sole responsibility and property of the owner. These schedules are issued to assist owners in meeting their regulatory and compliance obligations.
While we provide these schedules as a helpful resource, it is the owner's duty to ensure they are followed and maintained accurately. We recommend regular reviews and updates to these schedules to reflect any changes in regulations, legislation changes, or other relevant factors.
We do not take any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of the compliance schedules. Owners should consult with legal or compliance professionals to confirm that their schedules meet all necessary requirements and standards.
By using these compliance schedules, owners acknowledge and accept full responsibility for their implementation and upkeep.
For more information, on sections 100-110, Building Act 2004: Building Act 2004 No 72 (as at 23 December 2023), Public Act – New Zealand Legislation
Ensuring Security and Compliance
We take the security and privacy of buildings and occupants very seriously. All reasonable steps have been implemented to restrict direct access to the compliance schedule for any sensitive and secure buildings within our district. To obtain a copy of the compliance schedule, a formal request must be submitted to the Territorial Authority (TA). This measure is in place to uphold the highest standards of security and compliance.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
