Thread: Auckland shooting club. Resource consent help

I have a couple of planned service station builds going through the same process, experts up the ying yang clipping the ticket along the way.
Building one now that's going to have a concrete traffic island constructed in the median strip to stop vehicles turning right when the exit the site on a 27,000 vehicles per day road in suburban Auckland and it's been approved by AT and the local ward councilors, it's within 100 mtrs of a major set of traffic lights where right turning traffic backs up 200m in the median strip to let through traffic go straight ahead. It's busy as hell and this new island is going to fair piss the locals off but i'm just the contractor.
The traffic management plan only allows us to work from 11am - 2pm
Shit the only hope is David Seymour ripping into the RC red tape and dickheads dreaming up this shit.

bump.

submissions will be closing in a few days, any help is appreciated.

many thanks

Hi Cyclops
Great insights into the process. A bit cheeky but was wondering if you can help some fellow shooters out with some advice on the process? The club has engaged the experts including lawyer etc but I also think it would be invaluable to get a perspective from someone who sits on the other side of the table. Even just a quick chat by phone would be awesome. More and more clubs will be facing similar issues. We are preparing for the hearing and would appreciate any help immensely. Thanks John

Hi @Johnny.

I'm no expert (a drip under pressure) one should consult a planner or lawyer working in the RMA space - costs $$$$ but generally is worth it.

I've been easing out of things RMA related and could only give general non-professional advice.

@Johnny been in the plannning game for too long myself, but pm me with your q's and details if you want. Happy to assist with planning/process related questions

Thanks, we have engaged all the experts, and are really only seeking general insights into the process from the other side of the table
