Notes to Applicants:
1. A Certificate of Compliance can only be issued where all details of the proposal submitted comply fully with the rules of the Gore
District Plan and any relevant National Environment Standard. The applicant must provide sufficient information to enable
assessment of all relevant rules in the District Plan.
2. Includes plans showing any changes proposed to the layout of activities and structure on the site. Also include additional pages if
insufficient space is available to respond to any information requested.
3. The Council may be able to issue a Certificate of Compliance for parts of a proposal where other parts require resource consent for
approval. Discussions should be held with the Gore District Council Planning Services to ensure correct procedures are being followed.
4. A Certificate of Compliance cannot be issued where a proposed plan or plan change has been notified and the activity could not be
lawfully carried out without resource consent under that plan or change plan.
5. Requests for Certificates of Compliance are proposed on a cost recovery basis for the actual time taken by the Council to assess the
request. Providing detailed responses to all matters listed on this form will assist in minimising costs to the applicant.
