All no spray zones shall be managed in accordance with
NZ Transport Agency ‘C21: Specication for Vegetation Control’

between the property boundary and formed road,
and up to 10m from the road reserve into the property
boundary.

excess roadside vegetation. This includes a minimum

road edge and drainage channel inverts. The vegetation
height should not exceed 300mm above the berm
around these areas.
• Maintain any stormwater drainage ditches and keep
clear of pest plants and excess vegetation such that
stormwater ow is not impeded.
The area to be excluded from chemical control is from the road
centerline to the boundary of the applicant’s property, and the
agreed length of property frontage.
In the instance of the no spray zone property failing to comply
with this goodwill agreement, the applicant shall be notied and
given one month to bring the property frontage up to standard.
If the work is not completed within the allowed timeframe,
Council will take action to bring the zone back up to standard
