FAQ
Will the sections have services running to them?
Yes – roading, water, sewerage, electricity, telephone and broadband internet services to the boundary
Is there a Geotech report?
Yes, LDE have completed a Geotech engineering report. The report is available to download here
What sort of foundation will be required?
The report therefore concludes that there is no requirement for a TC2 foundation at the site. “The foundations for the buildings are expected to be founded within the high strength residual soils. This is expected to enable shallow conventional concrete NZS3604 (2011) and NZS4429 (2013) designs to be used with no modification necessary. Conventional waffle slabs can also be constructed without modification.”
When can I view the section?
Timing?
Physical works have now commenced and are scheduled to be finished 14 July 2023. At that point the Central Hawkes Bay District Council can issue an infrastructure completion certificate (known as the 224c certificate). This is expected to be issued in August 2023. Titles are usually issued by LINZ around one month after the 224c certificate is issued.
Are there any restrictions on what I can build?
Are new relocatable dwellings allowed?
Yes, but we have limiting the number and sites upon which they are permitted. A maximum of 7 sites may be developed with relocatable dwellings. The dwellings must be brand new. They must have a floor area of 95m² plus detached garage.
Are double storey dwellings allowed?
To protect sunlight to other properties, only the four sites along the southern edge of the subdivision may be double storey. The others must be single storey.
