The National Policy Statement on Urban Development 2020 (NPS-UD) sets out objectives and policies for urban development under the Resource Management Act 1991. Councils must give effect to these objectives and policies.
The Marlborough District Council is considered ‘Tier 3’ under the NPS-UD, we are not required to complete the full monitoring requirements of a Tier 1 or 2 council, instead we are strongly encouraged to monitor development within our urban environments.
The purpose of this dashboard is to monitor urban development activity in Marlborough, with a particular focus on Blenheim as the region’s largest urban centre.
Council monitors a range of indicators quarterly but summarises and reports on these on an annual basis using information from the dashboard and associated sources, the dashboard provides a graphical representation of these indicators.
All data sources (and attribution) are listed in the relevant dashboards.
The following reports track and measure indicators for residential and commercial development activity including building and resource consents, sales prices, affordability, and the rate of development. These reports help to give effect to Councils obligations under the NPS-UD.
The three-yearly Housing and Business Development Capacity Assessment measures the supply of land zoned for residential and non-residential activity in Blenheim relative to anticipated demand over the next 30 years.
