Variation 7: Urban Residential Four
Marlborough District Council is proposing to introduce a new planning framework for Medium Density Housing in a greenfields situation, referred to as Urban Residential Four (UR4). This will include new provisions, policy, and accompanying zone rule framework.
Medium Density Housing is residential development with an average lot size smaller than the existing Urban Residential One (UR1) minimum lot size of 290m2 and lot widths narrower than the UR1 zone minimum lot width of 14m. It is limited to single-and double-storey buildings.
Neither the Operative Wairau Awatere Management Plan or current Proposed Marlborough Environment Plan (PMEP) provisions manage the density of development that is proposed by Medium Density Housing.
Reports, hearing details and other related information will be posted on the hearing portal as they become available.
The variation was publicly notified on 17 April 2024 and submissions closed on 14 May 2024.
The Summary of Submissions was notified on 9 August 2024.
The further submission period closes at 5.00 pm on 22 August 2024.
