104B: Determination of applications for discretionary or non-complying activities

You could also call this:

“Deciding if you can do something that doesn't fully follow the rules”

When you apply for a resource consent for a discretionary or non-complying activity, the consent authority considers your application. The authority can then choose to grant or refuse your application. If they grant your application, they can also impose conditions under section 108.

You need to know that the consent authority has the power to make these decisions. They look at your application and decide what to do. The authority’s decision is important for your application.

The consent authority’s decision is based on the information you provide. They use this information to decide whether to grant or refuse your application. If granted, the conditions imposed under section 108 must be followed.
