77T: Review of financial contributions provisions

You could also call this:

“Local councils can change rules about money contributions for new buildings in their area plans.”

You can choose to add or change rules about financial contributions in your district plan. If you decide to do this, you can include these new rules in a special document called an IPI. The IPI is a document that you need to make public, as explained in section 80F.
