Appeals

Find out about the appeals on the 2024 District Plan.

Appeals on 12 June 2025 decisions

The Council notified decisions on Part One, Schedule One (standard planning process) provisions heard as part of hearings stream 6-11 on 7 July 2025.

The appeal period for these provisions closes at 5pm on 18 August 2025.

People who made a submission on the Proposed District Plan have the ability to appeal to the Environment Court if:

  • they referred to the provision or matter in their submission or further submission;
  • the appeal does not seek the withdrawal of the Proposed District Plan as a whole;
  • the appeal is in the prescribed form and lodged with the Environment Court; and
  • they serve notice on others.

Following the close of the appeal period, there is a 15-day period within which other parties can join an appeal proceeding. This is restricted to those who made a submission on the subject matter of the appeal or who have an interest greater than the general public.

Wellington City Council does not conduct the appeal process and is party to the proceedings. Direct any correspondence on the process to the Environment Court.
