Resource consent specialists
Feathers Planning are a niche planning business with a focus on efficiently and successfully taking you through any resource management process. We supply resource management (aka town planning) services, and work with select professionals in the industry to pull together a team that is tailored for your project. There is no project too big or too small.
With a focus on expert preparation of resource consent applications and the acquisition of resource consent approval, our goal is to ensure your application is a success in a timely and cost effective manner. Resource consents are the link between the conceptual stage of a project and the physical, benefit generating reality. It is that legal document that can increase the value and marketability of your project/property, that will let you start building your dream home, or enable you to get your business up and running.
Expert Preparation
Our key focus is the expert preparation of resource consent applications and the acquisition of the subsequent approvals.
These are the documents needed to move your project or concept to a physical, benefit-generating reality and we're passionate about providing these key components in a timely and cost-effective manner.
Any size, any location
At any one time, we have a diverse portfolio of projects – residential, commercial, community, industrial, rural and heritage. These range in size and scope from adding a garage to a residential property, to master planning exercises in Structure Plan areas.
While we've worked on projects throughout New Zealand, we're passionate about seeing our local region grow and thrive; and our years of experience with the different local Councils means we have developed solid relationships with staff and a strong reputation as being a professional planning firm.
Assisting organisations within the local community is also important to Feathers Planning, and every year we look to partner with charitable organisations to assist them with a planning project.
