Questions

How many building consents were issued in Coromandel?

In the year to September 2026, Stats NZ counted 161 new homes consented in the Thames-Coromandel District council area, with $163m of residential and $11.6m of non-residential building work.

What is a building consent?

Written approval from a council (a building consent authority) that planned building work complies with the Building Code. Most new buildings, additions, structural alterations, fires and plumbing and drainage work need one; some minor work is exempt under Schedule 1 of the Building Act 2004.

Where do these figures come from?
