Questions

In the year to September 2026, Stats NZ counted 41 new homes consented in the Rangitikei District council area, with $23.2m of residential and $33.6m 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?
