Industrial and commercial building design guidelines for developers

Case Studies: Massey North and Hobsonville Corridor Industrial and Employment Areas

What is this guideline?

This guideline is intended to help developers of employment land within the Massey North and Hobsonville Corridor areas. It includes design suggestions over the location and planning of typical land use activities envisaged by the council. These guidelines apply to private land, but the council has a commitment to achieve a high standard of amenity in the public realm.

The guide is non-statutory. It is aimed at communicating typical design ideas that, if used as the starting point in your design process, will help ensure responses are more likely to meet the expectations of all stakeholders.

Where relevant to the circumstance, the council may use the guideline to help it assess resource consent applications pursuant to Section 104(1)(c) of the Resource Management Act 1991.
