D Tipple & T Tipple & M Tipple, have applied to the Tasman District Council for retrospective resource consent for a deck and associated stairway at 38 Kaiteriteri Sandy Bay Road, Kaiteriteri, that also extends down the hillside across an unformed legal road to access the beach below the property.
The site plans show the deck extending to the boundary of 36 Kaiteriteri Sandy Bay Road, 8m at the closest point to the boundary of 44 Kaiteriteri Sandy Bay Road, 4.5m at the closest point to the boundary of the Kaka Point Reserve and almost up to the boundary (no exact measurement is given) of the unformed legal road. Elevations are included with the application that show the deck is over 2m in height (approximately 3.6m at the highest point) and breaches the boundary setback as well as daylight admission with 36 Kaiteriteri Sandy Bay Road.
The structure is located within a Residential Zone, the Land Disturbance Area 2, the Coastal Environment Area (CEA), and a Cultural Heritage Precinct, as defined by the Tasman Resource Management Plan.
Land use consent is required under the Tasman Resource Management Plan (TRMP) for the following reasons:
