Auckland Unitary Plan

The Auckland Unitary Plan is a comprehensive framework guiding how land in Auckland can be developed, used, and protected. It sets rules for building heights, density, zoning, environmental preservation, and infrastructure to support sustainable growth. The plan aims to balance development needs with community well-being, environmental health, and transport, ensuring Auckland evolves in an organized and manageable way. It replaces previous local rules with a unified approach, providing clarity for residents, developers, and decision-makers about what is permissible in different areas.
