Matters for Control
The Council will limit its control to the following matters:
(a) The quantity and type of material to be deposited and measures employed to protect against dust nuisance.
(b) The extent and location of the area to be filled.
(c) The design and location of access to the site and tipping area.
(d) The number of vehicle movements per day, including number of vehicles

(e) The hours of operation and the duration of the operation.
(f) Noise attenuation measures
(g) Landscaping and reinstatement measures.
(h) Site stability.
(i) The protection of significant natural features such as trees, bush, waterways and significant landforms, and features identified as SNAs on the Planning Maps.
7.11.1.2 Assessment Criteria Assessment Criteria
In order to exercise its control the Council will require applicants to provide a Management Plan addressing matters set out in the assessment criteria.
When considering an application the Council will have regard to the following criteria:
Off-site effects (a) Whether off site effects such as noise, dust, vibration, and traffic generation will adversely affect or inhibit the use of the surrounding land for productive purposes or for the carrying out of any permitted, controlled or approved restricted discretionary or discretionary activity.
Amenity values (b) Whether off-site effects such as noise, dust, vibration and traffic generation adversely affect the amenity values of sites in the vicinity.
Traffic effects (c) Whether the number or timing of vehicle movements adversely affects road and traffic safety and efficiency.
Visual effects (d) Whether there are adverse visual impacts on significant landscapes or natural features.
Restoration or rehabilitation programme
(e) Whether any restoration or rehabilitation programme will enable the land to be used for productive purposes or returned to some other state suitable for permitted, controlled or approved restricted discretionary or discretionary activities.
Note: Separate consent approvals may be required from the Auckland Regional Council. The applicant should contact that agency.
Mitigation measures (f) Whether measures are taken to manage and mitigate adverse effects on trees, bush, waterways and significant landforms, and whether works in Significant Natural Areas as defined on the Planning Maps and riparian margins are avoided and these areas physically and legally protected.
Significant Natural Areas (g) Whether the works proposed in an area identified as a Significant Natural Area as defined in the Planning Maps are undertaken in such a manner and at such times as to have no adverse effect, or minimum adverse

(i) nesting, feeding and breeding of species; (ii) biological processes;
(iii) connections between ecosystems; (iv) the diversity of species;
(v) the habitat of threatened or protected species; (vi) cumulative effects.

Assessment Criteria — Okura Policy Area
Assessment Criteria — Okura Policy Area
(a) All controlled activities
(i) Buildings and structures should not require extensive landform modification, but rather be sited so as to utilise the existing landform as a basis as far as is practicable so as to minimise landscape impacts and discharge of silt. Access and servicing should also involve minimal earthworks/ landform modification and any effects of providing access and servicing should be mitigated.
(ii) Earthworks should not increase the potential for erosion, instability, flooding and/or sediment to enter streams and watercourses to occur.
(iii) Earthworks should not affect or contribute to the degradation of the quality of streams and watercourses or marine reserves.
(iv) Any increase in impervious surfaces should not result in:
• Siltation, sedimentation, or a reduction in the quality of streams and watercourses
• A reduction in the quality of the marine reserve/ coastal marine area • An increase in stream channel erosion potential.
(v) Runoff or stormwater from the development or activity should not result in siltation, sedimentation, or a reduction the quality of streams and watercourses.
(vi) Any runoff or stormwater from the development or activity should not result in a reduction in the quality of the marine reserve/ coastal marine area.
(vii) Runoff should not increase stream channel erosion potential.
(viii) Vegetation removal should not increase the potential for erosion and instability and/or sediment to enter streams and watercourses.
(ix) A replanting plan must be prepared and implemented which compensates for the removal of vegetation.

Rural : Chapter 7 119(x) Buildings and structures should be located, and be of a scale and form, that results in a rural and non-urban character being maintained. No building or structure should result in the visual impression of urban development within the "greenbelt" in south-eastern Rodney, and sites should be landscaped accordingly.
(xi) Buildings and structures shall be located so that the highest point of any building or structure is below that of the natural landform of any ridge or hill on which it is sited or is immediately adjacent, and so that the highest point of any building or structure is below that of any existing native trees or stand of native trees or bush screening the building site from any public road. Where there will be more than one building on a site, the cumulative effect of the buildings on the landscape should be minimised by grouping them together where practicable.
(xii) The scale and form of buildings or structures, including colour and materials, should be such that they complement the natural landscape and are not readily discernible from land outside the Okura Policy Area.
(xiii) The landscape values in the Okura Policy Area should not be adversely affected or diminished by the location, scale or form of buildings or structures when viewed from any public road or other public place, including reserves and the sea.
