You will usually have to pay development contributions for residential developments such as new houses and apartments, non-residential developments, subdivisions, and for some changes of land use.
We’ll work out the exact amount you need to pay when we assess your development for its building consent, resource consent or service connection.
The fees are calculated based on the number of household equivalent units (HEU) created by the development and the type and location of your development.

You can ask us to reconsider a development contribution assessment if you believe it was incorrect or based on incorrect information. You may also make a formal objection to an assessment or reconsideration of an assessment. Details of how to do this are in our Developments Contributions Policy above.
