Residential subdivision using an existing ROW.

[iNVEST0R]

Hey All.

I am looking at subdividing an existing lot which is serviced by a Private ROW.

Easement is for all services & vehicle.

Provided my development proposal is in accordance with Council's standards - Do you think I will need to get permission from other property owners when I submit an application for Resource Consent. Do you think it will be a legal requirement??

There are 16 residential lots (including a retirement village) currently using the lots and I want to add another 4 lots. You can image how painful this might be.

past experience & advice would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I think the answer would be yes - you need permission.
Currently I expect you have right of way for your existing lot - you will be subdividing so have additional lots.
I doubt they would have right of way as it stands now.
But I'm not a lawyer so may be completely wrong!
