Hi,
There is now a deposit of $2,500 for resource consent applications in Auckland (used to be $1,500 less than 2 months ago).
We're at the tail end of our subdivision process and I'd like to know *generally* how much council processing fees are for resource consent applications. We've used a credible consultancy to assist us, so I'm hopeful our application is complete and all required documents have been supplied.
I heard a number like $12 - $14K for council just to process a simple 2-lot residential subdivision. This is of course seperate to the $24K contribution fees, LINZ fees, certification etc. Yikes.
Going on the estimate above, at the rate of roughly $150 p/h, that would suggest roughly 80 - 90 hours... which seems like a long time just to review the application... given all the hard work has already been completed by certified professionals.

Can anyone provide any insight or ideally can speak from experience?
Cheers
