Tauranga City Council has accepted a request for a change to the Operative Tauranga City Plan. Plan Change 39 (Upper Ohauiti) is a private plan change prepared by Landsdale Development Limited. This plan change proposes to create a new Medium Density Residential Zone and to reconfigure the existing Greenbelt Zone over the land located at 120 and 125 Upper Ohauiti Road. It includes the creation of new provisions within the City Plan using an Outline Development Plan to control the timing and layout of future development on the land and includes the medium density residential standards.
