Summary

The Hastings District Council notified Plan Change 43. Proposed Plan Change 43 seeks to rezone approximately 7150m2 of land from Plains Zone to General Residential (via a Deferred Residential Zoning) at the eastern end of Jellicoe Street and Jubilee Street in Hastings.

The proposed rezoned area would extend to the edge of the Proposed Hastings Northern Arterial Route “NAR” which is being notified concurrently with this proposed Plan Change.

Plan Change 43 proposes changes to the planning maps and rules of the Hastings District Plan as follows:

• Amend planning maps 18a and 56a of the Hastings District Plan, so that the land immediately adjacent to the end of Jellicoe Street and Jubilee Street is rezoned from Plains Zone to General Residential Zone (via a Deferred Residential Zoning); and

• Insert a new provision under Rule 8.7.2.1 to state that the Deferred Residential Zoning immediately adjacent to the end of Jellicoe Street and Jubilee Street will cease to have effect when the noise fence associated with the Proposed Hastings Northern Arterial Route (NAR) is constructed.
