Masterton, Carterton and South Wairarapa District Councils notified their decision on the Proposed Wairarapa Combined District Plan on 8 October 2025.
The period for making appeals on the decisions commenced from the Proposed District Plan Decisions Version notification date (8 October 2025) and closed on 21 November 2025. During this time, anyone who made a submission or further submission on the Proposed District Plan had an opportunity to lodge an appeal with the Environment Court in respect of provisions to which their submission related.
Following the close of the appeal period, there is a 15 working day period within which other parties can join appeal proceedings. This period closes on 15 December. Following that the Councils will work to resolve the appeals.
