Land repair How we can help you You may have to make some repairs to your land and to help you with this process Environment Canterbury and your local council are working together to develop a streamlined resource consent process. If your land works require a resource consent - to comply with the rules in ECan’s regional plans and your council’s plans - you will need to contact your local council. What do I need to do? If you live in Christchurch, the first thing to do is to go to the land repair page on the Christchurch City Council’s website. In some cases, you will be allowed to undertake land repair work without a resource consent. Run through the frequently asked questions at www.ccc.govt.nz/landrepair to find out whether you can get the work underway yourself. We don’t want to hold you up. If you do need a resource consent then you will need to contact the Christchurch City Council. If you live in the Waimakariri District Council or Selwyn District Council areas then you will need to contact them directly for more information. Find contact details overleaf.
