Description

This determination arises from the applicant's view that a code compliance certificate for a house and timber retaining wall had been issued incorrectly, despite the authority having received a producer statement (PS4) for the review of the construction of the retaining wall from the engineer, as the retaining wall had been built at a level higher than that detailed in the consent documents. The matters to be determined are therefore whether the timber retaining wall as constructed complies with Building Code Clause B1 Structure; and whether the code compliance certificate was correctly issued in accordance with section 94(1)(a), in that the completed work had been built in accordance the approved building consent.
