Description

This determination considers an authority's decision to refuse an application for a discretionary exemption from the requirement to obtain building consent, under clause 2 of Schedule 1 of the Building Act 2004.

The determination considers the authority’s reasons for refusal, and whether a discretionary exemption can be considered after the building work has been completed.

Decision:

In accordance with section 188 of the Building Act 2004, it was determined:

  1. The authority could not rely on the bridge being located on private landas a reason for refusing the application for a discretionary exemption.
  2. The authority could not exempt the building work to construct the bridge from the requirement for a building consent, under clause 2 of Schedule 1, because the building work has already been completed.
  3. Therefore, the authority's decision to refuse the application for a discretionary exemption (albeit for a different reason than that relied on by the authority at the time it refused the application) has been confirmed.
