Description
This determination is subject to appeal.
This determination considers an authority’s decision to issue a notice to fix. The determination considers whether the house has undergone a change of use, the remedies in the notice, and whether section 167 of the Building Act applies.
Decision:
In accordance with section 188 of the Building Act 2004, it was determined that there were grounds to issue the notice to fix, as a change of use occurred contrary to sections 114 and 115. However, the notice to fix is modified to remove the requirement to apply for a building consent.
