Status: Operative
The following proposed plan change was made Operative and has been incorporated into the Nelson Resource Management Plan (NRMP).
The purpose of this proposed plan change was to add twenty four additional trees to Appendix 2 - Heritage Trees of the Nelson Resource Management Plan. These trees were assessed by Council as justifying protection in the NRMP.
The NRMP has three categories of listed trees: Local, Landscape and Heritage. Heritage Trees receive the highest level of protection under the planning rules, with Local Trees being the least protected. Twelve of the current proposed trees have been assessed as meriting Heritage status, with ten in the Landscape category and two Local.
