Planning
Babbage Planning delivers comprehensive, integrated solutions that optimise environmental, social, cultural, and economic outcomes. With a multi-disciplinary approach, we ensure balanced, effective strategies tailored to each client’s unique needs.
Our Planning Team integrates seamlessly with architecture, engineering, environment, and surveying, delivering holistic, one-stop-shop solutions. This approach accelerates the planning process, ensuring all necessary planning tests are met efficiently.
We provide full regional and district planning services across New Zealand, from early project assessments to Environment Court appeals for resource consent applications. Our expertise spans planning approvals for land developments, subdivisions, roads, wastewater, stormwater, and water transmission projects. We also assess environmental discharges, implement changes to local authority policies, and engage with stakeholders, including the public and mana whenua groups.
By engaging early in projects, we identify risks and opportunities, ensuring clear alignment on scope, budget, and timelines. Our commitment to responsible stewardship balances economic development with environmental performance across urban, recreational, and rural landscapes.
With almost 30 years of experience in planning applications for dairy factories and processing facilities, we bring deep industry knowledge to every project. Our expertise also extends to residential subdivisions, retail developments, and educational facilities, ensuring tailored solutions for diverse sectors.
