INTRODUCTION
1.1
My full name is Janine Elizabeth Sowerby. I hold the position of Senior
Policy Planner at the Christchurch City Council (Council). I have been
employed by the Council since September 1998 and in this position
since July 2000.
1.2
I hold a Bachelor of Regional Planning from Massey University. I have
previously worked as a planner and in planning management at the
Dunedin City and Taupo District Councils, from February 1997 to
September 1998 and from March 1989 to February 1997 respectively. I
have over 26 years' experience in planning, including Resource
Management Act (RMA)-related plan changes/variations and the
processing of resource consent applications for a wide range of
activities and Local Government Act (LGA)-related policy and master
plan development and implementation. I am a full member of the New
Zealand Planning Institute.
1.3
As part of my role at the Council, I have been asked to provide
evidence in relation to Proposal 2 Definitions. I have lead the
preparation of all three stages of Proposal 2 Definitions and the
definitions-related Section 13.17 of Proposal 13 Central City of the
proposed Replacement District Plan (pRDP). This has been limited to
tasks of more an administrative and logistical, rather than substantive,
nature. For example, developing the methodology for preparation of the
definition proposals; collating the proposed definitions; identifying
reliant and related definitions; maintaining an overview throughout the
process; facilitating final integration and reconciliation; attending
associated mediation; and assistance with the preparation of
Statements of Issues and evidence. The substance of definitions has
been considered and addressed by the relevant chapter leads who use
those definitions, as they have intimate knowledge of the application of
individual definitions in their context and the implications of
amendments to them.
1.4
I confirm that I have read the Code of Conduct for Expert Witnesses
contained in Part 7 of the Environment Court Practice Note 2014, and
that I agree to comply with it. I also confirm that I have considered all

the material facts that I am aware of that might alter or detract from the
opinions that I express, and that this evidence is within my area of
expertise, except where I state that I am relying on the evidence of
another person. The Council, as my employer, has agreed to me giving
expert evidence on its behalf in accordance with my duties under the
Code of Conduct.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
3.1
The purpose of the Definitions Proposal is to enable the pRDP to
achieve the sustainable management of natural and physical resources
within Christchurch District. In order to do so, definitions must be clear,
concise and easy to use. The main goal, therefore, at this point in the
pRDP process, has been to reduce duplication of and better integrate
definitions across the three stages of the Definitions Proposal, and
between it and the Central City Proposal, in favour of a single definition
for each term that is acceptable for application to all of the provisions in
which it is relied on.
3.2
To that end, submissions with respect to individual definitions have
been addressed by the chapter leads as relevant, at which point the
reconciliation of definitions with multiple versions was also addressed.
Definitions-related submissions of a general nature are addressed in
this evidence, along with the issues identified in the associated
Statement of Issues, out of scope submissions, outstanding and other
matters to which the Panel should have regard.
3.3
The reliant definitions have not been updated in the Revised Proposal
attached to this evidence as their identification within the Definitions
Proposal, and the identification and naming of definitions as
appropriate in their context throughout the substantive proposals,
cannot be done accurately until the Panel's decision on all definitions is
known.

4.
BACKGROUND
4.1
I rely on Mr Thomson's explanation of the purpose of, and methodology
used to develop, the Definitions Proposal presented at the Stage 1
Definitions Proposal hearing, including the application of higher order
documents.4 Of particular significance to the Definitions Proposal is
Clause (i) of the SOE, which requires that the pRDP uses clear,
concise language and is easy to use.
4.2
The pRDP (and therefore Definitions Proposal) has been notified over
three stages. This staged development has necessitated amendments
to some of the Stage 1 definitions in the subsequent stages, resulting
in multiple definitions for the same term within the Definitions Proposal
and in the Central City definitions (section 13.17). The reasons for
amendments or exceptions to, and therefore re-notification of Stage 1
definitions can be summarised as:
(a)
to recognise their expanded application beyond just Stage 1
topics and zones and to define words/phrases in conjunction
with the Stage 2 or 3 topics and zones, rather than being left
with some inadequate or unworkable definitions. In some
cases, a definition required in Stage 1 was more
appropriately defined in conjunction with a Stage 2 or 3
chapter. For example, while Indigenous vegetation is used in
the Stage 1 Subdivision, Development and Earthworks
Proposal and therefore had to be notified in Stage 1, the
term was most appropriately defined in conjunction with the
Natural and Cultural Heritage Proposal notified in Stage 3,
hence the deferral of its consideration to Stage 3;
(b)
to better align/integrate Stage 1 definitions with new Stage 2
or 3 definitions. For example, a consequential amendment
was required to Stage 1's Transport system as result of the
introduction of Stage 2's Transport infrastructure;
(c)
to reflect amendments to external legislation or other
regulatory documents that definitions within the pRDP rely
on. For example, the LGA-sourced definition of Community
4
Statement of Evidence of Ivan Thomson on behalf of Christchurch City Council, 9 June 2015, paragraphs
7.1 to 7.7.
7
3723 CCC - Sowerby
Page 9 of 270
infrastructure notified in Stage 1 required amendment via
Stage 2 as the result of the LGA 2002 Amendment Act
2014; and
(d)
duplication of definitions also occurred due to the Central
City Proposal originally being developed as a self-contained
chapter, the majority of its definitions (Section 13.17) being
repetitions of Stage 1, 2 or 3 definitions.
4.3
Central City-related duplication has largely been dealt with through the
Central City Hearing, where section/chapter leads identified which
Central City-related definitions could be replaced by or merged into
pre-existing equivalents in the Definitions Proposal. Some duplication
has also been addressed in other Stage 2/3 hearings, for example for
Natural and Cultural Heritage. The remaining duplication is being dealt
with in this hearing.
4.4
The following table records the source and number of definitions as
notified in the pRDP. As recorded below, some of the definitions have
come directly from the LURP and CCRP and are required to be
included in the pRDP.

Some of the newly proposed definitions in the pRDP reflect drivers
(such as earthquake recovery-related provisions or the need for some
new or similar, but location-specific, definitions to reflect local
circumstances) that have the potential to increase the number of
definitions from that in the City and District Plans. The pRDP as notified
included 538 definitions (after taking account of duplication), which has
been reduced to approximately 480 definitions as per the attached
Revised Proposal.

5.
OUTCOMES OF MEDIATION
5.1
I attended the formal definitions-specific mediation held on 15 February
2016. The mediation provided opportunities to discuss both general
administrative and logistical matters (such as the reconciliation of
definitions with multiple versions) and individual definitions. A
mediation report was filed on 19 February 2016. The specific outcomes
of mediation, particularly the agreed amendments, have subsequently
been documented in the evidence of the other Council witnesses and
the Revised Proposal dated 24 February 2016.
6.
ISSUE 1: HOW SHOULD EACH OF THE "REMAINING DEFINITIONS" BE
TREATED?
6.1
In the Stage 1 Definitions hearing 'remaining definitions' were notified
definitions on which submissions may or may not have been made,
that were yet to be considered by the Panel at the time of the hearing
(i.e. had not been addressed at earlier hearings). The Council then
responded to any outstanding submission points (through evidence
and the Accept/Reject table). Through this exercise the Council also
identified definitions that were no longer required as they were not, or
were no longer used in the Stage 1 proposals.
6.2
Any deferred Stage 1 submission points have now been addressed in
Council's evidence for this hearing, recorded in the Accept/Reject table
at Appendix 4 and in the Revised Proposal in Appendix 2
accordingly. Council witnesses have also indicated in their evidence
definitions that they consider are no longer used in the pRDP based on
the Council's latest position and any relevant decisions released by the
Panel (i.e. confirmed definitions subsequently rendered redundant).
6.3
After all Stage 2 and 3 decisions are released the Council will be in a
position to advise the Panel of all redundant definitions in Chapter 2
(Stages 2 and 3). In my opinion, that list cannot be finalised at this
point in time because:
9
3723 CCC - Sowerby
Page 11 of 270
(a)
The Council's position on the Stage 2 and 3 Definitions
Proposal may evolve during the process of this hearing in
response to submitters' evidence;
(b)
At the time of writing evidence, the hearings for General
Rules and Procedures, Natural Hazards and Coastal
Environment have either just commenced, or are yet to
commence and the Council's position may evolve through
concessions or evidence presented at the hearing; and
(c)
The Panel's decision on each of those Stage 2 and 3
Proposals may differ from the Council's final position, in
which case the list could be somewhat inaccurate. In other
words, a term could be identified as redundant but then
need to be re-instated, or a term could be identified as
necessary but after the release of the Panel's decision no
longer be required for use in the substantive chapters, or no
longer be listed as a definition based on the Stage 2 and 3
Definitions decision.
6.4
Given this, the Council's evidence identifies those terms that are highly
likely to be 'redundant'. This is generally where the term was highly
specific to the parent chapter material (i.e. cemetery-related or utilitiesrelated). In some cases (in particular for the Specific Purpose
(Cemetery) Zone) it is considered further deletions of definitions can be
made and reliance on the 'every day meaning' of the words is
appropriate.
7.
ISSUE 2: ARE THERE ANY DEFINITIONS RECOMMENDED FOR
DELETION IN STAGE 1 RELIED ON BY STAGE 2 AND 3 CHAPTERS AND
THEREFORE
SHOULD
NOT
BE
DELETED
OR
WILL
REQUIRE
REINSTATEMENT?
7.1
The development of the pRDP (more specifically the Definitions
Proposal) in three stages has created various integration-related
issues, one being definitions recommended for deletion in Stage 1
which are relied on by Stage 2 and 3 chapters as notified. Appendix 1
lists the definitions recommended for deletion in Stage 1 and records
that through the course of the Stage 2 and 3 hearings (including this
hearing) none of those definitions are sought to be relied upon. In
10
3723 CCC - Sowerby
Page 12 of 270
summary, this is no longer an issue as the result of these definitions no
longer being required in any of the stages.
8.
ISSUE 3: HOW SHOULD THE DEFINITIONS NOTIFIED IN SECTION 13.17
OF THE CENTRAL CITY CHAPTER BE RECONCILED INTO THE
DEFINITIONS CHAPTER?
8.1
The Central City Proposal was initially developed as an entirely selfcontained chapter, Section 13.17 of which contains the 301 definitions
used therein. In response to the Ministers' comments5 and submissions
(including from the Council and the Crown6) on the Stage 3 proposals,
the Council integrated the stand-alone Central City Proposal into the
relevant "parent chapters". Integration of the Central City definitions
has been achieved to the extent possible through the Central City
Hearing (as documented in the Definitions Revised Proposal for the
Central City, dated 16 December 2015). That integration has been
carried over into the Revised Proposal at Appendix 2 of this evidence.
I note for completeness that Central City definitions relating to Natural
and Cultural Heritage, Open Space, Natural Hazards, and General
Rules and Procedures have been addressed in those individual
hearings or in this Definitions Hearing.
8.2
How each of the notified individual Central City definitions were
integrated has depended on their individual circumstances, i.e. their
respective sources (duplicate Stage 1, 2 or 3 definitions as notified;
new Central City-specific definitions; existing but split, Central Cityspecific definitions7; existing but tweaked, Central City-specific
definitions; or the result of a Panel decision) and whether subject to
submissions.
8.3
Depending on their respective sources and individual circumstances:
(a)
Some definitions have been easy to integrate, e.g. the new
Central City-specific definitions (none of which were
submitted on), existing but split, Central City-specific

11
3723 CCC - Sowerby
Page 13 of 270
definitions (without submissions) and those the result of a
Panel decision.
(b)
Integration of some definitions have been less straight
forward, e.g. the duplicates of Stage 1 definitions as notified
particularly needed to be reviewed by the relevant chapter
leads to ensure that the Council's final position on the
definition in the Stage 1 hearing would still be appropriate to
apply to the Central City provisions (and therefore whether
the Stage 1 version could 'subsume' the Central City
version). If the Stage 1 version could not be relied upon, the
relevant Council witnesses needed to propose either a
further amendment that both retains the intention of the
Stage 1 amendment but renders it applicable to the Central
City provisions as well or keep a completely Central Cityspecific definition.
(c)
Some definitions (a minority) have been harder to integrate,
e.g. those with multiple versions and submissions spanning
Stages 1, 2 and/or 3, such as Earthworks, Community
facility, Hospital, Indigenous vegetation, Recreation activity
and Utility.
8.4
In order to discuss definitions that fall into category (c) in particular,
Council staff met in early February 2016 to review and reconcile the
multiple versions of each definition. Those changes have been further
discussed amongst the relevant chapter leads, and evidence has been
provided where necessary. The chapter leads have reviewed the latest
Revised Proposal attached to my evidence, which indicates the
recommended version of definitions subject to multiple versions.
9.
ISSUE 4: HOW SHOULD DEFINITIONS OF TERMS USED ACROSS
MULTIPLE CHAPTERS (AND MULTIPLE STAGES) BE RECONCILED?
9.1
Following on from the issue above, reconciliation of multiple versions is
also a matter to be dealt with within the Definitions Proposal itself (i.e.
where multiple versions of the definitions exist across the stages, even
once the Central City definitions have been integrated).
12
3723 CCC - Sowerby
Page 14 of 270
9.2
As noted in paragraph 8.4 above, the relevant chapter leads have
liaised to reconcile all such definitions, the aim being a single, mutually
acceptable version of each definition for application plan-wide, where
possible. The process was essentially as follows:
(a)
the starting point was the Council's final position on the
Stage 1 version of the definition, which is the preferred
version where possible when reconciling multiple versions;
(b)
in some cases, the Stage 2 or 3 version is recommended
because the definition addresses additional matters that
were not necessarily apparent when the definition was
drafted in Stage 1. The Council then had two options:
(i)
incorporate the Stage 2/3 elements into the Stage
1 version in such a way as to provide for a single
definition without compromising its meaning with
respect to the Stage 1 chapters or disadvantaging
Stage 1 submitters (i.e. by drafting in a zonespecific exemption); or
(ii)
where reconciliation into the Stage 1 version has
not been possible due to the differences between
the versions, in very limited situations the Council
has recommended the most appropriate version of
the definition (being the Stage 2 or 3 definition),
noting where there are scope and fairness matters
to be addressed in legal submissions.
9.3
Based on the latest Revised Proposal, I consider that the majority of
the reconciliation and integration has been able to be carried out within
the scope of the Council's submission points #3723.873 and #3723.873
and the Crown's submission points #2387.11, #3721.39 and #3721.40
seeking reduced duplication. The integration also, in my view, satisfies
Clause (i) of the SOE by being easy to use (i.e. by not having multiple
versions of definitions).
9.4
Scope matters have been identified (in terms of (b)(ii) above) in some
instances, as per other evidence of Council's witnesses for this
hearing. This has occurred where the Council originally supported
inclusion of the Stage 1 definition at the close of the Stage 1 Definitions
13
3723 CCC - Sowerby
Page 15 of 270
hearing, but now seeks that definition be deleted in favour of a Stage 2
or 3 version.
9.5
In respect of the Meadowlands Exemplar Development, the need to
make and release decisions on Stage 1 definitions for priority
decisions, and to ensure the Stage 1 provisions are workable, has also
resulted in the provision of similar but slightly differently named
definitions within the Definitions Proposal. As the majority of the subject
definitions (those ending in '(MED)') are exactly the same as the
notified version applicable elsewhere in Christchurch District, the
Council and Crown has previously recommended that all but two of
them be deleted.8
9.6
A number of Council witnesses have addressed duplication of
definitions in their evidence, and have suggested means to reduce that
duplication. In addition to that I confirm that the following definitions
can be merged so that only one definition remains (given that the
versions are identical). The relevant changes have been made to the
Revised Proposal at Appendix 2:
(a)
Approved building (the Stage 1 final version and Stage 2
notified version are identical);
(b)
Community infrastructure (the Stage 1 final version and
Stage 2 notified version are identical).
(c)
Entertainment activity (the Stage 1 final version and Stage 2
notified version are identical).
(d)
Recreation activity (the Stage 1 final version and Stage 2
notified version were identical. The Stage 2 version has
been amended, therefore I consider the Stage 1 version can
be subsumed by Stage 2);
(e)
Relocation of a building (the Stage 1 final version and Stage
2 notified version are identical).

ISSUE 5: SHOULD EMBEDDED DEFINITIONS CONTAINED WITHIN
CHAPTERS BE RELOCATED TO THE DEFINITIONS CHAPTER?
10.1
As required by Clause (i) of the SOE, it was the Council's intention that
all defined word/phrases be located in the Definitions Proposal for
transparency and ease of use, with their application restricted as
relevant, if necessary. However, some of the notified proposals
inadvertently contained definitions embedded in the rules (refer
Appendix 3). The Council's recommendation on these definitions is
recorded in other evidence, as also summarised in Appendix 3.
10.2
It is noted that the following decisions of the Panel include definitions
embedded within the provisions:
(a)
Decision 6 includes embedded definitions of Building
consent platform, Liquefaction and Non-habitable buildings
with respect to Rules 5.3.2.3, 5.4 and 5.5.1.3h respectively;
and
(b)
Decision 10 includes an embedded definition of Site with
respect to Rules 14.11.4 and 14.12.3.
10.3
The Council's position remains that definitions should be located in the
Definitions Proposal in all instances, and the Revised Proposal reflects
this. I acknowledge that the Council is not in a position to amend the
above decisions, but I understand that the Panel can make this change
if it is one that is of minor effect.
11.
ISSUE 6: HAVE ALL DEFINED TERMS BEEN IDENTIFIED WHERE
APPROPRIATE IN THE PROPOSALS?
11.1
At the Stage 1 Definitions Hearing it was the Council's position that
where a defined term was to be used this was shown by underlining
that term in the provision (and, in the context of the e-Plan, by being
hyperlinked), hence the Council's submission #3732.7 in support of
this.
11.2
Whether or not a particular term is identified as a defined term by being
underlined (and in the ePlan also hyperlinked) will also depend on the

Panel's decision on the Stage 1 Definitions Proposal. I understand that
the Stage 1 Definitions decision will determine whether and to what
extent terms shall be underlined (i.e. identified as a defined term). I'm
also conscious that the decisions that have been released to date do
not include underlining of any definitions (although the majority of
decisions released also specify that definitions are not dealt with in the
respective decision).
11.3
The Council is willing to assist the Panel in carrying out the exercise of
correctly identifying and naming the defined terms in each of the
decision versions of the substantive chapters, once the extent of the
Definitions Proposal is known.
12.
ISSUE 7: ARE ALL RELIANT DEFINITIONS CORRECT?
12.1
As explained in introductory note 3. to each stage of the Definitions
Proposal, the other definitions on which each defined word/phrase
relies (reliant definitions) are identified in the Definitions Proposal for
information purposes. Reliant definitions are those words/phrases
within a definition which are themselves defined, thereby extending the
meaning, and assisting the interpretation, of the core definition.
12.2
The reliant definitions identified in Stages 1, 2 and 3 were only sourced
from the core definitions within their own stage due to the absence of
definitions from subsequent stage/s and because the definitions from
the preceding stage/s which are/could be reliant definitions have been
subject to change through the hearing of submissions. In my view, the
reliant definitions for all stages will not be able to be correctly identified
until all decisions have been made on all definition-related submissions
in all three stages.
12.3
In my view, the most straightforward way to identify the reliant
definitions is to:
(a)
await the Panel's decisions on definitions for all stages; and
16
(b)
within the decision versions of the Definitions Proposal carry
out an electronic word search of each of the core definitions9
for each of the other core/potential reliant definitions; then
(c)
where a potential reliant definition is identified within a core
definition, a judgement call is made as to whether it is
appropriate to identify as a reliant definition in the context of
the core definition (i.e. in the context, in some situations the
plain and ordinary meaning of the term may be appropriate
or the potential reliant definition may expand the core
definition beyond that anticipated in the provision within
which it's used).
12.4
Despite the fact that all reliant definitions cannot be identified until all
core definitions are decided upon by the Panel, in my view the Council
can helpfully identify the reliant definitions for the Stage 2 and 3
Hearing10. But, given the various changes that may occur as a result of
submitter evidence, I consider this is more appropriate to do at rebuttal
evidence stage. Therefore reliant definitions have not been updated in
Appendix 2.
12.5
Currently, reliant definitions are listed to the right of the definition. In my
view, reliant definitions should be identified in the same manner as
definitions identified elsewhere in the pRDP – i.e. via underlining (and,
in due course, hyperlinking in the ePlan within the core definitions
themselves). I consider this is appropriate because:
(a)
it will treat the identification of definitions used substantively
within the chapter in the same way as definitions used
throughout
the
pRDP,
thereby
satisfying
general
submissions from the Crown seeking the clear and
consistent use of definitions throughout the pRDP;
(b)
the lists of reliant definitions, which result in a visually 'busy'
page, can be deleted; and
(c)
it will not change the substance of the core definition, but it
will improve the formatting and length of the Definitions
Chapter;
9
10
This word search needs to take into account the various ways in which defined words/phrases are
expressed, e.g. search both 'activity' and 'activities' to find instances of Commercial activities.
Subject to the content of the Stage 1 Definitions decision, the Revised Proposal attached to rebuttal will
also identify Stage 1-related reliant definitions.
17
12.6
This change should be made in conjunction with the following
explanatory amendment to introductory note 3. to the Definitions
Proposal:
3. Other definitions on which each definition relies (Rreliant
definitions) or is related to (Related definitions) are
identified via underlining/hyperlinking for information
purposes, to assist their interpretation of the primary
definition and to illustrate the interrelationship between
some definitions.
12.7
I reiterate the Council's recommendation in Stage 1 that all related
definitions be deleted11.
13.
OUTSTANDING MATTERS
Similar definitions
13.1
When reconciling (thus far surviving12) definitions, in addition to
reviewing those with multiple versions within the Definitions Proposal or
between the Definitions and Central City Proposals as noted in section
9 above, definitions were compared for similarity. In some situations,
similar definitions could potentially be combined resulting in a reduction
in the total number of definitions. During this process, the Council
considered similarities between definitions in Stage 1 and Stages 2 and
3. I understand that there is limited scope to delete Stage 1 definitions,
however for completeness I have included them in my recommendation
on the definitions that could be deleted given that at the time of the
Stage 1 hearing not all definitions were before the Panel (for example
Stage 3 was not yet notified). Where changes are recommended
below, the relevant substantive chapters that use the terms would need
to be updated.
13.2
As a result, and having discussed with relevant chapters leads, I
recommend that, with respect to:
11
12
Statement of Evidence of Ivan Thomson on behalf of Christchurch City Council, 9 June 2015, paragraphs
8.2 - 8.3.
Those not already recommended for deletion in the revised version.
18
(a)
Access, Access way, Pedestrian access way, Right-of-way
and Vehicle access:
(i)
Pedestrian access way (Stage 1 and Stage 3
Central City) be deleted in favour of continued use
of the phrase, but only the 'access way' part of it be
identified
as
defined
via
underlining
and
hyperlinking to Access way. The definition of
Pedestrian access way simply refers to Access
way (while the same situation applies to Vehicle
access, it is noted that this definition is used in
Decision 10).
(b)
Ancillary13,
Ancillary
aggregates-processing
activity,
Ancillary equipment, Ancillary food and beverage, and
Ancillary sports and fitness health care services:
(i)
Ancillary food and beverage (Stage 3) be deleted,
given the presence of Ancillary and Food and
beverage outlet and because it is not used in the
Central City Proposal for which it was sought.
(c)
Boundary, Frontage, Road boundary and Site boundary:
(i)
Site boundary (Stage 1 and Stage 3 Central City)
be deleted in favour of continued use of the phrase,
but only the 'boundary' part of it be identified as
defined
via
underlining
and
hyperlinking
to
Boundary. The definition of Site boundary simply
refers to Boundary (while the same situation
applies to Road boundary, it is noted that this
definition is used in Decision 10).
(d)
Concept plan, Development plan, Neighbourhood plan and
Outline development plan:
(i)
Concept plan (Stage 2) and Neighbourhood plan
(Stage 1) be deleted in favour of amendments to
Development plan and Outline development plan,
whereby the latter relates only to Greenfield Priority
Areas and the former covers everything else14.
13.3

19
13.4
In the context of trying to minimise the number of definitions insofar as
possible, it is drawn to the Panel's attention that:
(a)
Of the site-specific definitions Addiction services, Family
store and Supportive housing, Family store is effectively
covered by Retail activity and Supportive housing is very
similar to Sheltered housing;
(b)
While Vehicle trip could be deleted in favour of Vehicle
movement, which is what the Vehicle trip definition refers to
anyway, it's noted that both definitions are used in Decision
7); and
(c)
Rural selling place is very similar to, and would be preferably
replaced by, Rural produce retail, but is used in Decision 7.
13.5
The following groups of (thus far surviving) similar definitions were
found to be sometimes subtly but sufficiently different that they are all
still required:
(a)
Accessibility and Accessible;
(b)
Access lot and Access strip;
(c)
Amenity tree planting and Landscaping;
(d)
Automotive and/or marine supplier, Building supplier, Trade
supplier and Yard-based supplier;
(e)
Burial and Interment;
(f)
Care facilities and Care home within a retirement village;
(g)
Core public transport route and EDM core public transport
route;
(h)

and Transport infrastructure;
(i)

(j)

space, Gross leasable floor area (GLFA), Ground floor area,
Net floor area, Public floor area (PFA) and Public area;
(l)

SEEKING RELIEF OF A GENERAL NATURE
14.1
The relief of a general nature sought by submitters and further
submitters falls into the following three categories:
(a)
Ensuring clear, usable and (despite its staged development)
consistency of definitions across the pRDP;
(b)
Integration of the definitions in Section 13.17 of the Central
City Proposal into the Definitions Proposal; and
(c)
14.2
Ensuring the identification, via hyperlinking, of definitions.
I have assessed the relief sought, insofar as it relates to my area of
expertise, below and have come to a conclusion as to whether I
consider it appropriate for it to either be accepted or rejected.

Ensuring the hyperlinking of definitions
Submitter
Council (#3723.7)
14.7
While it was the Council's aim when preparing the pRDP in ePlan that
all words/phrases intended to be defined would be identified via
underlining (and electronically hyperlinked to the definition's wording in
the Definitions Proposal in the ePlan) for ease of use, as required by
clauses (i) and (c) of the SOE and Objective 3.3.2 respectively, the
Council's submission acknowledges that it was not possible to do so
accurately within the timeframe. For example, in the context:
(a)
The
following
should
have
been
underlined
(and
hyperlinked): 'disturbance of soil' on page 167 of Chapter
13, 'off-site sign' on page 271 of Chapter 13 and the defined
words/phrases in the Specific Purpose (Defence Wigram)
and (Styx Mill Road Transfer Station) Zones;
(b)
The following should have been correctly underlined (and
hyperlinked): 'road boundary' on page 30 of Chapter 13
(rather than to Road and Boundary), 'site boundary' on page
30 of Chapter 13 (rather than to Site and Boundary) and 'offsite sign' on page 130 of Chapter 6; and
(c)
The following should not have been underlined (and
hyperlinked): 'event' to Temporary activities on page 72 of
Chapter 13, 'maintenance' (in the context of utility
maintenance) to Maintenance (which is specific to heritage
items or settings) on page 174 of Chapter 13 and 'garaging'
to Garage on page 52 of Chapter 13.
14.8
Although the underlining (and hyperlinking) itself cannot be completed
until all defined words/phrases are confirmed through release of the
Panel's decisions, each chapter leader has respectively endeavoured
to correctly identify the defined word/phrases to be hyperlinked in due
course through their Stage 2 and 3 revised proposals. This submission
can therefore be accepted.

15.
OTHER MATTERS TO WHICH THE PANEL SHOULD HAVE REGARD
Abbreviations
15.1
In his evidence for the Stage 1 Definitions Chapter hearing, Mr
Thomson
recommended
separating
out
what
are
effectively
abbreviations from the list of definitions and relocating them into a
separate component of a renamed Abbreviations and Definitions
Chapter. He identified the definitions for inclusion in the abbreviations
list. However, there may be other abbreviations used throughout the
pRDP which the Panel may also consider appropriate to include in this
list of abbreviations before releasing its decision (for example, LURP
and CRPS).
Appendix 2.1
15.2
An error has been identified in the key to Appendix 2.1 Area-related
definitions of the Definitions Proposal, which results in a conflict with
Appendix 2.2 Area of Christchurch City. The key to the former shows
the area of Christchurch District coloured purple as 'Christchurch City
excluding Banks Peninsula Ward' when it should be 'Christchurch
District excluding Banks Peninsula Ward'. The appendix has been
corrected in the Revised Proposal attached to this evidence.

Appendix 2
Definitions Revised Proposal – dated 24 February 2016
Key:
This is the amended position of the Council with respect to Stage 2 and 3 definitions as at 24 February
2016. Given that there were multiple versions of some terms within the Definitions Proposal and between
the Definitions and Central City Proposals, similar to the revised proposal dated 9 February 2016, this
revised proposal has reduced duplication. For example, where a Stage 2 definition is identical to the
Council's final position in Stage 1, the Stage 2 version is shown as deleted (i.e. struck through) and the
Stage 1 version remains to be relied on. However, where there are marked differences and the Stage 1
version cannot be relied on at this time, both versions remain in this proposal for the time being.
The following definitions are from the notified version of the proposed Christchurch City Council
Replacement District Plan. They have been amended to date as follows:
1) Stage 1 definitions are in 'clean' grey text (i.e. with the underlining of additions and strike through of
deletions, as per the Council's position at the end of the Stage 1 hearing, removed, except that
definitions recommended to be deleted in whole remain struck through for information purposes).
Stage 1 definitions are NOT open for consideration, except to the extent that there have been
additions to them as a result of integrating the Central City definitions. Definitions in grey are
provided in this revised proposal for information/context purposes only. Where a Stage 2 or 3
duplicate version has been deleted in favour of relying on the Stage 1 version, the existing text of
that Stage 1 version should not be amended and, if through the course of this hearing. amendments
are made which require the Stage 2 version to be reinstated for changes to be made, that will occur.
2) Decisions (i.e. amendments confirmed) released by the Panel to date on the Definitions Proposal in
preceding hearings - additions are in 'clean' grey text, except that definitions deleted in whole
remain struck through for information purposes. The relevant decision number is shown in square
brackets.
3) Stage 2 definitions are in black text.
4) Stage 3 definitions are in shaded text, except as advised below with respect to Central City-related
definitions.
5) the Council's consideration of submissions and amendments proposed in both preceding Stage 2
and 3 hearings and for the Stage 2/3 Definitions Proposal hearing - additions are underlined in red
text and deletions are struck through in red text; and
6) the merging of definitions notified in Section 13.17 of the initially self-contained Central City
Proposal into the Definitions Proposal equivalent, through rolling the former into/ reliance on, the
latter - additions are underlined in blue text and deletions are struck through in blue text.
The source giving scope for change is identified in square brackets after the relevant amendment, e.g.
[#310 Council]. For all integration and reduction of duplication (including in relation to Central City
definitions), the submission points particularly relied upon are #2387.11 Crown, #3721.39 Crown and

Decision & Reason
A
Oppose
The Diocese opposes a number of
definitions in the PRCDP which are
ambiguous and overly complex. A number
of definitions overlap significantly which will
create confusion when they are applied.
For this reason, the definition of alteration
of heritage item needs to exclude activities
which are otherwise permitted under Rule
P7
The Submitters consider that the ICOMOS
definitions are more pragmatic, compared
with the notified proposal and seek
amendment of all definition to ensure great
consistency with the ICOMOS.
The alteration of a heritage item requires
resource consent under 9.3.3.2.3 as a
Restricted Discretionary Activity. Under this
definition, the addition of gardening or
landscaping to an open space heritage
item requires resource consent.
The Submitters also note that the removal
of mature trees in an open heritage item
space is considered an alteration and thus
would require consent under 9.3.3.2.3. The
provisions as they relate to heritage
settings and open space settings are
confusing particularly in terms of the
application of Rule P7.

That the Building definition is modified to be consistent with the building code.

I oppose the proposed changes around: reduction from 10m2 to 6m2 not requiring building
consent and the inclusion of the following as 'buildings as context requires' any vehicle, trailer,
tent, marquee, shipping container, caravan or boat, whether fixed or moveable, used on site as a
residential unit or place of business or storage.
√
Amend or remove building definition part C to allow for a broader range of activity.
√
I oppose making consents necessary for structures under 10m2, or moveable structures e.g.
those on wheels
√
I request that a 10 square metre building without needing consent in Christchurch is maintained
without change.

We wish to speak to the new definition of building as proposed in the new District Plan.
Decision Sought:
√
That the changes proposed around the definition of a Building be dropped, in particular the
Reduction from 10m2 to 6m2 not requiring building consent and the inclusion of the following as
'buildings as context requires'; any vehicle, trailer, tent, marquee, shipping container, caravan or
boat, whether fixed or moveable, used on-site as a residential unit or place of business or storage.
Decision Sought:
√
Amend the definition of building and temporary building to maintain alignment with the Building
Act 2004.
Later submission made: This submission replaces the submission made earlier on the 4/9/15,
please disregard previous submission that requested amending to redefine to continue to align
with the Building Act 2004. Please do not redefine a building as proposed in this district plan. I
wish to speak to the new definition of building as proposed in the new district plan.
Decision Sought:
I seek to have the definition of 'building' be amended. I wish to speak to the new definition of
'building' as proposed in the new District Plan, in relation to tiny houses and alternative living
structures.

Reduction from 10m2 to 6m2 not requiring building consent and the inclusion of the following as
'buildings as context requires': any vehicle, trailer, tent, marquee, shipping container, caravan or
boat, whether fixed or moveable, used on-site as a residential unit or place of business or storage.
Following the earthquakes sub-consent structures have played a critical role in bringing
Christchurch back to life. They have been central to the work of organisations like Gapfiller and
FESTA, and core to projects that have provided much needed community activity and the
international acclaim that has brought many tourists back to the city. The role low cost, lightweight,
dynamic urban interventions can play in stimulating the urban environment is the critical
innovation and spatial lesson of the last five years, and to consider it limited to a temporary
rebuilding phase would be a great mistake. We need to make sure the proposed changes to the
Resource consent process do not inhibit these new practices.

Decision Sought: Building
√
I believe that reducing the minimum size for which a building consent is required from 10m2 to 6m2
and classifying movable structures or those on trailers as building is not only a flagrant
contradiction of the Building Act 2004, but more importantly is contrary to the objectives of
sustainable development.

Transport > 7.3Matters of

Decision Sought: (With respect to) Various reliant and related definitions pertaining to
community based facilities and activities, including but not limited to: Education facility
Review and amend the definitions relating to community based facilities and activities to reduce
duplication and provide greater clarity, including consequential amendments to related provisions.
The review and amendment should retain the intent of the provision to provide for community
facilities and activities but also include consideration of the following matters:
- The breadth of community facilities and activities provided by central and local government,
NGOs and community based groups, including central government service facilities;
- That a community facility is not just used principally by members of the community, but in the
case of the NZFS and Department of Corrections facilities for example, can be for the benefit
or service of the community;
- That the community facility may or may not be in public ownership;
- The need to recognise collaborative or mixed use facilities to address shared client-centric
delivery modes;
- Consideration of the effects of differing community facilities;
- The possible confusion between the Replacement Plan definition/s and the use of the term
“community facilities” in s197 of the LGA;
- The change in definition of Community Infrastructure in s197 of the LGA.
Important Note: This definition has a significant impact on related submission points throughout
the plan proposals.
Decision Reason:
Support the recognition of and provision for community facilities and activities in the proposals;
however there are concerns with the definitions in the proposal for community based facilities and
activities given the significant overlaps between the various definitions and the lack of clarity and
consistency this creates when trying to apply the provisions.
There is a significant opportunity to streamline these definitions to reduce overlap and simplify the
provisions, and to allow correct interpretation of the policy framework and the applicability of rules.
Examples include:
- Places of assembly is considered an unusual term for community halls and libraries, and halls
and libraries are also included in the Community facility definition.
- It is not apparent why the definition for Community Facility differentiates between publicly and
privately owned facilities where their effects are comparable. For example, the rules provide
for both “community facilities” and “gymnasiums” (i.e. a private or public recreation facility) as
permitted activities subject to identical or similar criteria (e.g. Rules 15.2.2.1, 15.3.2.1,
15.4.2.1, 15.5.2.1), which supports the assumption of such activities having similar effects.
- Community facility refers to “used principally by members of the community”. This does not
clearly provide for services that are for the benefit of or service of the community such as the
fire service facilities or non-custodial corrections facilities for example.
There is significant work being undertaken by central and local government, NGO’s and
community based groups to address shared client-centric delivery models based in the

with increasing pressures for efficiencies around community investments. Expanding the definition

Decision Sought:
The Diocese supports in part this definition
and considers the identification of historical
setting consistent with best practice.
However, the definition needs to provide
more focus in determining how a heritage
setting is defined, and clarity on how it has
been determined. Of particular concern is
the potentially wide ambit of what is
considered heritage setting, and there is a
need to ensure that it is confined to
elements of historic significance and/or
close association with the site or the
heritage item

Henderson Basin Area and Cashmere Floodplain.
√
Include a definition of historic heritage.
√
We support the definitions relating to historic heritage.
Terminology seems awkward: it implies that natural heritage (trees, landscapes) have no historic
associations, values; and it is anomalous in conjunction with, e.g. the Christchurch Town Hall.

Clarify the definition of "improved pasture". Consider the definition in the Ashburton District Plan.
Decision Sought: Add the following definition:
√
Improved pasture
means an area of pasture where:
•
exotic pasture grass and herb species are visually the predominant vegetation cover
(except where the definition of indigenous vegetation is met); and
•
the area has been modified or enhanced by being subjected to either cultivation, irrigation,
over-sowing, top-dressing, or direct drilling; and
•
the area has been subjected to routine pasture maintenance or improvement since 1 June
2000.

Decision & Reason
A
A(P)
The breadth of community facilities and activities provided by central and local government,
NGOs and community based groups, including central government service facilities;
- That a community facility is not just used principally by members of the community, but in the
case of the NZFS and Department of Corrections facilities for example, can be for the benefit
or service of the community;
- That the community facility may or may not be in public ownership;
- The need to recognise collaborative or mixed use facilities to address shared client-centric
delivery modes;
- Consideration of the effects of differing community facilities;
- The possible confusion between the Replacement Plan definition/s and the use of the term
“community facilities” in s197 of the LGA;
- The change in definition of Community Infrastructure in s197 of the LGA.
Important Note: This definition has a significant impact on related submission points throughout
the plan proposals.
-
Decision Reason:
Support the recognition of and provision for community facilities and activities in the proposals;
however there are concerns with the definitions in the proposal for community based facilities and
activities given the significant overlaps between the various definitions and the lack of clarity and
consistency this creates when trying to apply the provisions.
There is a significant opportunity to streamline these definitions to reduce overlap and simplify the
provisions, and to allow correct interpretation of the policy framework and the applicability of rules.
Examples include:
- Places of assembly is considered an unusual term for community halls and libraries, and halls
and libraries are also included in the Community facility definition.
- It is not apparent why the definition for Community Facility differentiates between publicly and
privately owned facilities where their effects are comparable. For example, the rules provide
for both “community facilities” and “gymnasiums” (i.e. a private or public recreation facility) as
permitted activities subject to identical or similar criteria (e.g. Rules 15.2.2.1, 15.3.2.1,
15.4.2.1, 15.5.2.1), which supports the assumption of such activities having similar effects.
- Community facility refers to “used principally by members of the community”. This does not
clearly provide for services that are for the benefit of or service of the community such as the
fire service facilities or non-custodial corrections facilities for example.
There is significant work being undertaken by central and local government, NGO’s and
community based groups to address shared client-centric delivery models based in the
community. Mixed use facilities are likely to become more of a community demand into the future,
with increasing pressures for efficiencies around community investments. Expanding the definition
of Community facility to specifically make reference to collaborative or mixed use facilities would
support this work.

Decision Sought:
√
Define sustainable and add a timeframe for 'sustainable'. This is crucial as the sustainability of
activities is clearly linked to the timeline involved. We suggest sustainable over a timeframe of 50100 years would be suitable given current knowledge of climate change events, impacts and
