A new 18-lot subdivision at Pisa Moorings has been approved by the Central Otago District Council hearings panel.
A. J. Devlin, C. M. Robinson and J. M. Robinson had applied to establish the 1.6ha residential subdivision on land that has frontage to Ferry Lane, Pisa Moorings Rd and Wakefield Lane.
Sixteen of the 18 sections, which would be in residential resource (3) zoning, would be smaller than the 1000sq m required in the Central Otago District Council's district plan.
The sections would range in size from 850sq m to 1145sq m.
No submissions on the application were received and council planning consultant David Whitney had recommended the application be approved, subject to conditions.
The hearings panel's decision to grant the consent was released last week.
The decision said any adverse effects associated with the subdivision would be no more than minor, including effects on the area's character and amenity values, roading network and provision of services.
