111A Cliffs Road - SUB-2016-84 & LUC-2016-430 - subdivide into 2 lots

The proposal is to subdivide the subject site at 111A Cliffs Road, Dunedin, into two new lots. Proposed Lot 1 will have an area of approximately 1017m2, and will contain the existing dwelling. Proposed Lot 2 will be a vacant site of 1015m2 suitable for development with a single residential unit. Both new lots will obtain access to Cliffs Road via rights of way, the unformed section of Isodore Road, and the right of way known locally as Lyders Road. The applicant proposes seal extension works to upgrade a 40m long section of Lyders Road between 160m and 200m from the intersection of Cliffs Road to a width of up to 5.0m.The subject site is zoned Residential 1 in the Dunedin City District Plan. The relevant provisions of the Proposed Second Generation District Plan have not yet been given effect or are not operative. Therefore, only the provisions of the Dunedin City District Plan apply to the assessment of the application at this time.

The subdivision is considered to be a non-complying activity pursuant to Rule 18.5.2 due to the new lots having no frontage to legal road.

Land use consent is required pursuant to Rule 20.5.7(iv)(g) which specifies that a private access way shall have a maximum of 12 users. The additional residential lot created by the subdivision will result in 17 permitted or consented users utilising the lower section of Lyders Road for vehicle access.
