Following a policy review under the Building Act 2004, Kawerau District Council has adopted a revised draft policy for dangerous, affected and insanitary buildings for public consultation. Key changes in the draft policy are that:
- Layout and structure of document
- Statutory definitions are set out in full and include section references; and
- Council’s approach to its functions in relation to dangerous, affected and insanitary buildings is more clearly set out.
The changes are intended to improve clarity of the policy and understanding for users.

The draft policy is available for inspection at the District Office in Ranfurly Court and on Council’s website: http://www.kaweraudc.govt.nz
