Across greater Auckland there has been a huge surge in the complexity of planning matters arising during the consent process. It takes a lot to navigate the Unitary Plan rules - which can seem like a lot of work to just put in a simple swimming pool - especially one under 35kL! Need any practical advice or help to work through the process? Feel free to reach out!

Christmas Rush
The summer sun begins to gleam,
And pools sparkle like a dream.
But Christmas looms, and there’s a race—
To get that fencing in its place.

The rules are clear, no time to stall,
For safety first must guide us all.
Calls and plans, the rush is on,
Before the festive days are gone.

“Will it be done?” they fret and say,
“We need our pool for Christmas Day!”
Laughter, swims, and family cheer—
But only if compliance is here.

So hurry now, don’t leave it late,
A fenced-off pool will be just great.
Enjoy the season, safe and sound,
With splashes and joy all around!

This sure is an interesting pool fencing situation! What are your thoughts?
