Surrendering your consent

If you no longer need your resource consent, you can apply to Greater Wellington to surrender it (for no charge). However, you’ll still be liable for any past breaches of consent conditions. You may also be required to complete any works the consent authorises.

Once you’ve surrendered your consent you can’t reactivate it, and you need to apply for a new consent if you change your mind.

You may use a Greater Wellington Surrender of permit form.
