Consultation has now concluded
Give us your feedback on our new Dangerous, Affected and Insanitary Buildings Policy
Councils’ current Dangerous Building Policy and Insanitary Buildings Policy have come up for their 5 yearly review under the Building Act 2004. We have decided to combine the two policies into one, so it is more convenient for users and the general public.
The combined policy does not outline a significant change in approach; instead it aims to more clearly and comprehensively outline what building owners and the community can expect from Council. In this policy, owners, tenants and others associated with the building industry will find the Council’s responsibilities outlined regarding how we respond to complaints about dangerous, affected and/ or insanitary buildings in our district.
Councils' top priority is managing the risk to the community posed by these buildings. This policy aims to reduce the risk of injury, death, ill health or damage within Invercargill and Bluff by identifying and managing dangerous, affected and insanitary buildings that may affect the safety and wellbeing of the public.
Let us know what you think of our policy in the submission form below, consultation closes on Friday 19 July 2024
