General Industrial Zone
35 sections
Miramar/Burnham Wharf Precinct
Purpose The General Industrial Zone is developed and used primarily for industrial activities and the City’s short, medium and long term needs for land for such activities are met.
Sensitive activities Sensitive activities are not established in the General Industrial Zone unless they are necessary for, and do not undermine, the functional operation of industrial activities.
Commercial activities Commercial activities are not established in the General Industrial Zone unless they: Are ancillary to industrial activities; or Are of a nature and scale that does not undermine the hierarchy of Centres.
Protection of the General Industrial Zone Industrial activities and the role and function of the General Industrial Zone are not constrained or compromised by: Incompatible activities and/or reverse sensitivity effects; and Activities sensitive to nuisance effects including odour, dust, and noise.
Amenity and design The scale, form and design of new development in the General Industrial Zone positively contributes to creating a well-functioning urban environment, and responds to any functional needs or operational needs.
Managing effects Adverse effects from use and development of the General Industrial Zone are compatible with the local neighbourhood and managed effectively, particularly in relation to any sensitive activities in neighbouring zones.
Purpose Miramar/Burnham Wharf is used, operated and developed effectively for operational port activities.
Enabled activities Enable industrial activities in the General Industrial Zone.
Heavy industrial activities Only allow heavy industrial activities in the General Industrial Zone where adverse effects on other activities are adequately managed.
Sensitive Activities Avoid the establishment of sensitive activities in the General Industrial Zone, unless such activities are: Ancillary to a permitted or consented activity on the same site; and Sufficiently insulated or distanced from nuisance effects including odour, dust and noise effects of existing activities or other activities permitted in the Zone.
Commercial activities Avoid commercial activities in the General Industrial Zone except for: Office, retail and other commercial activities which are ancillary to industrial activities; and Trade supply retail, wholesalers, building improvement centres, service retail and yard based retail.
Design of new development Encourage enhancements to local context and amenity, while enabling innovation and choice in the design of new built development and recognising the functional needs and operational needs of industrial activities.
Zone interfaces Require uses and developments within the General Industrial Zone to maintain a reasonable level of amenity for adjoining Residential Zones or other sensitive activities.
Miramar/Burnham Wharf Precinct Provide for operational port activities in the Miramar/Burnham Wharf precinct and manage the height, bulk and location of buildings and structures in a way that: Mitigates any adverse effects on the amenity of nearby residential properties; and Ensures that the height of proposed buildings and structures does not adversely affect the safe and efficient operation of Wellington International Airport.
