You won't be eligible if:

How it works
If you're eligible for reimbursement, we'll contact you after your resource consent is approved.
The decision to grant a reimbursement is at the discretion of Council’s heritage advisors.
The heritage advisors may specify certain conditions before granting the reimbursement. You'll need to agree to these conditions in writing and pay back any reimbursed resource consent fees if the conditions are violated.
