1. Rural industries on Māori land, activities associated with a marae complex on Treaty settlement land greater than 250m2 GFA and marae complex on Māori land greater than 700m2 GFA

a.Rural location

i.The activity must be proposed in a rural zone.

b.Rural character and amenity values

i.The design and location of the buildings, and site landscaping should avoid, remedy or mitigate the adverse visual effects of the buildings and related site works on rural and rural coastal character and amenity values. The following aspects are particularly relevant:

•building bulk

•glare or reflections off the exterior cladding

•landform modification needed for building platforms

•screening from neighbouring sites

•views of the buildings from any public road or open space used for recreation, including any beach, coastal marine area, coastline, or regional park

•related signage.

c.Noise

i.Noise from fans, ventilators, heaters, or other machines, for from on-site activities should be adequately mitigated.
