The New Zealand Historic Places Trust Pouhere Taonga has prepared these
guidelines on sustainable management of historic heritage to promote understanding
of historic heritage and to assist local authorities, owners and developers
to identify and manage historic heritage in light of the Resource Management
Act (1991) and its 2003 Amendment. The guidelines also provide information
on the legal obligations associated with archaeological sites under the
Historic Places Act.
They are intended particularly for people practising in the resource
management field, but may also be useful for developers, property managers
and others who work with heritage properties.
Use them as
a source of information
guidance when preparing plans and policies that address historic heritage
a checklist when processing resource consents that have effects on
historic heritage, including those that may affect archaeological sites.
The Trust hopes to update these guidelines as thinking and professional
practice advances, as plans and policies are implemented and monitored,
and as case law develops.
