Hoarding and barricades

Key information

If you start to make a payment in our online platform but don't complete the transaction, you must wait 15 minutes before trying again.

Hoarding and barricades protect the public during construction and keep the construction site secure.

If you need hoarding for a building permit, you’ll need a Report and Consent before we issue the building permit.

Examples of hoarding include:

  • temporary fencing
  • scaffolding
  • overhead structures that cars can drive through.

You must have a permit to put up hoarding or protective barriers on Council land.
