Whangārei District Plan

Whangārei District Plan

Whangārei District Council

This data shows the district plan zones for the Whangārei district, including urban zones around the city, rural zones across the wider district, and special-purpose zones for places like the port, hospital, and airport. These zones tell you what you can and can't do on your whenua, particularly if it's in or near an urban area.. 

Whangārei's district plan has had several updates in recent years, so some zones may differ from older maps you have seen.
