Wellington City Council is drafting some changes to the noise rules in the Wellington City District Plan to support local events, manage construction noise, and other small fixes. We would like to understand community views on these changes before we formally notify the changes for public submissions.

We’re looking at five key areas:

• Construction noise, including the construction vibration standard.
• Noise from music venues.
• Temporary live music events.
• Noise from private dog parks.
• Noise from firearm use.

This is not a formal plan change process yet under the Resource Management Act (RMA). Instead, this is a chance for you to share your thoughts as we draft up the change.
