metlifecare glenfield

Civitas was engaged by Metlifecare to secure resource consent for 96 apartments, 36 care units and communal facilities on the remnant of an orchard in Stanley Road, Glenfield.

The project required the staged development of a three-building, four to five storey complex within a suburban residential area of detached single storey housing.

The project also required the relocation and restoration of a scheduled heritage building, which is now used as a café open to the public as well as residents.

This publicly notified project required coordination of numerous parties, public consultation, and presentation of evidence at the Council hearing.
