Make a submission

You can make a submission to give your feedback on consultations we carry out on a regular basis.

What is a submission and how you can make one?

A submission is a way that you can have a say on Council’s current consultations. You can make an individual submission, a submission on behalf of a group or a joint submission.

If you are making a submission that isn’t related to a District Plan change or a notified Resource Consent (for example, submissions to Council's Long Term Plan or proposed policy changes) you don't have to use our online form. Please get in touch with us and we'll help you get through to the right person.

Your submission can be made by email to submissions@huttcity.govt.nz, by completing our online submission form or in writing: send it to Hutt City Council, Private Bag 31912, Lower Hutt, 5040. Please make sure your contact details are included in your submission if you want to speak to a committee under public comment, or if you want to be updated on meeting times and decisions.
