(file photo)New Plymouth District Council has moved its building consent process into the modern era. It’s launched a new digital option which allows people to apply, pay and track their application until a decision is made and delivered to their computer, smartphone or tablet. The option is part of the NPDC’s $20 million Back On Our Feet measures to help keep the building sector humming and will complement the organisation’s existing services, community and customer services group manager Teresa Turner said. Anyone wanting a consent can go to a new secure section of the NPDC website, bc.npdc.govt.nz, where they can complete the whole transaction online.
