About the team 

After changes in early 2023, we would like to introduce our current Consultant Support team and talk about how we manage the INRCConsultants@ccc.govt.nz inbox.

There are three staff who primarily support you via the INRCConsultants@ccc.govt.nz inbox:

  • Gina Robson
  • Andrew Jackson
  • Dylan Cresswell-Miley

You will hear from one of us each month, as we are rostered monthly to monitor the inbox (starting and finishing mid-month). However, in times of absence or when required, any one of us can step in.  

You may have also noticed that some of your regular Council Consultant staff are no longer emailing you. This is due to Claire and Mia leaving Council earlier in 2023 and Debbie moving back into her regular role.

Helpful tips

Here are some tips to help make the administration a little easier and more consistent for everyone:

Your invoices

  • All invoices need to include the associated RMA number. 
  • Please indicate whether it is an interim or final invoice.
  • Your invoices should also have a brief breakdown of what the costs are associated with. For example, 30mins of report writing by a senior planner. 

Include your new purchase order numbers every time

  • New consents need their own purchase order (PO) number.
  • Any historic purchase order numbers you have should be ignored, and if you are unsure if the purchase order number is old, please ask. 

Information is key

  • Any information relating to items such as clock holds should be forwarded to INRCConsultants@ccc.govt.nz as evidence of the request, so we can place it on the file. 
  • For any email conversations you send us for our information, please ensure to include any attachments. 

s37 extensions

  • If there was a delay and the reasoning is mainly due to the applicant, or their agent, then please request an s37 extension without offering a discount. 

If you need any assistance, email INRCConsultants@ccc.govt.nz and we will get back to you as soon as we can.
