Should There Be Special Provisions for 'Tiny Houses'?
Tasman District Council has recently released a new guide called "Provisions for Tiny Houses" which aims to clarify which consents and permissions would be required to live in a 'tiny house' in Tasman District. You can download the guide from the TDC website.
At present, there exist no provisions in either national or local regulations which might set a 'tiny house' apart from any regular house and which would thus make the construction or occupation of a 'tiny house' any easier or more affordable than that of a regular house.
Our survey's aim was to establish general resident's opinions and was open to all residents of Tasman District.
