17.3 Tongariro River Flood Protection Differential Rating System

<< Previous

 Next >>

A proposed differential rating scheme has been developed for the Tongariro River flood protection and river management works.

The differential rating scheme defines five classes of direct benefit in and adjacent to the township of Turangi. The direct benefits relate to properties which are floodable, or at risk of being flooded or eroded due to changes in the course of the River.

It is proposed that the scheme will be based on capital value.
