Coastal building lines
The purpose of the coastal building line is to restrict the placement of permanent development, such as houses or pools, on land considered at high risk from sea erosion. Structures for coastal protection purposes are not restricted seaward of the coastal building line, but may be assessable development under the Integrated Planning Act 1997.
Coastal building lines are declared in a coastal management district under the Coastal Protection and Management Regulation 2003.
For further information on coastal building lines see: Buildings seaward of the coastal building line
