It's five years in the making and Auckland's Unitary Plan has finally been released, but the process isn't over just yet.
Councillors have made a raft of changes to the recommended plan put forward by an independent hearings panel last month, mostly on the advice of council staff.
Submitters on the plan now have four weeks to lodge appeals against any of those changes through the Environment Court.
Appeals could be lodged by developers at Crater Hill and Okura, and the Property Council says it hasn't ruled out appealing minor parts of the plan.
"The singing Mayor" Len Brown has used his vocal skills to express how Unitary Plan manager John Duguid and his staff will also be investigating any anomalies - watch it above.
