On behalf of the GCL team, we extend our sincere condolences to the family, friends, and colleagues of Sir Bill Birch.

Fraser had the privilege of working alongside Sir Bill and his team on numerous projects, for over 15 years, and it has been an honour for GCL to continue that valued relationship following Fraser's passing.

It was a true privilege to attend Sir Bill's service today. Listening to the stories of his life reminded us that leadership is not only measured by achievements, but by the way we treat others and the example we leave behind. We left with a renewed appreciation for the strength that comes from remaining calm, resilient, and compassionate throughout life's journey.

What is PC120?

PC120 (Proposed Plan Change 120: Housing Intensification and Resilience) is a significant update to the Auckland Unitary Plan. It sets the rules for where new housing can be built and how the city manages natural disaster risks.

How could it affect your development geotechnically?

If your development site has sloped terrain, clay soils, or sits near cliffs, PC120 impacts your project in several ways.

PC120 requires rigorous risk assessments that model specific landslide scenarios based on likelihood and climate change projections.

How can we help?
By providing a Landslide Hazard Risk Assessment.

Get in touch with us today to discuss your PC120 requirements.
