Subdivision Scoping Service
Get Council Consent by proving availability of rural internet and phone services at your subdivision.
When you subdivide rural land you’ll need a letter for the council to prove that you can get internet and phone services at the area you want to subdivide.
As rural Waikato’s and Bay of Plenty’s go-to rural broadband provider for fast wireless internet we can help you with the necessary documentation you need to prove you are capable of providing internet and phone services at the new subdivision.
Whether you’re looking at subdividing one lot or multiple lots, our friendly field technicians can take care of it in one visit.
Rural living shouldn't be about compromises
More than 8,000 rural households across the Waikato and Bay of Plenty enjoy city like internet speeds.

The fee for 2 lots to be scoped is $1,000 (excluding GST). When you have 3 or more lots you wish to subdivide please contact us for a quote.

Step 1
File a request &
Desktop analysis
When you’d like to subdivide your land please provide the rural team with the following information;
- Address for site scope

The rural sales team will check if your subdivision is in range of the Lightwire network via a desktop analysis. If a Lightwire tower seems in range and has a clear line of sight to the land you wish to subdivide we can arrange an on-site visit by one of our field technicians.
Step 2
on-site visit
A Lightwire field technician will visit the lot(s) you would like to subdivide to confirm there’s line of sight to one of our existing towers, and if the signal levels are sufficiently high to provide fast and reliable internet and phone service.
Step 3
Decision & documentation
When we’re confident that we can connect the future lot(s) we’ll provide you with the documentation stating that Lightwire can provide telecommunications services at the address you want to subdivide.
You’ll need this letter for the council’s consent.
