Daylighting lines are intended to reduce shading of adjacent areas by ensuring that buildings fall at an angle that allows sunlight to penetrate the adjacent site.

Some exceedances of the daylight allowance lines are permissible for the end of a roof ridge or for solar panels, recognizing the limited dimensions of these items. Exceeding daylight allowance lines in compact density, intensive and comprehensive residential developments may have a greater level of effect that should be considered through a resource consent process.
