The facility will provide accommodation for up to 40 people in need, aged 16 to 24. Most will stay from three to 18 months at a time, providing they are involved in formal education or actively looking for work.
In a decision released on Monday, commissioner Ken Lawn ultimately decided the city-wide community benefits of the hub “marginally outweigh” adverse effects on neighbours, despite his view that the facility would be inconsistent with the district plan.

Akaroa’s cumulative rainfall this year is the lowest it has been in a decade, putting extra pressure on the town’s water supply. Its current total rainfall for the year sits at 447 millimetres – less than half the 10-year average of 957mm.
The council says Duvauchelle’s water supply is also under extra pressure, with the streams that supply it running particularly low for November.
Last month Christchurch residents were also urged to start watching their water use as demand on the city’s water supply network ramped up early.
The seasonal outlook from the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA) indicates the current warm and dry trend is likely to continue until at least the end of the year.

The region's September 2010 earthquake left the Lyttelton Lighthouse leaning over precariously after the foundations of the harbour’s eastern mole on which it stood subsided almost two metres.
It rested that way for eight months, tilting at an angle of 15 degrees – four times that of the Leaning Tower of Pisa – until it was rescued in May 2011. It was then carried by barge across the harbour to safe land, stored carefully near the entrance to the Lyttelton Tunnel.
With the mole, or breakwater, repaired as part of the project to build a cruise-ship berth in Lyttelton, the lighthouse was last week returned to its original spot and affixed to new foundations.
International shipping regulations mean the lighthouse will be off-limits to the public, although people will have a good view of it from nearby Naval Point – and of course from the sea.
And while its days as a navigation necessity came to an end in the early 1990s, the glow of its paraffin lamp replaced by modern lights, the Lyttelton Lighthouse will still shine out across the harbour.
