How we'll protect cultural sites and historic heritage buildings is part of our district plan review.
We're now holding the first public engagement on the review. This is your chance to learn more and have your say on critical issues like how we'll house a growing population, manage natural hazards and sea level rise, protect indigenous biodiversity and a whole lot more.
We've got public open days, together with the 10 Year Plan team, tomorrow at the Walter Nash Centre, Taita and Petone Library, both at 6-8pm. This is your chance to learn more about the review and ask questions.
