Some will also know of local community aspirations to see the area retained as Reserve land, with the vision of it being part of a larger potential community orchard in Waterloo Park.
A recent PNCC mailout in the Hokowhitu area seeks public feedback on a revised Draft Plan Change E. Although a side-note indicates otherwise, some of the information on that mailout, and on the PNCC website it references (pncc.govt.nz/roxburgh), appears to imply that the loss of the Waterloo Park Reserve area has already been sanctioned.
In fact, the land exchange proposal decision has not yet been made. Following the public consultation in April/May, and the submissions hearing in early August, Councillors will be debating and voting on the issue this week, as the first step in the final decision process.
This is scheduled as Item 9 on the Agenda for the Strategy & Finance Committee meeting on Wednesday (15th November, estimated start time approx. 10.30 a.m.). Interested members of the public are encouraged to come to the Council Chamber to observe the proceedings.

I found a gift card in the carpark by Mitre 10. It had a post it sticker showing an amount. I went on line to see if there was a name associated with it...no luck. Please contact me if you think it's yours and you know what sort of card and how much is on it!

- See picture. I'm near Arena. Removed woodburner, getting heat pump.
- Demolition wood and kindling scraps - I'll keep the actual bags, so bring a trailer or bags for the scraps.

Over the next six months, around 10,000 cats and kittens will require temporary care to heal, learn and grow. Not only felines, but dogs, small animals and farm animals can all need foster care, and we’re desperately seeking new foster homes around the country.
No matter your circumstances, we are keen to hear from you. Whether you have kids, pets, work full time or can only commit for a couple of weeks, you can make a HUGE difference in the little life of an animal in need ?
We cover training and all costs. All you need to provide is your time and love ? Keen to know more?
Get involved today and get started on the most rewarding journey.
