How do you see the future?
We’re working through a review of our District Plan and are proposing some big changes for residential and rural development. It’s called Plan Change 50. We’re seeking your feedback on our draft proposals now.
Two areas of significant interest for our community will be what’s being proposed for rural development.
🐑Like enabling more options for rural-residential living through rural lifestyle and settlement zones, easing consent flexibility and increasing climate resilience.
🍅And protecting our rural high class soils to enable future primary production and localised food growing opportunities.
To read the fact sheets for both of these zones and to share your feedback, go to letskorero.upperhuttcity.com/pc50

Do you recognise any of these bikes? 🚲
Wellington Police have recently recovered eight bikes and would like to reunite them with their owners.
If you believe one is yours, head to the Wellington Police Station to retrieve your property. Make sure to bring either a proof of purchase or serial number to prove ownership.
