Meeting tonight about Significant Natural Areas, is your property affected?

Lorraine from Broadmeadows

I think neighbours will be interested in this post I found on the Ngaio, Crofton Downs, Khandallah, Broadmeadows Community Group in Facebook:

IS YOUR GARDEN NOW "BACKYARD TAONGA"?
Public Meeting to discuss the Council's Significant Natural Areas (SNA) policy.

Khandallah Town Hall, 11 Ganges Road, 7.30pm Tuesday 20 July

"Significant Natural Areas", or Backyard Taonga, is a Wellington City Council initiative to designate areas of significant biodiversity on public and private land as protected. This will have implications for property rights and values. So far 1693 private Wellington properties are affected, and about 18% of the city's total land area

Mayor Andy Foster and council officers will be present to explain the policy and answer questions.

Organised by the Wellington SNA Committee (WSNAC)

To see whether your property is affected, click on heading Significant Natural Areas, top left, and keep enlarging.
