Wellington Outer Green Belt review

Richard Herbert from Friends of Tawa Bush Reserves Inc.

The Wellington Outer Green Belt is a network of public parks and open spaces extending from Tawa in the north all the way south past the Brooklyn turbine to the south coast. It is an enormous area and the current Management Plan outlines the key values of the reserves and guides how the Council will manage and maintain the various spaces and places.

The first Management Plan for this area was issued in 2004 and is currently being reviewed with a new issue planned for 2018. In the Tawa area there is an initial consultation drop-in workshop happening on Saturday 18th November, 10am - midday at the Linden Social Centre.
In particular this review will add the newly purchased Forest of Tane Block to the Outer Green Belt and plan for future track networks in the area. Come on down to learn more and have a say.

For further background see the attached letter and the web site wellington.govt.nz.... There is also a short online survey where you can quickly and easily give the Council your thoughts – responses by 24th November please.

I'm sure you've seen it while doing your weekly shop... In fact, it may have even been you.

What do you think about people heading to the supermarket in their pyjamas?
