Natural heritage protection - information sessions
Council is in the early stages of strengthening protections for important native flora and fauna habitats and coastal and inland landscapes and features.
Council is now starting a series of drop-in information sessions for property owners who have had potential sites identified on their land. The sessions provide additional opportunities for affected property owners to have one-on-one discussions with Council staff, ecologists and landscape architects.
The first drop-in session is at the Kelson Community Centre, 5A Timaru Grove, Kelson between 4 and 8pm on Wednesday 7 March.
Another will be held at East Harbour Women’s Clubrooms, 145 Muritai Drive, Eastbourne between 4 and 8pm on Monday 12 March.
A Wainuiomata session will be announced once a date and venue have been confirmed.

25.1% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
16% ... It is complicated
