Making great spaces to live in commercial areas
Living in a flat above shops in a commercial area can be great – but equally not if the flat is too small, with no private outdoor living space, or insufficient privacy. We’re proposing to add rules in the city plan around residential activities in the commercial zone to ensure they deliver better outcomes for residents. Go to www.tauranga.govt.nz... to find out more, and help shape the city plan rules to ensure new builds create great spaces and neighbourhoods for us all to live in. Survey closes Tue 19 May.
