Have your say - Totara Park playground revamp

The Team from Kāpiti Coast District Council

Ngā mihi to all the Ōtaki tamariki and rangatahi who joined us at Totara Park playground on Saturday afternoon to tell us how they’d like this well-loved playground revamped. Totara Park is coming to the end of its safe playing life, so we’d love to know your thoughts.

If you couldn’t make it on Saturday, our passionate team will be back at Totara Park 10–11am Thursday 7 September, and are keen to chat about your playground aspirations. You can also have your say online by 18 September 👉🏼 haveyoursay.kapiticoast.govt.nz...

We aim to create playgrounds that are accessible, fun, varied, and cater for a wide range of abilities. Have questions about how we do playground upgrades and what happens to old equipment? Find out more at www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...
