Several people raised their concern at the way the City Council is persisting in selling off pocket parks.
With intensification now happening, home gardens will be but a memory for most in the foreseeable future. So we cannot afford to lose any of these public green spaces. In fact we will need more of them throughout Auckland if we value a healthy city where families can connect and play.
In reply to questions, Councillor Penny Hulst said the money gained from sales of pocket parks in one area will be used to establish green spaces in other parts of Auckland which have less of them i.e. robbing Peter to pay Paul. If this was not done rates would have to go up very substantially which would not be popular.
However, developers of subdivisons at present have to contribute several thousands of dollars per unit as a reserve contribution. Surely this money can and should be used to buy new pocket parks, especially in parts of the city where there are few of them and where housing density will be highest.

Biosecurity New Zealand lifted the Zone A restrictions and moved those properties into Zone B. Check what this means for you at biosecurity.govt.nz/queenslandfruitfly
We know it’s an inconvenience, but the work is vital for our horticultural industries and our backyard fruit trees.
We are grateful for your support, we cannot do this without you.
