Shoreline Adaptation Plans: Waitematā Harbour West and Weiti Estuary to Devonport Peninsula
We are preparing shoreline adaptation plans (SAPs) across the region.
The plans will:
- look at how we can adapt Auckland Council-owned land and assets to respond to coastal hazards and climate change over the next 100 years.
- promote the preservation and restoration of the coastal environment for future generations.
The areas relevant to your local board are:
- Campbells Bay

Poll: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
