Note: This decision does not affect boats moored in the bay.
Local Park Management Plan (LPMP):
The LSB Boatyard Inc's licence (which had been rolling over monthly since it expired in 2012) had become contrary to the reserve's management intentions when the LPMP was adopted in February.
The LPMP states the following intentions for Little Shoal Bay Reserve: "Discontinue boat maintenance and haulage yard activities on the reserve" and "Repurpose the boat maintenance and haulage yard area to support a greater range of recreation activities".
These intentions stop boatyard activities and were adopted following a robust democratic process with public consultation on all aspects of the reserve.
The LPMP hearing panel heard from LSB Boatyard Inc as well as supporters and opponents of the boat yard. After careful deliberation, the hearing panel concluded that the the activities should cease and recommended that to the Local Board. The Local Board endorsed this when it adopted the LPMP.
Boat Yard Remediation:
As part of the Shoreline Adaptation Plan process to plan for flooding in the reserve, the Local Board requested contamination testing of Little Shoal Bay Reserve following concerns that there was polluted material in the bay. The tests largely came back fine, except for the boat yard area which was found to be contaminated with heavy metals above the Unitary Plan discharge limits; and copper, lead, zinc, TBT and PCB concentrations above the Australian and New Zealand Guidelines for Fresh and Marine Water Quality sediment guidelines. The contaminants are not considered a danger to humans, but could be detrimental to the harbour.
Remediation of the boat yard area should be completed next week, with around 1,000m3 of contaminated material removed to stop it leaching into the harbour (30cm depth over 3,000m2). The area is being reinstated as gravel, but this can be changed in the future depending on the outcome of consultation. The damaged boat ramp has also been repaired as part of the project.

Life Education Trust New Zealand has been a beacon of empowerment for Kiwi children and youth for over 35 years. Through innovative teaching programmes, this trust has touched the lives of tamariki and rangatahi across the country, helping them grow and thrive. Supported by funding from Te Puna Tahua Lottery Grants Board, through funds raised by Lotto New Zealand players, Life Education Trust's initiatives - including the renowned ‘Healthy Harold’ programme - have been instrumental in shaping the educational landscape in Aotearoa.
With mobile classrooms traversing the nation, Life Education Trust reaches over 200,000 tamariki every year, bringing quality education to various communities. The unique approach of using specialist educators and Harold the giraffe mascot creates a safe and engaging learning environment.
Life Education Trust is set to launch Harold's Studio this year. This new endeavour will leverage technology to deliver Healthy Harold lessons through online platforms, showcasing the trust's commitment to evolving and enhancing its educational offerings to meet the changing needs of tamariki.
One hundred percent of Lotto New Zealand’s profits go back to support thousands of great causes all over Aotearoa. So, every time you play any Lotto NZ game, it’s a win for our communities, and it’s a win for our tamariki.

Fundraiser Seedling Liberation Event
Saturday 18 May 9.00 am – 12.00 noon
Did you miss the big seedlings sale at Ngataringa Organic Garden (4/27 Lake Road, Devonport, opposite the Recycling Centre) last weekend? Good news, we still have a lot of seedlings looking for a new home, all ready for planting out into your beds or containers. As a local community garden we would love your support and know you’ll care for these seedlings as much as we have 💚🌱
We have lots of varieties available, including the super healthy kales, peas, cauliflower, a variety of onions, lettuces, celery, spinach, silverbeet, and so many more. These are all ready to pop into a bed or container so you can get those organic winter veggies rolling for the whānau. These seedlings have been sown in sterilised recycled punnets using organic seeds and mixes to the extent possible. Six-pack punnets often contain 10-12 plants and the suggested koha is $3-$5 per punnet.
