Help us with Placemaking in Hikurangi and Tikipunga

The Team from Whangarei District Council

Today we have begun the next round of Placemaking work for Hikurangi and Tikipunga - and we want to hear from you!

We previously asked people what they value about these communities, and what they want to see changed. Now we want to establish what the long-term opportunities are for each place.

In addition to the new online survey you can also come to one of our drop-in sessions or community workshops - these will really help us understand what ideas are the best for each place.

Communities have their own set of qualities, unique characteristics and people who make them special. How do you want yours to be?

Start here: wdc.govt.nz...
