Have your say on sports spaces in Selwyn
Selwyn residents are being asked to have their say on what sports, recreation and play spaces the district needs in the next decade.
The district council opened consultation this week on its Draft Sport, Active Recreation and Play, Spaces and Places Plan.
Residents have until Friday, December 9 to share feedback on the provision of spaces and places to support sport, active recreation and play in Selwyn over the next 10 years.
"We have been working with local clubs, organisations and educators to help prepare the draft Plan, but wider community feedback will be key," council community services and facilities group manager Denise Kidd said.
“Sports and recreation are a big part of what makes Selwyn a great place to live. We’re seeing big growth in our sports clubs and in the use of our parks and sports facilities. We want to encourage that and make sure we’ve got what is needed to meet what the community wants now and into the future.”
Submissions will help the council build on what the sector has told it so far and allow for community views to be considered in the decision-making.
The council said it would review all feedback before approving the final plan.

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕
Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!
Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫

The Press just released an article on the proposed plan to pump sewage into the sea, and it’s got us thinking. We’ve always been proud of our environment, but is the "Clean and Green" reputation still earned?
What’s your take? Are we doing enough to look after our backyard? Is it time for a new slogan? 💬
