Submissions open for Proposed Waikato District Plan
The community can now make a submission regarding Waikato District Council’s Proposed Plan.
Key changes between the current Operative Plan and the Proposed Plan include:
• The adding of around 60 heritage sites and buildings, along with 16 notable trees to their respective lists. The rules have been amended to provide for ongoing maintenance and care or repair.
• A consistent residential zone and redeveloped village zone, along with three business zones. Additional residential zone areas have also been created in Tuakau, Pokeno, Te Kowhai, Taupiri, Ngaruawahia and Horotiu to allow for growth, along with an additional industrial zoned area in Huntly.
• Under the Taangata Whenua chapter, flexible provisions have been created that give more options for those with Maaori Freehold Land.
Community drop-in sessions will be held in August and September throughout the district - find out more here.
