Tamahere 2025-2075
We are seeking community input for future plans for Tamahere. A community plan is being developed to set a strategy and plan for the next 50 years, in 10 year steps.
What will our community look like? What do we want it to look like?
The Southern Links state highway connection between the SH1 Expressway and SH3 is likely to be built in +/- 10 years, what will this mean for the community? Will land north of Southern Links become part of Hamilton City? Will land south of Southern Links become part of Waipa District? What do you want?
We would like to know your views! Please email tamaherecommunity@gmail.com
Waipu Lifecare & Village
The sun through the skylight, a tui singing in the garden and a fresh batch of scones on the kitchen bench... that’s what ‘A Better Everyday’ feels like at Waiapu Village. Just minutes from Havelock North Village, Waiapu is a smaller village where you’re never just a number.
To discover how good life can be at Waiapu Village, visit our Open Home or call Jude on 027 215 8156 for a tour. We can’t wait to show you around!
Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?
All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.
But whether Hamilton East’s Ryan Hamilton, Hamilton West’s Tama Potaka and soon-to-be Labour list MP Georgie Dansey have the combined power to shunt transport minister Chris Bishop and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon onto their line of thinking remains to be seen.
Are you a Te Huia fan? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
