District Plan Change 43
Hutt City Council is more than half way through its extended four-month submission period on proposed District Plan Change 43 – Residential and Suburban Mixed Use.
The plan change would enable medium-density housing and a wider range of housing types to be built in the city with a focus on nine suburban centres.
Due to strong public interest, Council will hold an additional two information days where people can drop in and ask questions about the proposed changes and get advice on how to make a submission. Eight information days have already been held.
Information day dates and venues:
Friday 16 February 10am-2pm Council Administration Building, 30 Laings Road
Wednesday 21 February 10am-2pm The Dowse, 45 Laings Road
Wednesday 21 February 4pm-8pm The Dowse, 45 Laings Road
Thursday 22 February 3pm-8pm Wainuiomata Memorial Hall supper room, Queen St, Wainuiomata
Saturday 24 February 10am-2pm The Dowse, 45 Laings Road
Tuesday 27 February 4pm-8pm Naenae Community Hall, Cnr Everest and Treadwell Streets, Naenae

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
