That means you’ve got the weekend to finalise your feedback and we’d love to hear from you. We have to make this plan change because of central government direction to enable more higher density housing as one way of addressing the housing shortage.

Intensification is proposed across residential zones (up to 3 dwellings of up to 3 storeys). Taller buildings would be enabled around our train stations south of the Ōtaki River, and in and around our centres. Read more about the centres-based approach on pp.9-11 of draft plan change 2. This is in line with both the national direction and our new growth strategy Te tupu pai. Here's some key things you need to know for Paraparaumu, Raumati and Paekākāriki:

1. We have one "metropolitan centre" – the Paraparaumu Metropolitan Zone. The draft plan change proposes enabling up to 12 storeys within that zone, and up to six storeys within an 800m walkable catchment of the edge of it.

2. For our town centres, which include Paraparaumu Beach and Raumati Beach, the draft plan change proposes enabling up to 6 storeys inside those zones, and up to 4 storeys within a 400m walkable catchment of the edge of those zones.

3. For our local centres, which include Kena Kena, Mazengarb Road, Meadows and Raumati South, the draft plan change proposes enabling up to 4 storeys inside those zones, and up to 4 storeys within a 200m walkable catchment of the edge of those zones.

4. Paekākāriki is a local centre but because it is close to the Paekākāriki railway station, intensification of housing will be enabled of up to 6 storeys within 800m of the station.

5. “Qualifying matters” may limit the heights or densities possible on particular sites. This is explained on pp.11-12 of draft plan change 2.

6. “Special character” is not a qualifying matter so the draft plan change would remove the existing rules that restrict development density in these areas. This means their character is likely to change over time. However, we’re proposing a ‘managed change’ approach. This means where future development in these areas will require a resource consent, the notable characteristics of these areas will be considered. Read more about this on p.14 of draft plan change 2.

To find out more and have your say, go to Draft plan change 2 - Kāpiti Coast District Council (kapiticoast.govt.nz) on our website. Feedback on this ‘draft’ plan change closes at 5pm on Monday 2 May 2022, but you will have a further opportunity to have your say when we publicly notify the ‘proposed’ plan change in the middle of the year.

Come to Cameo, Mahara Place, Monday 2nd May 1030-noon if you are having trouble with computers, iPads or phones and volunteers from the library, SeniorNet, Citizens Advice Bureau and Cameo can help you!!

Tell your friends if you know they are struggling -

And if you yourself are a real whizz on any of these devices, please let us know and come along and be one of the volunteers - people are being forced into using technology whether they want to or not as government departments and banks make it harder to operate any other way, so we need more of you if we can! 😊😊😊

"A short trip on Transmission Gully out to the Waikanae Estuary is always a great place to observe and photograph the local birdlife. I was pretty rapt with our Caspian tern and white faced heron experience in particular. Both were in hunting mode, and as you can see both met with success too!"
