Ways to address your concerns
If your property has been identified as being affected by plan change 27 – flooding from intense rainfall, there are multiple ways to address your concerns:
1) Seek a review of the flooding risk that has been identified for your property.
Email city.plan@tauranga.govt.nz with the relevant property information and a waters engineer will review the situation. The maps provided at www.tauranga.govt.nz... are non-statutory and can be reviewed to take account of any property-specific information, outside of the plan change submission process.
2) Make a submission on the proposed plan change provisions.
To make a submission, submit your feedback online at www.tauranga.govt.nz... pick up a copy at council’s customer service centre or the city’s libraries and email it to city.plan@tauranga.govt.nz; or post it to Manager: City and Infrastructure Planning, Tauranga City Council, Freepost Authority Number 370, Private Bag 12022, Tauranga 3143. Submissions are open until 1 February 2021.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
