Greerton Maarawaewae Study
A community conversation on the future use of the Tauranga Racecourse Reserve sparked more than 650 pieces of feedback as part of the Greerton Maarawaewae Study, a partnership between Council and Kāinga Ora – Homes and Communities.
Darren Toy, Bay of Plenty Regional Director of Kāinga Ora and Commissioners Anne Tolley and Shadrach Rolleston are pictured here looking through some of the feedback we received from our focus groups.
As a result of this community conversation, seven draft options have been proposed for your consideration.
These options are now available on our website for you to look at over the summer break www.tauranga.govt.nz...
In February we’ll hold some more community days to provide information and respond to your questions.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
