Rangiora town centre becoming more about entertainment, relaxation as people shop online

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from Northern Outlook

The Waimakariri District Council's draft Rangiora Town Centre Strategy Blueprint to 2030+ is out for consultation and the council is keen to get as much feedback as possible.

Council business and centres manager Simon Hart said another 6 to 8 hectares of residential space (enough for about 4500 homes) would be required over the next two to three decades to keep up with the area's expected growth. Areas to the west and east of Rangiora have been earmarked for future residential growth.

The draft plan will be on display in the Gables Arcade on High St from February 22 and consultation runs until March 9.

Chickenwire needed

Richard from Rangiora

Hi. I need about 8 sq metres of chicken wire. If you have some lying around that you don't need, I'm happy to take it off your hands, deliver a boot full of recyclables to the tip or pay a bit for it. Please let me know. Thanks.
