Placemaking Plans is for WDC and the Tikipunga & Hikurangi Community

Krissy Neighbourly Lead from Tikipunga

HAVE YOUR SAY IF YOU ARE IN HIKURANGI OR TIKIPUNGA

Whangārei District Council of relevance to those with interests in Hikurangi and Tikipunga.

More information can be found here:
www.wdc.govt.nz...

Over the next 12 months we are developing Placemaking Plans for Hikurangi and Tikipunga.

Placemaking Plans are collaborative plans put together by Council alongside the community, mana whenua and key stakeholders to build a future vision for how a location will change and develop over the next 20-30 years.

Plans for Hikurangi and Tikipunga will be the first to be developed and plans for other areas will follow.

The first step is to carry out a survey to better understand these areas and what matters most to the people in these communities.

The survey isn’t just limited to people who live in Hikurangi or Tikipunga - we also want to hear from people who regularly visit these areas to work, shop, visit friends and whanau or use the parks, sportsgrounds and other facilities in these areas.

Begin the Placemaking Survey

The survey is open until July 8 2020 and can be completed in about 5 minutes.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
