Greenslade Reserve Stage 2

John Gillon from

Work is due to begin soon on Stage 2 of the Greenslade Reserve stormwater project, which includes lowering the sportsfield and creating an urban wetland (part of the Te Ara Awataha greenway).
Stage 2 was due to be delayed but can now proceed, as it is part of the wider Northcote Development project that has received "Shovel-Ready" funding from the Government.

Works include lowering the sportsfield and the installation of an improved stormwater system to reduce the risk of flooding in the surrounding area including the town centre.
The following new amenities will also be included as part of this project:
• a flourishing urban wetland
• a high-performance sports field
• new terraced seating, BBQ area and walkway.

During construction, there will be no access to the reserve. Works are anticipated to be complete mid-2021.

Some Choice News!

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!
