Your Vision for Paraparaumu

Glen Olsen from Parapraumu Community Board

It is incredible to see how much Paraparaumu has changed over the last 20 years; how much more will it change in the next 20+ years?
We WANT YOU to let us know YOUR vision for Paraparaumu, what is good or bad about Paraparaumu/Paraparaumu Beach, what is missing, and how WOULD YOU like to see Paraparaumu develop.
This is your chance to be heard, and we would like to ask your thoughts on four simple questions:
1: What makes Paraparaumu special
2: What is working well in Paraparaumu?
3: What can be improved upon?
4: What is your vision for Paraparaumu?

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!
