Waimanu Lagoons Management Plan 2000

Council manages and maintains over 130 parks and reserves on your behalf – from playgrounds and sportsgrounds, to esplanades and scenic and native bush reserves.

Reserve Management Plans guide how we use our parks and reserves

Reserve Management Plans guide the Council in the management and development of our parks and reserves, and reflect what the community values and how they like to use these spaces. They guide decisions for the reserve(s) by setting out objectives, policies and sometimes rules for how the reserve(s) are used, managed, protected or developed.
