About the Waiheke Local Parks Management Plan - Uniquely Waiheke


What we are proposing

In 2018, the Waiheke Local Board asked for feedback (under section 41 of the Reserves Act 1977) on how you use your parks and how you would like to use them in the future. We used that feedback to create the draft Waiheke Local Parks Management Plan.

The draft plan guides the management of Waiheke local parks and outlines how we will manage local parks and protect their values over the next ten years.

The draft plan

The draft plan covers all parks and reserves owned and managed by Auckland Council on Waiheke Island, except for Rangihoua Onetangi Sports Park, and Whakanewha Regional Park. That includes 125 parks and more than 280 hectares of land. The parks include a variety of recreation, natural, landscape and cultural values that need to be managed, protected and in some cases enhanced.

The ideas in the draft local parks management plan come from our consultation with the community, community organisations, mana whenua and mataawaka.

The Draft Waiheke Local Parks Management Plan is in two volumes.

Volume 1 sets out the scope and purpose of the plan.

Volume 2 is a more detailed look at what the plan will mean for individual parks.

The plan has been prepared in line with the Reserves Act 1977.

What we want your feedback on

We want to hear from the Waiheke community so we can make sure we’ve got the plan right.

  • if there is anything we should change
