Kaipātiki residents are being asked to share their thoughts on plans to protect and manage local coastal areas by having their say on the draft Waitematā Harbour West Shoreline Adaptation Plan (SAP).
“Our coastal assets here in Kaipātiki are incredibly important and they need to be properly managed to ensure they are there for future generations to enjoy, so we encourage our residents to have a close look at the plan that council has developed to make sure it meets the needs and priorities of our local population,” explains Kaipātiki Chair John Gillon.
SAPs are documents focusing on how Auckland Council can manage its coastal land and assets including reserves, coastal defence structures and public facilities over the next 100 years. There are around 20 SAPs in development across Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland developed in partnership with mana whenua with guidance from infrastructure providers, technical experts and coastal communities.
The draft Waitematā Harbour West SAP consultation is open now until 26 September 2024.
The area covered includes Birkdale, Bayview, Windy Ridge, Greenhithe, Schnapper Rock, Paremoremo, Riverhead, Whenuapai, Hobsonville, West Harbour, Massey, Te Atatū, Glendene, New Lynn, Rosebank, Avondale, Point Chevalier, Herne Bay and Westhaven.
