The review looked at how the Kaipara District will evolve over the decades ahead, how it will look and feel, how to house a growing population, how we protect our indigenous biodiversity and historic heritage, and how we manage natural hazards as well as a range of other matters.
The District Plan is a large and technical document. To help in understanding the different topics, what issues are of concern, and some of the preliminary thinking to address these concerns, we created 21 Fact sheets. These provide a high-level explanation of each topic and some suggestions about what might need to be changed in the new Proposed District Plan.
Submissions are open Monday 28 April to Monday 30 June 2025.
