The Māpua waterfront boat ramp initiative has taken another step forward with the Māpua Boat Ramp Community Trust’s resource consent application being notified by the Council.

Read the full resource consent public notice here. 

As with the majority of community assets, we have provided financial support via Reserve Financial Contributions collected through development in the ward. Any further funding will only be granted if there is a positive outcome for the Trust, who will also have to provide at least a third of the total cost of development.

As the regulator in this process, we are encouraging feedback to assist in the making of an informed decision regarding the Māpua Boat Ramp’s future.

The outcome of any resource consent application relies on all views submitted by the public being given equal consideration – without favour – to achieve a fair decision.

View the application and supporting material via the link above or at any Council service centre or library. Submissions close 5.00 pm Monday 26 February 2024.
