Consultation has concluded.
UPDATE:July 2024- The final plan has been adopted.
Thank you to everyone that provided feedback on the draft concept plan for the Katikati Beach Road Boat Ramp and Surrounds which includes the boat ramp, esplanade foreshore reserve, MacMillan Reserve, and 294 Beach Road.
We identified several key themes from community feedback to the proposed areas for development. Some amendments were made to reflect the response to these and to develop the final concept plan.
Consultation with the wider community on the draft concept plan was held from 1 March to 1 April 2024. The community provided their feedback by completing paper and online surveys and in person at the Katikati Fishing Competition weigh-in on 24 February and the Community information session at the Beach Road boat ramp area on 24 March 2024.
We received 127 submissions from this phase of formal community consultation, with 53 submissions coming from our online survey and most of the responses provided in person at the engagement events.
73 percent of submitters who completed the survey told us they supported the proposed draft concept plan, with many providing suggestions for us to consider. It became clear that the area is used frequently and valued by a wide range of the community for a wide range of purposes
The decision story will provide you further information on the decisions made and the finalised plan.
The draft concept plan
The Council team have worked with local hapū, Ngāi Tamawhariua and the Katikati Boating Club to understand the importance of the area and its many uses, and to create a draft plan that enhances this space, so it meets the diverse needs of the community and incorporating the rich cultural and historical heritage of the area.
Our draft concept planoutlined our approach to make this this an enhanced shared space for all. The improvements will include:
Raising and widening the first 30 meters of the boat ramp
Installation of features to tell the cultural and historical story of the area
Creating more open green space for new picnic areas
Upgrading the public rest rooms
Adding more public car parking, including dedicated boat trailer parking for the boating community.
Coastal margin planting to help protect the area and reduce erosion to the esplanade foreshore reserve
Established pedestrian connections throughout the area to improve visibility to moving traffic.
