Northern Reserves Management

Wellington City Council has approved a Northern Reserves Management Plan that covers 106 parks, reserves and sportsgrounds in the northern suburbs between Ngauranga and Tawa.

Northern Reserves Management Plan

Management Framework

Native forest - Wilf Mexted Reserve

The plan provides the Council with a framework for day-to-day management and decision-making for these reserve areas over the next 10 years.

It also identifies future reserve requirements in new subdivisions such as Lincolnshire Farm and Stebbings Valley.

The plan takes a holistic view of the reserve network and its ecological, landscape, recreational and cultural values. It is aligned with the Northern Growth Management Framework.
