Gisborne District Council is inviting Wainui residents to an evening community hui on Thursday, August 1, to help shape plans that will affect the area. 

Council director for sustainable futures Jo Noble says the hui will focus on various projects integral to Wainui’s development, all falling under the Tairāwhiti Resource Management Plan review. 

Projects include updates on the Tairāwhiti Resource Management Plan itself, the Waimatā-Pakarae Catchment Plan, the Stormwater Integrated Catchment Management Plan, the Wainui Coastal Adaptation Plan and the review of the rural lifestyle provisions along Lloyd George Rd. 

Noble emphasised the value of community collaboration. 

“The Wainui community is encouraged to attend this hui, take part in the discussions, contribute to the development of our plans, and help shape Wainui’s future.” 

●The meeting will run from 5.30pm to 7.30pm at the Wainui Beach School hall. For more information, contact the Tairāwhiti Resource Management Plan review team at TRMP@gdc.govt.nz
