Share Your Voice – what you said

We’ve been talking with residents of eastern Porirua, to listen and understand their views about what they value and like about their neighbourhoods and what could change with the opportunities that the redevelopment will bring.

The topics for discussion have included housing, getting around the area, the environment, parks and open spaces, shopping and town centres, and community facilities and services. We will incorporate this feedback when we prepare a comprehensive plan to guide the project.
