Tauriko neighbourhood

Tauranga is home to more than 100 playgrounds, many of which need to be renewed in the next decade.

Upgrading Cameron Road and the waters network beneath it has an important role to play in providing more homes for people in our city.

Tauriko West, on the edge of Tauranga, is one of the large-scale urban developments proposed to support our region’s growth, delivering a new community with up to 4000 new homes, potentially starting around 2027.

Variation 1 to Plan Change 33 rezoning Tauriko West Urban Growth Area for urban development.

We are upgrading Taurikura Drive between SH36 and Whiore Avenue to support the growth of the Tauriko area.

The land where the Battle of Te Ranga took place will be restored to tell the story of what occurred and educate visitors about its importance.

The plan change will rezone land from Rural to Tauriko Industrial, plus related zones.

The purpose of Plan Change 34 is to change the zone of a small area between the proposed Tauriko Business Estate extension and SH29 and where the land use is predominantly lifestyle.

To help meet the housing requirements of a growing city, a portion of land on Upper Ohauiti Road is proposed to be rezoned to a Medium Density Residential Zone.

We’re removing the old Tauriko Settlers Hall, which is no longer fit for purpose.

Keenan Road is an ideal location to provide more residential housing to cater for the growth we are experiencing in Tauranga.

We live in a wonderful part of New Zealand and in Welcome Bay there are many great parks and reserves enjoyed by the community.

Our city is growing fast. The Fifteenth Avenue, Turret Road and Welcome Bay Road route links many communities and is going to become increasingly important as our city grows.

Sections of the park are closed for tree harvesting and track renewal from September 2024 to late 2025.

Contributing to the long-term health and wellbeing of the catchment by identifying opportunities and investment priorities to deliver positive outcomes in freshwater management.

Council’s ‘Consultation with Tangata Whenua on Resource Consent Applications Policy 2006’ requires updating to ensure that it’s fit for purpose.

The policy direction paves the way for services and assets to stay in councils' ownership and control, while operating under a new service delivery model. 

Setting speed limits is more than just a number on a sign – it’s all about people and how we keep them safe.

Ensuring access to a secure and safe supply of water for our city is a priority for Council.
