What is the Reserves Management Plan?

As an administering body, the Hurunui District Council has the responsibility of preparing policy for the management of reserves within its control. Reserves management aims to ensure the district’s reserves are managed in the best way possible to allow community use and enjoyment, while preserving and protecting them for future generations.

What does the Reserves Management Plan cover?

Historically, reserve/s management plans have been prepared on an ad-hoc basis for individual reserves or groups of reserves within the district. This approach does not allow for the recognition of the commonality of reserve issues within the district. This draft management plan aims to provide a consistent management approach to the district’s reserves.

Why are we reviewing our Reserves Management Plan?

It is recommended that Reserves Management Plans (RMP) be reviewed every 10 years.

Since the 2012 Plan was adopted, there have been changes to the number of our reserves, and how we use and manage each of these reserves.
