Structure Plan consultationsThere have been a few changes to the village residential landscape in the lastcouple of years, and this looks to continue in the future. Patumahoe VillageIncorporated was created to give the residents, property and business owners inPatumahoe a collective voice in order to liaise with local government andplanners on any issues arising from this growth. Our current planning projectintends to make a submission to Auckland Council in 2012 in relation to the

community spaces and facilities that are provided in order to mitigate theeffects of this unprecendented growth.

Street parties & Village Open DayIn order to kick off the consultation process with style, we are asking residentsto host street parties to generate discussion and ideas on the issues that havebeen identified during previous meetings. Come along and have a say, and takethe opportunity to meet all your neighbours and make some new friends.

All information that is gathered at these street parties will be presented back tothe community at a Village Open Day, which will also launch the communitywebsite. All welcome to attend, all comments will be recorded.
