Draft management plan for Paritūtū area
NPDC, Ngā Mahanga a Tairi and Ngāti Te Whiti have drafted a management plan for the wider Paritūtū reserve area to improve its environment, biodiversity and visitor experience.
The project partners want to reconnect the community and mana whenua with the reserve and also restore the whenua, which has a rich cultural history.
