About this project
Wellington City Council is commencing development of a new Coastal Reserves Management Plan to provide direction for the management, protection, and enhancement of Wellington’s coastal reserves, parks, and beaches.
The intention is to create an integrated coastal reserve management plan that will replace the existing South Coast Management Plan 2002
Our coast is a taonga and a special sanctuary where we connect with nature and each other. It is critical that we have a plan in place for its future which balances leisure, access, climate adaptation, and recreation with environmentally sustainable outcomes.
The purpose of the management plan will be to:
Guide Council decision-making about how our coastal spaces are used, enjoyed, managed, and protected.
Set out a vision, objectives, and rules for the long-term management and enhancement of our urban coastal parks and beaches.
