Further Information
Westland District Council has a Reserves and Environs Community Group which meets on the second Tuesday at 4pm of every third month (commencing in February each year) to discuss concerns/issues/solutions about local reserves. Usual agenda items include the ongoing development of the Hokitika Beachfront, Cass Square, Lazar Park, Preston’s Bush, Prosser’s Bush and Wadeson Island.
The group published a Hokitika & Environs Reserves Management Plan in April 2000. Copies are available on request.
