30/4/23: OBRA Open Space and Recreation Strategy Submission
OBRA was one of 1452 organisations and individuals who made a submission on Wellington City Council's open spaces and recreation strategy.
We noted that the Ōwhiro Bay catchment and wider community is home to some of Pōneke’s special open spaces, such as Te Kopahou Reserve, Taputeranga Marine Reserve, and Ōwhiro Stream, one of Wellington’s only remaining daylighted streams.
Other open spaces and recreation areas in the area include Tawatawa and Oku Street Reserves, Pariwhero (Red Rocks), Happy Valley Park, Mokai Kainga (Ōwhiro Bay community gardens) and the Ōwhiro Bay playground.
We also have many berms and verges around the Ōwhiro Bay area, including the Ōwhiro Bay Parade berm/community lawn. Moreover, we are increasingly part of the ‘halo effect’ of birds expanding beyond Zealandia and the Capital Kiwi project is happening in Te Kopahou Reserve.
