Rodney District Council adopted a Structure Plan for Waimauku on 21 May 2009 which will guide the development of the town over the next 20 years.
A key aim of the Plan is to preserve Waimauku’s rural village character, which local residents have said they like about the town.
The Council consulted widely to develop the Structure Plan. 189 submissions were received on the draft Plan. There was a high level of support for most of the proposals in the Plan and it was adopted with some minor amendments as a result of submissions.
The Structure Plan identifies the Waimauku Station Road area as a site for shops and office activities over the longer term. The Plan allows for limited residential expansion around southwest Waimauku over the short term.
The town is expected to be connected to a public wastewater system in around 10 years time. Over the longer term, once a wastewater system is in place, the Plan allows for limited residential expansion in southeast Waimauku.
The Council intends to implement the Structure Plan by progressing changes to its District Plan in stages over a number of years.
