Tauranga City Council is offering residents free coffee and cake in return for people having their say on what they would like for the future of Masonic Park.
The council is organising a park open day on Tuesday, June 15 from 12-2pm and staff are encouraging the public to come along and share their thoughts.
The Masonic Park site, the grass area on The Strand opposite the council office, between The Horny Bull and Hot on the Rocks, was historically home to the Masonic Hotel and is now an open space reserve.
Council staff are in the process of developing a master plan for the site that will look at the physical features as well as any rules and guidelines surrounding the site. The feedback from the open day will contribute to the master plan.
The Masonic Park development is part of the City Centre Strategy, which was developed to provide a guide to major change to land use, built form, public spaces and access in Tauranga’s city centre during the next 25-30 years.
For people who can’t make it on the day, there is a feedback form available on the council’s website www.tauranga.govt.nz or phone 07 577 7000.
