Waikato-Tainui Annual Report 2015

RUAKURA

In September 2014 the Board of Inquiry convened

by the Environmental Protection Authority

approved the rezoning of around 500 hectares

of Ruakura land owned by TGH from ‘rural’ to

employment and residential – a key foundational

step for the long term, 50 year re-development

of this area to a live, work and play community

incorporating a logistics hub.

Since the favourable planning decision, TGH has

been working with the Hamilton City Council to

enshrine the changes in the Operative District

Plan as well as the Proposed District Plan and is

expecting to lodge the first resource consents for

light industrial usage later this year.

Supporting The City’s River Vision

Mayor Julie Hardaker and the Hamilton City

Council have outlined an exciting vision to

incorporate the Waikato River as an integral part

of the city’s day-to-day life. To support this vision

TGH has donated a strip of land adjoining the river,

to enable the joining-up of a proposed walkway.
