We are a Coastal Advisory Panel of iwi partners and community representatives who have been asked to guide our community response to the impacts of sea level rise on our environment, our community and Council Infrastructure. We are nearly at the end of project and want to hear from you before we finalise our recommendations for Council’s considerations.

We have drawn on robust, transparent and accessible technical, social and economic evidence, indigenous knowledge, and wider community input to develop our draft recommendations.

Once finalised, our recommendations will help guide the development of District Plan provisions to manage coastal issues and develop an approach to help the district deal with coastal hazards in the future.

Feedback on draft recommendations

We're reaching out to you, our Kāpiti Coast District communities, to find out how you think our district should respond to coastal hazards from sea-level rise.

We want to hear your thoughts on:

  • Our draft preferred pathways for coastal adaptation
  • Our draft optional thresholds for adaptation planning; and
  • Our recommendation for the approach for the future coastal district plan change.

Either come along to one of our in-person engagement pop-ups or fill out the survey below.

We've created a series of factsheets to provide further information about:

Our preferred pathways have been developed based on the unique typography and communities within the district. For that reason, the 38km of the district have been divided up into adaptation areas and then further focused into management units.

We've put together these info sheets to make it easier to understand what the CAP is proposing for each of the pathways. including the costs for each. Please refer to the guide on how to read the pathway info sheets.
