Consultation has concluded
We're investigating options for the permanent Waikanae Library and Service Centre replacement, following the closure of the building in November 2018. We’re committed to having a library in Waikanae, so we’ve been working with a Project Advisory Group made up of community members, iwi, and business and school representatives, which confirmed the preferred location for the future library is in Mahara Place.
Share your ideas for a new Library/ Service Centre below.
Your comments will inform our Long-term Plan bid for a new or upgraded facility.
Note: responses collected through community events and drop boxes located at libraries and Council Service Centres are shown under the name 'Community voices'. We have included these for transparency and reporting purposes.
