A Community run project restoring native plants and animals to Island Bay's coastal hills at Tapu Te Ranga Marae.
We've reworked this look and feel of the Manawa Karioi website to make using it a better experience.
Most of the information on the old website should be found here, but leave a comment here if you think there's something important missing.
The Homebush Road Residents Group is currently campaigning to save the Ngauranga bush from being zoned Residential in a change to the District plan.
On May 27, 2009, the Wellington City Council voted to change the zoning of the Ngauranga bush from Open Space to Residential, and the vote passed only by a majority of two.
If you take a look at the menus at the top of the screen, you will notice the new Wildlife sightings link, which allows registered users to detail sightings of wildlife seen around Manawa Karioi.
As Manawa Karioi develops and grows, people are noticing more and more local species appearing, and we thought it would be useful to provide people with a section where they could note these sightings.
