Milford Town Centre Plan – draft for public comment
Have your say on Milford’s future
Devonport–Takapuna Local Board is developing a centre plan for Milford’s town centre. Two public meetings were held in Milford earlier this year and local organisations were included in the Working Party. The Board invites all Milford people to provide feedback on the draft plan, which was released today, Monday 10 November.
The draft Milford Town Centre Plan focuses on improvements to the town centre itself and strengthening connections between it and the surrounding natural features of Milford Beach, Lake Pupuke and the Wairau Estuary. It identifies the vision, outcomes and projects which could be implemented - dependent on funding - to enhance Milford over the next 30 years. The plan suggests short term projects (0-5 years) and more aspirational projects for the medium and long term (6-30 years). These will be supported by the council, the board and/or led by community groups. We want to know if we have focussed on the right things and proposed a vision for Milford’s future that we can all support.
