Take us to 254 Ponsonby Park

Happy New Year from the community-led design (CLD) facilitation group!

And as we are a community-led design process, everyone is invited to contribute a design if they so choose. Designers, landscapers, artists, children, poets - you’re all invited and can contact us at info@254ponsonbyrd.org.nz for more information. The final concept design brief and submission requirements are also on the site: www.254ponsonbyrd.org.nz

The deadline for the receipt of the design proposals is: 12 noon, Wednesday 22 February.

We are now beginning to prepare the last consultation event where you get to choose the final park design out of the design proposals.

Following the 22 February deadline, the designs will be taken out to the community via an exhibition on 4 and 5 March. At this event people will be able to select their preferred option.
We will also run an online survey so everyone can have the opportunity to participate. We’ll be doing letterbox drops and email notifications, plus notifications on our Facebook pages (see below) and the website to promote what will be an inspirational event.

The chosen design, and costing of the work, will then be presented to the Waitemata Local Board to advocate for the funds in the next round of council budgeting.

So hang onto your (sun) hats - it’s going to get really good as we start to see the fruits of all of the CLD consultation work in the concept designs for the site at 254 Ponsonby Road. (JENNIFER WARD)
