Mahere Whakatauira Mana Whakahaere Papa Rēhia ā-Rohe o Waiheke Waiheke Local Park Management Plan

The Waiheke Local Park Management Plan covers 125 local parks on Waiheke that are owned or managed by Auckland Council.

It does not include Rangihoua Reserve and Onetangi Sports Park, which have a separate reserve management plan.

The plan provides a policy framework that will guide decision-making for these parks over the next 10 years.

It also provides direction on Waiheke local park:

• use
• protection
• development.
