AUCKLAND COUNCIL REZONES LAND BORDERING IHUMĀTAOAuckland Council has agreed to add almost nine hectares to the Ōtuataua Stonefields Reserve, which borders the land at Ihumātao. It's among the 233 hectares the council's Planning Committee has decided to rezone to public open space in the city. The 8.9 hectare land had been zoned for future urban development. Auckland Mayor Phil Goff told Morning Report rezoning the land was the council's gesture towards find a resolution at Ihumātao. "It's council-owned land so there was no problem in rezoning it, there was no extra cost to the ratepayer, 9 hectares of land is a significant size piece of land, it adds to the Stonefields area and it says look we recognise this area is important, it's the area that's probably the oldest inhabited area in the whole of Auckland, Tāmaki Makaurau and that is something that we can put on the table..."..... www.newsie.co.nz/news/159022-auckland-council-rezones-land-bordering-ihumtao.html
