Feedback sought on Curio Bay draft plan
Monday, 5 October 2009Public comment is sought on the Curio Bay Recreation Reserve Draft Management Plan, which has just been released by the Southland District Council. Council reserves officer Leighton Hare said the plan is open for consultation for six weeks from 1 October. Copies of the plan are available for perusal at the Council area offices in Invercargill, Riverton, Otautau, Te Anau, Stewart Island, Lumsden and Wyndham. A PDF copy is also available on the Council website www.southlanddc.govt.nz
"The aim of the plan is to ensure the reserve is managed well and to set guidelines for its future use and development," Mr Hare said.
"It's important we hear from the general public about the reserve as it is becoming a very popular area," he said.
The Curio Bay Recreation Reserve is located between Haldane and Waikawa, about 88km east of Invercargill. It is on the south head of Porpoise Bay and adjoins the Curio Bay Scientific Reserve, which contains the petrified forest remains. This reserve is managed by the Department of Conservation.
