Following community feedback, throughout 2022, Council upgraded the playgrounds at Chaucer Place, Haumingi Park in Rotoiti, Scott Avenue, Kaingaroa Village and Ngongotahā Domain and began the process for creating new playgrounds at Karenga Park, Boyes Park and Ōhinemutu.

Background

As part of our annual renewals programme council is considering the future of a number of playgrounds and reserves in Rotorua.

Before making any changes, we would like to understand how people in Rotorua use their local reserves, playgrounds and open spaces and what they value most about them.

We want to be able to provide spaces that will be safe, fun and accessible for local whānau.

We asked the community for feedback on these playgrounds:

• Karenga Park Reserve
• Fairview & Linton Park East
• Chaucer Place & Ngongotahā Domain.
